'87 PRS Bass Faded whale blue

Man, she's put in honest work!! You can tell the real deal from the fake, it looks like it worked it's whole life and wasn't just keyed and screwdrivered to death.
 
Sweet! I hadn't even seen this thread when I got my wife a 1987 PRS Bass-5 about 10 days after you started this thread!

The one I got her is a solid finish color, red - love that faded flame on yours!

It looks like both yours and hers have been well played over the years, which is nice to see, especially for all those folks you have said "PRS can only do 6-string guitars well" or "the early basses weren't a copy of a F Jazz or Precision, so they are useless".

Fretboards look to be equally well played - interesting how the Brazzy RW has aged and "stained" with years of playing.

Awesome find!
