35th Anniversary PRS SE Custom 24 wood documentation

[Jfernan1]

Hi, I bought a preloved 35th Anniversary PRS SE Custom 24 from Reverb and the seller bought it from Sweetwater. I am trying to export it out of the US as I live abroad and the US fish and wildlife dept need to know the origin of the Genus, Species and Country of Origin for the Rosewood/Mahogany. I have pictures of the guitar and Sweetwater check sheet as well. I have emailed Sweetwater and PRS as well and got no response, can any member direct me or advise what to do now. Thanks.

IDK all the way on this. My logic says this was a guitar manufactured in East Asia, imported to the US and most likely fine to export back across the pond.

More knowledgeable people will add to this, I hope.

Congrats on the axe and good luck.

Thanks I hope so too. I see no logic to the hold up given it was imported to the US and now being exported out.

I thought there was an exemption brought in for musical instruments, unless it was Brazilian RW. I may be wrong.
