PRS Paul Reed Smith Artist V 2011 Faded Purple Hazel

This guitar is in played condition  and for good reason its a player guitar! It is not in collectors condition ...  however its marks are also only player noticeable. The last 4 photos show the details of two dings the small neck chip and the lacquer separation on the underside of the upper fret register.  The guitar comes with the blue lined artist case, hang tag and nickel trem arm.  You won't be disappointed with this combination of woods and the Artist V pickups. They definitely have a piano clarity to them. The top is pretty unique (named purple hazel),  which is a gray, purple, black finish combination that is gorgeous and aggressive as well. You move it and new figuring pops out depending on the angle and it plays effortlessly. This guitar looks great plays great and is something your neighbor will not have, it is as unique as you are a player!
