Best PRS With a Maple Neck

[AZGiant]

I have always been more of a maple neck guy, probably because of my early love for strats. Curious what you all think is the best maple neck PRS to go after. I am not really interested in a Silver Sky, unless I can get a hell of a deal on one.

DW CE-24, it's awesome and more versatile than most could possibly ever imagine.

The CU22 Soapbar special run was pretty amazing

SAS does it for me.

Cu24 Fatback. Jack Gretz did a WL-24 with a thicker body and a torrified maple neck. There are some floating around out there.

i would love one, since I got my Mateus Asato I am a huge fan of roasted maple.

I've had several with maple necks. All of them sounded quite good. There's a little more lower midrange push in a mahogany neck, but maple necks are very responsive, and a little more upper-midrange.

My Private Stock Custom 22 has a maple neck and it is possibly the best guitar I have ever owned or played in my life. Side note, the fretboard is not maple, just the neck!

SAS all day long. I have an 06 that I am a huge fan of that many others like as well. Mine was the first year they had the 5 way switch on it. It is one of the last ones to go if I had to start selling all of them.

My 2011 DC3. Nothing fancy here. Tobacco Sunburst, moons. Best guitar I own.

My torrefied maple neck on my 594 is my favorite. If you can find one in the carve you like, I highly recommend. I’d love another one in the standard/regular carve.

Was jonesing for one of the WL MEV with a maple neck, but I must say this one has satisfied my maple neck urge well enough.

If we’re talking maple neck / rosewood board, the old core CE-22’s. Otherwise, the Swamp Ash Special for sure.

I agree with Howard

I only have one at the moment Fiore , there have been other really nice ones they all seem to move on for one reason or another.
