I feel the same way about mine...

You even had a chance to get yours back. Too bad it wasn't at a time when you could have made it happen.

Yup. Wasn't meant to be...

I mean… I agree but I can kinda see how PRS wouldn’t want like 600 employee guitars every 5,10,15, & 20 years diluting the market place.

That's true. But they should be able to do something unique.

Getting a custom made PRS is not unique?

I mean it sounds like they cannot get custom options. Can they?

Go work there for 15 years and find out.

You know back in 2019 I got a guitar from my work for 15 years too! It wasn't a PRS and I didn't really directly pick it. Work overlooked giving me the anniversary presents for 5 and 10 years and I never said anything. I guess my boss realized that and asked my wife what to get. I had picked this up at a music store and said "one of my best bandmates had a guitar exactly like this....I wish I could buy it for nostalgia sake but I can't justify the buy" I put it back on the rack. A few months later at the company Christmas party I was presented with this.........It's also 25" scale like a PRS too. Plays freakin awesome...can't have a PRS explorer so this will have to do...and it does! 1982 Ibanez Destroyer II.
