DC 245s. Short scales rock.

[11top]

My favorite PRS models are SC short scales. However, I’m a big fan of DC 245s as well.

Here are 3 I had made during a stretch a few years back:

1. The original honey gold. This color was conceived from a picture of a Hamer I owned and sent to the PS team. They did a great job of matching the color, and it became popular as a color choice.











2. The 2nd salmon. I was walking through the PS finishing room looking for a color. I noticed this cool Santana on a rack and asked “What’s that?” They took it off the shelf and told me it was Carlos’ new guitar and a brand new color, “salmon” created for him. Good enough for THE MAN; good enough for me!









3. The original Sandstorm. I’ve always loved natural finishes, so why not create a fade into natural? Crazy angry maple and quilted mahogany to boot.

Very nice!! I especially love the salmon!!

Meh...where’s the tone knob?



Sorry, that’s part of the Phenny-mod.

You consistently snag some of the most incredible mahogany blanks on the planet. Those necks and backs don’t get enough credit. Utterly spectacular.

Dude...do you have ANY that aren't killer tops/backs/necks???

Bangin’!

Meh...where’s the tone knob?

Those are for basses.


I too love the 24.5 scale guitars, they’re practically all I’ve been playing for the past few years.

3 more reasons I should not be hanging out on a guitar forum with an empty guitar fund. Beauties!

Fantastic wood selections my good man.

Astonishing instruments! I have but a lowly Zach Meyers (so far), but can definitely tell a difference between it and my 24.75 SG. Liking it so far...
