I've noticed that through the years the Prs signature on the headstock has had slight changes made to it. It seems that it has become larger over time. Does anyone have info one when changes were made? It would be helpful information to have when trying to estimate a guitar's rough year of manufacture when pics of the back of the headstock aren't available. Thanks
 
Yep, and the newest change was a couple years ago. It got bigger still.
 
There was the early screen printed small one.

That gave away to the raised sticker one. This one has changed slightly over time. Still used on Bolt-On and S2.

Then they started inlaying abalone on the Artist Package.

Then they started inlaying corian on the regular ones when they started giving all the Core models the veneer.

For a couple years in there it was really cartoonish. 2013

This is how the Core guitars look now:

The Paul's Guitar has a huge signature on it.
