Early PRS CE 22 with birds value?

[Lkdog]

Ran across a used 1994 with birds in good shape. Gold hardware. All stock. Dragon 1s.
Is this particularly rare in some way?
I know the early ones in general with Dragon 1s are well liked.
Would you pay more for one with birds?

Did a search and found out a little info. Sounds like they are fairly rare and people pay a modest premium for one.
Interesting.

Agreed. Birds on an older CE are rare. I don't have one but always have an eye out for a good deal.
They get a lot of love here for sure.

We’re gonna need to see some pics…

I wouldn’t pay over 2k for one. Used prices are still inflated.

If it's a wide-fat carve, you'd have the winning trifecta!

Especially if it’s a Stoptail!

DAMN! It's in Maryville, just a few miles from me. Why did I click that link? Now I might have to investigate!

She messaged me that she would probably take $1800.
She was hesitant to ship. I am in Iowa.
I bet you could get a better local deal.

Yep, I need to see/play/hear it. If it's not wide-fat I won't be interested, BUT it might be wide-fat. I have a '95 CU22 that I bought new for $1500, 10-top, birds. She would need to come down a bit.

 

[sergiodeblanc]

Ehh… that’ll sell.

They didn’t make many CEs with birds.

I saw one for sale asking $1300, Without Birds, What's it worth? In Mint Cond,

• PAUL REED SMITH CE24 USA. made in 1992

PRS. vintage electric guitar built in the old factory by hand (before Paul Reed bought his factory and they went to assembly line instead of being hand made.

Great price in this day and age.
