Please help me ID this model

[Riffmax]

Greetings, all. Brand new here and need to confirm the specific information on my PRS. Here is what I know for sure. It's a 2001 double cut 10 top with 22 frets, stop tailpiece, 2 humbuckers, bird inlays, gold wire for headstock signature. I'm pretty sure it's a McCarty model, but want to be 100% sure before I sell it. The things I unsure of is the style of tuners and knobs, if the birds are mother-of-pearl or abalone, which pickups (specifically) and if it's what is referred to as an archtop. The serial number is 1 56966. If I have left anything out that will confirm and specify the exact model, please let me know. Photos attached.

Looks like a McCarty with a rosewood neck. Nice guitar. Tuner buttons make me think it, otherwise would have said Custom 22. Also that a funky bridge post on the right…..

Looks like a Tonepros locking stud missing its cap.

I thought that was for a wango bar?

If that's the case, that should be easy to replace.

That's what I'm thinking. I seem to remember that's what hubby said it was, but aren't there different models of McCarty?

I can't get the translator to work and I don't read Chinese. But thank you!

There are, but yours is a straight up McCarty with a rosewood neck. Other versions came along in later years.

Original PRS Forum (from many years ago) truss rod cover. A member designed it. Way before my time, though.

Got it. Thank you!

Yes, it that on it when we got it in the mid 2000's. If I wanted to sell this as 100% original, I would have to change that back to a period correct truss rod cover, if I'm not mistaken. That, and get the replacement cap for the bridge.

Correct

You’ll want to fix or replace the bridge post. Easy to do. The truss rod cover isn’t going to make much of a difference in value, and may be worth something to someone as it is.

Guitar Center has been selling rosewood neck McCartys used for about $2,500 recently, as a ballpark figure for you.

 

[Riffmax]

Correct

By the way, do you know if the McCarty came with a wango bar in 2001?
