Ok, smart-ass... now let's see you write your name in the snow.
 
You don't write them the same way do you? :o

It's like I always say... "I'm not that kind of doctor, Ma'am, but I'll be happy to take a look."
 
I like your first term "pre-factory". That is the most overused and abused sales-catch for a pre-`95 PRS guitar and frankly one I'm over. Of course the first 10 years of production were in a factory! What are people trying to say when they use the term pre-factory, that Paul made all of those guitars single-handedly with a hammer and chisel in his garage? That is a term that could easily be replaced with "pre-Stevensville".

Actually, the demarcation line should be 1996, not 1995. That's another bit of disinformation that appears to have originated with Ed Roman. I owned a 1995 Standard 24 that was built on Virginia Ave. PRS was still building guitars on Virginia Ave when I purchased that guitar in September of 1995. PRS did not move to Stevensville until the end of 1995. If I recall correctly, production at Stevensville did not start in earnest until early 1996.
 
Not keen on the RL abbreviation. In our circle the Rosewood Limited has always been affectionately referred to as the McGardenCentre :D
