I have been pretty good about not buying any PRSi in the last year - my last purchase was the P24, last April - about 11 months. And I've been confident that because I had other expenses to account for throughout 2016 that I was not going to procure another guitar. I even used my old Jedi Mind Trick of saying "if I take a new group photo of my guitars it means I am doomed to buy one within a month afterwards, thus obsoleting the photo, so I will avoid taking pictures! Aha!"
But I did have some searches/alerts on eBay for a certain model, mainly so I could monitor the typical price ranges and see how they fared. Well, that was either a really bad or really good idea, because a particular variation of the model got listed that was an absolute match for my expectations. It was an auction, and I knew I was not likely to win it, if only because I'd blow the last-minute-bid timing game. So I expected to pass it by. I thought I'd check other non-auction selling sites just to see whether this particular combination of features was common to the model, and I found the guitar listed elsewhere. After some fair negotiations, we agreed the deal.
To help distract me while I wait for it to arrive, I decided to post a couple of small crops from the seller's photos to hint at what it is. This is probably way too easy for some folks, but I'm curious what happens.
I'll start with this one:
