59/09s pair very well with full BRW necks. I find 57/08s better with other wood varieties, but my ears aren’t the greatest.
Gone, but never forgotten - a ME I SCT loaded with 59/09s.
What a beautiful guitar. Gold hardware? or is it the lighting?59/09s pair very well with full BRW necks. I find 57/08s better with other wood varieties, but my ears aren’t the greatest.

Right, the CITES-held ME 1's were released in 2012, and depending on when they were finished, they came with either RP's or 57/08s. Pre-CITES ME's came with RP pickups installed.

That is an incredible addition to an incredible collection! Congrats on a great score!! What a beauty!!!
That collection will need to be trimmed . Overflowing at the seams as you can see

Wow... Just..... Wow....So many of you know, of the two PRS Braz rosewood necked legends, the 513 Rosewood is my favourite and I overcompensated by getting 3 of them.
That said, the Modern Eagle 1 is legendary. And it is not everyday you get to chance upon an unplayed, one owner example.
This was the case for me yesterday, as I picked one up from a wonderful gentleman, who also watches my Youtube channel. He's more of a collector though he does play as well and has some wonderful instruments. Around 16 years ago, he had bought new from the local PRS dealer, a charcoal ME1 hardtail and essentially kept it in its case since then, occasionally taking it out to admire it.
It is remarkable. Pretty much frozen in time, flawless, no scratches, no oxidation. Haven't gotten round to doing a video yet but be rest assured, it is coming.
I think it makes a good pair with my other ME1, the one that I think was the last one to be bought new (by myself).
I'll let the photos do the talking from here on

The contents justify the wait

The guitar kills.
Your guitars are nicer than mine. Your studio is nicer than mine. Your rug looks nicer, too.
I'm clearly behind the 8-ball here, and it's clearly time for me to retire to a hermit's cave and never, ever think I'm cool again.
"It was time for you to do that the day you were born."
"Yes, but I was too young to realize it then."

But you’ve got THEE most righteous lamps I have ever seen.
They say photographs deceive. Those who have come into my ‘studio’ call it it a guitar closet. Hey wait, I guess that sounds pretty good
I am sorry to hear that. Wish you all the best

Where is that speedo pic
Dang........I'd ship my parts drawers for one of those!!!

"I thought they were from Pottery Barn."
"Well, that's basically the same thing, isn't it?"

Those are both spectacular. You just can’t beat the feel of nekkid rosewood.
