PRS MAPLE TOP CLASSIC
WITH GIBSON GIG BAG
MADE IN THE USA
7th SEPTEMBER 1989
ACCORDING TO PRS THEY NEVER MADE THIS SPEC GUITAR
IT WAS AN EMPLOYERS GUITAR MADE FOR EITHER ERIC PRITCHARD OR ERIC BUTLER, IT WAS STAINED BY KEVIN MURPHY AND THE NECK WAS MADE BY DAVE HAZEL WHO NOW WORKS FOR KNAGGS GUITARS
ITS A BEAUTIFUL GUITAR, THE COLOUR IS STILL VIBRANT EVEN AFTER 36 YEARS
I BOUGHT THIS GUITAR IN 1991 AND PLAYED IT AS MY MAIN INSTRUMENT ON 2000 PLUS GIGS BACK IN MY PRO DAYS
IN ‘94 I HAD CHANDLER GUITARS FIT A SET OF MIKE CHRISTIAN PIEZO BRIDGE SADDLES (THE ORIGINAL SADDLES ARE INCLUDED) FOR PLUGGED IN ACOUSTIC TONE WITH A FISHMAN POWERCHIP PREAMP INSTALLED IN PLACE OF THE TONE CONTROL
IT HAS VINTAGE BASS AND HFS TREBLE HUMBUCKERS WIRED TO THE ORIGINAL 5 WAY ROTARY CONTROL
ITS NO CASE QUEEN, IT HAS MANY DINGS AND NICKS, WEAR ON THE NECK AND FINGERBOARD, IT HAS FRET WEAR BUT STILLS PLAYS BRILLIANTLY SO NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
THIS IS A FANTASTIC GUITAR, IT PLAYS BRILLIANTLY, SOUNDS SUPERB AND KILLER LOOKS, PRS GUITARS WERE WONDERFUL BACK IN THE 80’s/90’s AND THIS IS NO EXCEPTION
