Quick iPhone pics since I hear all of you like pictures 
I wan to thank James, Sean and Ted at The Guitar Store in Seattle. They’ve put up with my nonsense for years about what a custom build would look like and were a key part of the success of this build. They really helped me quite a bit in determining which specs to go with. James, Sean and Tina did a superb job picking out the woods for me and answering my questions over the phone on wood selection day. Then, later in the process I had what could only be described as a panic attack over the back wood - African hog or South American hog? Everyone was patient while I worked through this I’d be remiss not to mention James Fox, our PRS rep up here in the PNW - very nice guy and helped keep all of us on the same page!
These pics don’t do this beauty justice. Totally nailed that tropical Hapuna Beach color I was going for, really 3D on the woods and of the 7 different Pattern Vintage neck carves I’ve owned at one point, this is the best of the bunch! Totally made it under my 8lbs or less weight requirement do to my bad back, in at 7lbs, 11oz, not easy with the P245 body thickness.
Enjoy the pics while I go play!
