53/10 Ltd.

[Ampguy]

This is one of my favorite guitars. Does anyone have an estimate how made were produced? I know that they had a fairly low production number, but had private stock tops and 53/10 pickups.

I want to say it was limited to 100 guitars

 

[Herr Squid]

I remember 100 too.

 

[Going Modal]

Yup, 100 as the others above have stated. They were produced in 4 colors--25 guitars in each: Natural, Fire Red Burst, Black Slate, and Black Gold. Satin all over (front, back, and back of neck.) Here's a good group shot of them from another thread:

man these are so hot!!

As great as these guitars look, play and sound, I was quite surprised that they weren't mentioned in the Burrluck's 2014 PRS Book. I own #33 and wish that I could find another one in a different color. It may be my best PRS out of twelve.

 

[Tonart]

Yeah I can also attest to how good these are. Intense woody tone and unstoppable energy. I had mine refinished and glossed up!

I was hoping you’d share another photo of this beautiful guitar. Thanks.

I only have a sample of one PRS. But it's definitely the best out of that group of one! I think 6 out of the 100 came to the UK, 2 in natural. I actually saw the other one advertised but when I enquired they said it was an old add and it had already sold - but, they knew someone with the same model locally and could ask them if they wanted to sell, so that's how I ended up with mine

just found one on the verb ... black slate .. yep Watchlisted ...

 

[gush]

I'd empty my parts drawers for one of these!

 

[gush]

I had to go to reverb and check it out.

OMG can't remember the last time I wanted to whip out the debit card and hit buy now like I do right now.

Especially when you have people talking about the woody tone.

UGH

If somebody presented the one Tone-y posted as trade bait for my 86cu24 I might be inclined to work out a deal.

It is a stunning guitar and I'm guessing it has tone to match.

Plus....in the right guitar, 5310s are magical.

Oh holy s*** that's the serial # immediately before mine. Different colors, though...
(Lot more than I paid, though.)

My YouTuber friend is borrowing my 53/10 at the moment and has posted a few videos with it over the last few weeks.
