Gives me some ideas

 

[Dusty Chalk]

Stock Seymour Duncans? Ugly birds?

 

[xjbebop]

I'd rock that...

 

[Woundtight]

Very nice, indeed.

 

[jfb]

Very nice, indeed.

That certainly gives me some ideas. Twin PTC builds bro! You in?!

Gotta find the right donor...

I like it a lot. With a trem it would be awesome.

It would've originally looked like this one: https://reverb.com/item/90557-prs-paul-reed-smith-singlecut-soapbar-2008-satin-black

I get the impression the seller is a luthier and did the work. Looks really sharp, the sort of thing I'd go for if I ever went PS.

And yes, Seymour Duncan P-90s were original equipment on the PRS soapbar guitars.

me too, but I wonder if the PTC would do this. I know they are doing dog hair finishes on PS guitars.

Oh, okay, I thought PRS did everything in house, down to the pickups, that must have been a recent (since 2007) transition.

Still...replacing the birds with dots? Alright, yes, MOP dots, so...yeah, plus. And I do like the doghair finish, that's unique -- and Dusty like unique.

And yes, it does sound like he did it all himself.

EDIT: Oh, and he's from Baltimore, maybe I can commission him to refinish some of my ...er... "eye candy challenged" guitars.

The steps backwards!

 

[rugerpc]

I didn't notice that it was a soapy before I posted. mea culpa.

They've always made the humbuckers, but they used to farm out the singles. I guess it was with the 513 when they started making the specialty stuff.

Funny....


I read the description...and what I took away from it was he, or someone OTHER than the PTC did this.

I was suspicious that there is no photos of the headstock serial number.

I don't know much about SE Singlecuts...but is there a chance this is a knockoff??

I felt the "humorous" write-up was just a way around describing it as a true PRS.

Just my feeling....

 

[g.wizz]

Striking

 

[CVS]

Sorry - for me - no birds - no go

 

[iahawk36]

Now THAT is cool!!

 

[RedGuitars]

And his reverb account is called debt repayment plan... plan is, buy a $500 PRS SE and sell it for five times that amount...
