Private Stock Friday

[docteurseb]

The quilted maple must have been stained separately I suppose before being fitted on. Probably trial fitted before staining..

The thing is that however precise a CNC machine may be you likely still have to glue the pieces together before final sanding the fret board.
You could dye the wood throughout first so the color is preserved after sanding, but you could not to achieve the linear gradient this fretboard has.
Maybe it's as simple as sealing the Koa sufficiently deeply first...

Im new to the PRS world, these are unreal!

 

[Shawn@PRS]

@Shawn@PRS Seriously deserves a Private Stock for starting this sh!t.

That's what I'm talking about!

 

[Shawn@PRS]

Those CNCs are wonderful ;-)

I was wondering how they managed to stain the sky without it spilling at all onto the wood (koa?) used for the sand/ground.

Lser cut inlays and boards. All of the pieces are joined together and the inlay is taped-ff while the stain is applied to the wooden fretboard.

That's what I'm talking about!

Literally millions of views and it’s gotta be the most successful and anticipated social media marketing “campaign” that PRS has across all platforms.

Dude, who do we call? Do we just @Hunter@PRS relentlessly until he says something to Paul or whoever’s in charge?

We could try to @Paul, not sure it will work...

Those two galaxy/Nebula builds from @Brian G are looking very very good.

That's Ziricote, if Im not mistaken

 

[docteurseb]

Sure looks like it with that typical spider webbing figure.

 

[d2g]

Sure looks like Ziricote - like my T60e which I absolutely love. A killer AG!

Thanks for another great edition Hunter!

Any way to tell what serial numbers are in progress?
