The guitar has a brilliant JET WHITE finish.  I'm generally a fan of white guitars.  You can see every move a white guitar makes on stage from 200 yards away.  It's equipped with HFS and Vintage Bass pickups, which have been the standard issue in Custom 24’s since they were first developed for their late 1980’s guitars.  This guitar comes with the gold tremolo bar, hang tag, the original gold saddles, warrantee card large PRS sticker, stringing instructions and tri-fold swag brochure in the SBK case. 

 

I’m a working (weekend) musician who has bought, owned, gigged and sold over 300 different PRS guitars of all models since 2001.  It's time for someone else to own and enjoy this rock solid, uniquely modified, core guitar.

I recently heard someone a lot smarter than I am say: 

"Life is short..... Buy the guitar"

When I took this out of storage recently to list it, I brought it to rehearsal and wondered why I ever stopped playing this guitar in the first place.  Firey tone in all five positions of the rotary.  I had gigged it more than 100 times over a four-year run, years ago.  I had different pickups and electronics in it at the time, but I returned it to the original Navarro spec before it went into storage.  The only exceptions are the Graph-Tech saddles, the white knobs and the pole pieces on the HFS/VB pickups are not gold.  The original gold saddles are in the case. 

Not everyone likes a scalloped fretboard.  If you play them and you like them... you know.  If you play them and you like them, you also know that you've never seen a scalloped PRS and will likely never see one again.  Even the Private Stock team won't go there. 

The cosmetic condition of this guitar is very good.  I take good care of my players and I've always used static finish protectors on my PRS guitars, both in the picking area and across the entire back.  Pictures provided.  They are largely invisible on stage and protect those areas completely from aggressive picking, buttons, rivets and belts.  Over time, it has acquired some small nicks in other places from general playwear. Just one on the top, a couple on the edges and barely present on the long headstock tip, all of which have been photographed for your consideration.  At the edge of the fretboard where the high frets were scalloped, the poly coat has lifted in spots.  A couple of the bird wing tips were trimmed during the scalloping also.  This is a modified guitar by every definition.  It is to be loved for what it is and for what it is not.  Some would regard it as a toy.  Some as a unique PRS that no one else has, anywhere.  If a players interests converge on both PRS and Scalloped frets as they did for me... win/win.  Approaching vintage status at over 20 years old, this naturally aged tone machine was meant to be played and a fine, fine player it is. 

This guitar is special piece that is both played and playable.  I've got some mint museum pieces too.  If you're interested in something to be put in a glass case, you can check my other listings by clicking HERE.
