2011 PRS SC58 – Pre-Production / Artist-Owned / M.I.P.A. Award Era
Offered for sale is a rare and early 2011 PRS SC58, an exceptional pre-production, artist-owned instrument acquired directly from a PRS endorser prior to the model’s official release and trade show debut.
The SC58 is widely regarded as one of PRS’s finest modern single-cut designs — a refined tribute to late-’50s carved-top guitars, built with PRS precision, exceptional wood selection, and outstanding tonal balance.
This example comes from the launch-era production period and represents an especially desirable early instrument from the original SC58 run.
