PRS STUDIO TEN TOP 2021 - BLACK GOLD BURST With Original PRS Hard shell Case.ONE OWNER CORE 2021 PRS STUDIO TEN TOP IN BLACK GOLD BURST WITH ORIGINAL PRS HARD SHELL CASE.CONTINENTAL US SHIPPING ONLYThis guitar was purchased new in July of 2021 as a collector guitar and rarely played. Always kept in a climate controlled room and inside the PRS hard shell case. Smoke free home. So its basically a new guitar in near mint condition. I say near mint because there are a few pick swirls visible on the top which any guitar has after playing . Stunning flame maple ten top. The pictures don't do it justice. Please pardon my photography skills. Some of the pictures show the lint dust from wiping off the guitar.The headstock is covered in rosewood and really sets off the guitar. Gold trim. The sounds available range from a Stratocaster to a Les Paul and everything in between. The narrowfield pickups in the neck and middle are simply amazing. Time for me to reduce the size of my collection and pass this beauty on to the next collector. These now sell new for over $5,400. Why pay new prices when you can save and have the same guitar?The PRS Studio takes the concept of the modern 3-pickup electric guitar to a new level of tonal mastery. Equipped with PRS’s proprietary Narrowfield pickups in the neck and middle positions and a 58/15 bridge pickup, the PRS Studio offers chimey single-coil sounds, vintage scooped tones, and the awesome power of a screaming bridge humbucker — all in one sleek solidbody guitar with a gorgeous figured maple 10-Top. A push-pull Tone control and a 5-way blade switch give you instant control over the the Studio’s formidable tone arsenal, delivering seven different combinations that will cover any genre, from classic rock to edgy fusion. And of course, being a PRS, playability is flawless. If you’re looking for one guitar that will do it all, Sweetwater recommends giving the PRS Studio a serious audition.The PRS Studio is all about tonal dexterity, thanks to its complement of proprietary PRS pickups and versatile switching scheme. PRS’s Narrowfield, deployed in the neck and middle positions of the Studio, is a remarkable pickup that delivers the best characteristics of a humbucker, a P-90, a traditional single-coil, and a mini humbucker. Technically, the Narrowfield’s dual coils classify it as a humbucking design, while its svelte form factor is reminiscent of a mini humbucker (with which, perhaps not surprisingly, it shares certain tonal characteristics). Mini humbuckers — especially in the neck position — have long been prized for their ability to maintain clarity in overdrive conditions while bucking the hum.Stationed at the bridge is a 58/15, which produces a rich, organic vintage tone — the warm and clear sonic elixir that propelled this pickup to the top of many guitarists’ favorite PAF-style humbucker lists. The 58/15 is incredibly versatile and cleans up nicely when you roll back your guitar’s volume control. Cranked through a good tube amp, the 58/15 can produce raging overdrive with fat, snarling tone that nevertheless maintains crystalline note separation within chords.The Studio is equipped with a push-pull Tone control that splits the pickup coils for sparkly single-coil tones, while a 5-way pickup selector switch serves up spanky reverse-polarity tones in positions 2 and 4. The immense flexibility of the Studio’s unique pickup and switching arrangement gives you an instrument that can serve up any electric guitar sound you could ever need for a live gig or studio session.Features:Mahogany body, carved figured maple 10-TopMahogany neck, Pattern profile22-fret rosewood fingerboard with iconic PRS Bird inlaysNeck pickup: PRS NarrowfieldMiddle pickup: PRS NarrowfieldBridge pickup: 58/155-way blade pickup selectorMaster Volume and push-pull Tone controlPRS Gen III Tremolo vibrato bridgeDesigned and crafted by PRS luthiers in Maryland, USAGENERALNumber of Strings6Right-handedRight-handedBODYBody TypeSolidbodyBody ShapeStudioBody MaterialMahoganyTop MaterialFigured Maple 10-topBody FinishGloss Nitrocellulose LacquerColorBlack Gold BurstNECKNeck MaterialMahoganyNeck ShapePatternNeck JointSet NeckRadius10"Fingerboard MaterialRosewoodFingerboard InlayPRS BirdsNumber of Frets22Scale Length25"Nut Width1.6875"Nut MaterialSynthetic/Bronze powder blendHARDWAREBridge/TailpiecePRS Gen III TremoloTunersPRS Phase III LockingELECTRONICSNeck PickupPRS Narrowfield HumbuckerMiddle PickupPRS Narrowfield HumbuckerBridge PickupPRS TCI-tuned 58/15 HumbuckerControls1 x master volume, 1 x master tone (push/pull coil-split)Switching5-way blade pickup switch
