PRS SC245 Limited in Jet White...

[Random Gecko]

So, new member. I thought I'd sign up following the news I just got told today that I'm receiving this guitar as a gift from my mother-in-law. Pretty unbelievable gift, I'm sure you'll agree. It's 1 of 100, I'm told?

What should I expect? Anybody else own one here?

If I remember right....they were a limited semi-hollow run of 5 different finishes.

Here's my 25th PRS made for me.

Here's the one I owned and sold. The hardware is different and non locking tuners.

I believe they did these in around 2008, maybe 100 SC245s and 100 Miras...both Jet White with gold hardware. Im not 100% sure on that but thats what I remember!

Welcome, and congrats on an awesome gift! Make sure to post some pics when you get it. We'd love to see it.

Yup. I never heard a total number produced but I do know they were one of those dealer incentives where a dealer got to order one of these for every guitar ordered from factory inventory, Miras were one month, SC245s another.

Cool, interesting.

Does anybody have a full spec rundown?
