NUGD a special 594

Awesome and beautiful natural wood/ Maple binding. Why anything above an SE comes with Madagascan plastic for any sort of binding is nuts ( I know cost). I also agree with the OP some of those early 90’s CU24’s are awesome as I have a few. Wide thins and no silly plastic. Beautiful guitar enjoy!

I will mention that the maple binding on this neck looks particularly spectacular.

When I discovered the listing I called the store regarding the neck profile (carve) for this guitar, it was listed as “C”. What did that mean, could it be different than the 594 pattern vintage? Sure enough they checked the PS certificate for me and it said wide-thin.
Score! My favorite neck profiles are pattern and wide-thin. Not a huge fan of wide-fat and pattern vintage although I own/owned and play guitars with those profiles. Pattern vintage and wide-fat can fatigue my hand quicker and I always hoped PRS would produce 594’s with different neck profiles and BAM.. there it was. I moved a few of my “less played” guitars to get this one. I’ve been playing it a few days now and totally bonding with it. Neck profile reminds me of my 1990 and 91 custom 24’s.

I love the Private Stock build, flame maple neck/headstock binding is beautiful, Brazilian rosewood fingerboard/headstock-veneer/tuner buttons, figured mahogany neck, back wood is lightweight African ribbon mahogany, and a dirty looking curly maple top. Such a beautiful and great playing high end instrument. Happy days!

I like that one a lot. That is one of my all time favorite PRS finishes. Congrats!

Thanks! I'm really digging this neck. PRS should really consider making some runs of 594's with the pattern thin and pattern regular neck options.

If they ever do a run with thinner necks I’d have a hard time not buying 2 lol.

Here's a few pics in the sunlight from when I owned this guitar. Glad it's in good hands.

Looks awesome!! Still does. I had to spend some time cleaning the bridge and tail piece. Brass parts were tarnished a bit, lots of dust in that bridge. Pickup covers also needed a deep cleaning. I’m surprised the music store didn’t do anything about it especially when selling a high end guitar like this. I didn’t overshine the brass parts. Just wanted them to look good.
