Is this eriza verde?

[Anthony88]

Was inquiring about this guitar, the two pics are the same guitar. The seller sent me a picture in normal store lighting, and the other was a "professional" shot for reverb.

It doesn't quite look like eriza verde to me. It's like a yellow-y/green burst. I'm not too familiar with how PRS does there colours, so im not sure what else it can be.

They don't have any of the original paperwork to verify what colour it is, just calling it eriza verde.

It doesn’t look like Eriza Green to me either. But I like it anyways! Here’s a picture of my PRS Studio in Eriza Green. I’m sharing the Sweetwater photo as that is the best quality pic that I have so far.

Yep agreed. I've even owner an SE 24-08 in EV and it looked way different.

This one is still a stunner, just a weird colour.

I agree. It’s a beautiful looking guitar!

That is eriza Verde or it was at one time. I'm guessing that's a 2011? Studio from the first run with the NF pickups given it has a stoptail.

Correct! 2011 with 57/08 pickups

Interesting, so that's the way it used it to look?

Not quite. I remember that color when it came out being slightly darker than the Sweetwater picture posted above.

Leprechaun Tooth?

Snot burst

 

[watelessness]

looks nothing like my old stoptail studio in eriza verde. use of the mod cat decoder is advised

I think that's an Eriza Verde where the blue stain faded, leaving the yellow center and the prominent sprayed green around the edge. My own 2012 studio (faded blue burst IIRC) has done about the same thing.

It may look much greener under the bridge and the pickup rings where the wood hasn't gotten as much light.

Looks like one of the Jade Burst finishes

 

[JohnnyThul]

I'd also say Jade Glow, or maybe Rainforest Glow .

The was my thought, as well.

This is what I was thinking too. You can tell it is a burst by the darker color around the edge.

If you have the serial number email PRS and ask them.

Leprechaun Tooth?

Seaweed green?

Great idea! Just sent them an email

Whatever it is, it is a "burst". And I have seen Eriza Verde bursts that looked similar (too "yellow" in the center), because the stain application is trying to maintain some "darker" green for the burst while still having that lighter "lime-yellow-ish" for the center. e.g. this recent Reverb listing is what they aim for, I suppose:

Might also be a color balance/saturation thing in the top listing. Or, as also noted, maybe the finish has suffered some blue dye fading.

OTOH, if you like the look, does it matter whether it is called Eriza Verde or "shinksma splat" or "rotting leprechaun"?

Agreed, it's a beauty and it doesn't matter the colour. Just very curious as I've never seen it before.

But the seller won't budge on the price, which is too high IMO
