Paul Reed Smith 408

 Stunning Emerald Green Flame PRS 408 For Sale,  I priced this guitar to move fast,  I need cash for a trip. She comes with the case candy and the original case that is in like new condition. The guitar itself in my opinion is in great condition.  When you look really close she has a few tiny spots that I photographed.  IF your not 100% satisfied when you get this guitar with in 7 days, your more then welcome to send her back for a refund  minus all shipping cost. I am charging a flat rate of 65.00 for shipping so I am already splitting some of that cost with you.  The specs are as follows:

• Carved Figured Maple Top
• Emerald Green Finish
• Mahogany Body & Neck
• Rosewood Fret board w/ PRS Bird Inlays
• Pattern Thin Neck Profile
• PRS Tremolo & Phase III Locking Tuners
• 25” Scale Length w/ 22 Frets.
• 408 Treble & Bass Pickups
• 1 Volume, 1 Tone, 3-Way Blade, & 2 Coil Split Mini Toggles

The Pattern Thin neck profile is definitely a shredder’s neck, without being too skewed in the Ibanez direction to turn off more traditional players.

As always, the PRS hardware is well-made, and the carved top is exceptionally comfortable. She is a great guitar to play!

The PRS 408 retains the traditional 25” scale length, which I very much enjoy, especially for down-tuning. This guitar has been in my closet for the last year and needs a good home.

The placement of the electronics is very comfortable as well, which is obviously important when you’re dealing with 5 controls.

Tone:

The tone of this guitar will be enjoyable to any player. It’s extremely versatile and suitable to many genres in all positions, and this is for a few reasons.

408 stands for 4 pickups, 8 sounds, and this is accomplished through some unique pickup design and wiring schematics. The bridge pickup is slightly wider than a normal humbucker, the neck pickup is slightly narrower, and the tone overall is between a covered and uncovered pickup. This lends some extra chime to the next, and fatness to the bridge.

Additionally, the split positions are designed to be as authentic to single coil tone as possible, and also not have any volume drop when switching from the humbuckers. This leaves the split sounds extremely muscular, and are much more in a P90 direction that a strat pickup, which is a welcome change of pace

I really found myself enjoying playing any genre on this guitar.   I just need money to pay for a trip so I am going to sell her at a  Black Friday price!,  lower then I paid!!  I love this guitar!  THIS IS A KILLER DEAL FOR THIS GUITAR
