Real or Fake?

[coby_bryanttt]

Hi- thinking about buying this PRS SE Custom 24 used tomorrow. Wanted to get an extra set of eyes on it because I am no expert on whether it could potentially be fake/having anything concerning.

I noticed that the knobs do not appear to be stock. Based on serial number looks to be 2009.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Legit.

It’s real.
These creeps will try and bootleg anything.
There's a video about a fake LTD on YouTube.
I guess anything is possible.

I really like the body color.

Looks real, but... is is possible that somebody sanded down the back of the neck from its factory gloss finish?

Real deal.

I can imagine someone bootlegging a Private Stock or a Wood Library. That would be worth the time and effort. I’d speculate that any guitar with a value under $2500.00 probably wouldn’t be.

Changing the knobs takes a whole lot of nothing. That’s a zricote veneer, my friend, very nice.
