1994 PRS Original series - Any info on these?

[PrimeGuitars.com]

Hard to find any info on this series. I have a Proto with a Burled Maple top. Pickups are just labeled PRS (stamped) with no tag.

Were these Braz RW Board?

Neck seems like ribbon mahogany or something like that.

Any info would help.

I'm not familiar with an "original" series. The original PRS guitar was a "Standard" guitar, meaning it was all mahogany. The custom was called a custom because it had a maple top. Is that what you mean? By 1994 they were just called the Standard and the Custom.

No...actually the guitar says ORIGINAL SERIES on the headstock and was a NAMM piece. Also says ORIGINAL SERIES in Cavity

Three posts. You have to upload the pics to a 3rd party site like Imgur or Flickr. Then you can link them from there to your post.

Don’t know anything about it, but based on the control layout, 22 frets and vintage tuners, I wonder if it’s a McCarty Proto.

I'm thinking the same. Looks nice too.

Whatever it is, it’s HOT!
How thick is the body?
Got a good pic of the input jack plate area?

Mighty nice guitar you’ve got there.

Ah yeah I remember seeing that one.

I’d probably ask Joe. I’d probably agree with @bodia though.

Could it be a prototype for the PS program?
A prototype McCarty or Custom 22 would have earlier serial numbers of 92 or 93...

I believe this is one of the guitars before the GOTM PROTO PS Guitar. I was watching this one on Reverb. Great score! Beautiful Guitar
