I've been wanting one of these old Zebra PRS guitars since I first saw them. Pretty rare and usually expensive. I even tried to send a late 80's Studio model to the PTC for a refinish and they would not do the zebra (only would restore to an original finish). Finally I see this one and was able to work out a deal with the seller. All original with a little wear. Probably the skinniest neck I have ever seen on a PRS (about 0.8" depth at the nut and only 0.82" at the 12th fret)__. Surprisingly still easy to play.

Will have to update the winged tuners. I know people are nostalgic for them but they have a lot of play in them.
Debating on keeping the rotary or changing to McCarty switching. I plan on playing this so that is the reason for considering that.

Thanks everyone.
There are signs of use but all original. HFS/VB pickups. It was well cared for.
After going over it I will keep as is with the exception of the Phase II tuner conversion from John Mann that are on order. Great upgrade and completely reversible.
 
Now, for the floor-length kimono to match...
