2001 Paul Reed Smith Brazilian PRS Singlecut - 1 of 250! All Braz Neck!

Hello all,

Here is an INCREDIBLE 2001 PRS Brazilian Singlecut.  This is one of a very limited edition by PRS of 250 guitars.  Unlike the $10,000 Gibson R9s with only a Brazilian rosewood fretboard, the entire neck of this guitar is made of the highly-desirable and rare tonewood.  The Brazilian rosewood neck must be felt to be believed. 

The story goes that Paul Smith was getting a tour of the Martin Guitar Factory, and saw a bunch of BRW lying around.  It was too small for bodies, but Paul knew the lumber was the perfect size for necks.  The blanks were 30-50 years old when Paul bought them. Now 15 years after the guitars were built these necks are 45 to 65 years old. This kind of wood is simply unobtainable today due to the CITES restrictions. 

This gorgeous guitar has a 10 Top and is finished in a lovely Dark Cherry Sunburst.  The neck is the very comfortable "Wide-Fat" carve, which is PRS' closest carve to the 59 Les Paul contour.  The guitar is all-stock, with vintage-style tuners and their awesome PRS #7 pickups.  The BRW neck almost has a piano-like tone, and the guitar sounds great...a nice warm, vintage tone. 

The guitar is 100% original, and includes the hardshell case and paperwork.  If you're looking for a highly collectible PRS in fantastic condition, look no further.  I'm asking $4500 for this iconic PRS.  I'm interested in a straight sale, but there are a VERY FEW partial trades I will consider, such as a vintage singlecut Les Paul Junior, a PRS Santana, PRS 1980 West Street Limited with Brazilian board, a 1968 Telecaster, or 1960s Strat.

If you have any questions, or would like to make an offer, please let me know.

Thanks for looking.
