About this listing
A used 2014 "Private Stock #5199 Paulfs Guitar Dirty Blonde" has arrived! Private Stock "Private Stock" is PRSfs flagship line, created entirely through custom orders separate from the standard production line. Crafted by a select team of artisans with meticulous care using the rarest woods and luxurious inlays, the models in this series are the ultimate guitars, characterized by an artistic and beautiful appearance that could be called a work of art, as well as a thorough commitment to every detail, from sound to playability. This particular instrument is based on "Paul's Guitar," a model that embodies Paul's own aspirations as a guitarist. Body The body top?often referred to as the face of the guitar?features a lavish use of "European Curly Maple" with a striking, three-dimensional grain. The body back is crafted from "African Mahogany," which produces rich mid-low frequencies and a resilient sustain. This harmonizes beautifully with the brightness of the maple top, creating a well-balanced, deep sound character overall.The warm resonance of the mahogany naturally accentuates the playerfs subtle nuances. For the finish, wefve chosen gDirty Blondeh to maximize the beauty of the wood grain, carefully finished with a High Gloss Nitro (lacquer) finish. The thin lacquer coating ensures rich resonance and excellent response without compromising the woodfs natural tone. Neck The neck is crafted from "Peruvian Mahogany" in a "Pattern" shape. Peruvian Mahogany is a slightly harder wood than traditional mahogany and is characterized by its quick response. It is used exclusively in Ardimeola signature and limited edition models, making it an extremely rare wood. The fingerboard is crafted from Pernambuco, a wood renowned for its quality. Boasting extremely high density and strength, it is characterized by sharp attack and a clear sound image. While offering excellent attack, it produces a rich, lustrous tone with a solid core, faithfully reproducing everything from subtle nuances to powerful playing. Combined with the Peruvian mahogany neck, this creates a sound character with excellent overall responsiveness and sound separation. This combination fully demonstrates its capabilities not only in jazz fusion but also in fusion rock and contemporary playing styles. Pickups The "Narrow 408" pickups are used, offering a tone that combines overwhelming versatility with high musical clarity.Two mini-toggle switches are located between the volume and tone knobs. With this setup, you can set either one or both pickups to full single-coil mode, producing a crisp and unique vintage single-coil sound in both single-coil and humbucker positions. With varying choices of wood, parts, and specifications, each Private Stock model is one-of-a-kind, making every encounter a truly unique experience.
