Up for sale is an incredibly rare, historically significant piece of Paul Reed Smith history: a 100% original 1994 PRS CE 22, stamped "2 of 100" on the back of the headstock.When PRS debuted the 22-fret bolt-on configuration in late 1994, they produced a highly limited promotional run of just 100 guitars for top dealers and artists. This guitar is the second one ever made from that historic launch batch.Built in the legendary original Annapolis, Maryland factory, this guitar predates the 1995 move to Stevensville and features the highly desirable "pre-factory" production hallmarks.Key Features & Specs:

• Production Number: Number 2 of 100 (Hand-numbered at the factory)
• Serial Number: 4710201 (Built October 17, 1994)
• Body Wood: Solid, resonant old-growth Mahogany (CE models transitioned to Alder shortly after this run)
• Neck Wood: Bolt-on Maple with a dark, premium Rosewood fingerboard
• Finish: Opaque High-Gloss Black with rare factory "No Binding" wrap-around specification
• Pickups: Original factory Dragon I humbuckers (highly sought-after for their incredible clarity and hot vintage output)
• Hardware: Original PRS patented tremolo bridge and PRS low-mass locking tuners

Condition & Provenance:This guitar is in exceptional, collector-grade condition. The glossy black finish retains a mirror-like shine, and the neck is straight with virtually no fretwear.Crucially, this instrument comes as a complete time capsule. It includes:

• The original PRS black hardshell case
• The original factory warranty card and adjustment paperwork
• The original PRS "Play It. Wear It." promotional booklet
• The original tremolo arm and wrenches

The pickup cavities retain their original handwritten factory markers matching the serial number and verifying the "Black No Binding" build codes.Instruments from this numbered launch batch rarely hit the open market, let alone in this complete, unmolested condition. This is a blue-chip investment piece for any serious PRS enthusiast or guitar collector.
