What's the oldest model year guitar you currently own? Oldest PRS?

My oldest is a 1980 Greco SA-1200 (1959 335 copy), then a Burny Les Paul copy from around 1987. My 'modern' guitars are a 2005 EJ Strat, 2007 fall ltd 814 Taylor and a 2010 PRS 53/10 limited.
 
Oldest is a Gibson Les Paul Deluxe from 1979. Center top row in this photo:

Oldest PRS is my newly-acquired 1990 CE, alder body maple fretboard.

I bought the Artist new in High School before buying a car! Then quickly bought a Firebird ha gotta love it.
my long lost brother! My dad gave me a choice of a new Sunbird or a guitar as my graduation present. I chose the guitar over a new car! But that was ok since I already had...
a Firebird convertible. :)

Still have the Artist (it will never go) even back then I knew Ibanez made a better guitar then Gibson! Today it's mostly PRS and a sweet 74 Formula 400 Firebird for fun.

Yes, mine being my graduation present, and a great guitar, it will never go. I went the other way with the car though. I was always a Pontiac guy (I grew up in the car business with dad being GM of a Pontiac dealer). But with Pontiac gone, I had to go chevy when I got my new car a few months ago.

Ha! Well, I say more like "no more being forced to drive a "dad car" now I can drive what I want! These are the kind of cars I always drove... til I got married. LOL

Nice ride, for sure!!!! Personally, I am more about the "Grandpa Car", lol.....



As far as guitars.....

My oldest guitar is this 1987 Ibanez 540S. I got it new, and still have it as a case queen!!





My oldest PRS is my red Custom 22. It's cased right now, but I am pretty sure it's a 1998 (or maybe a 2008).....

My neighbor is a sales guy at CarMax and both his kids are college age. He won some kind of award that lets him drive a car off the lot for a year. He can drive one for up to a month before he has to change it. Mostly, he's been driving luxury type cars and SUVs. Last week he came home with one of these....
