Members GreatDane Posted February 16, 2013 Members Share Posted February 16, 2013 Technically yesterday, but I picked this one up as a little present to myself. it's a 2008 PRS Hollowbody II. The prior owner replaced the stock archtop pickups with 57/08s and added a coil-tap (hence the little mini-toggle near the selector switch). it's the perfect opposite to my other PRS hollowbody; no bling, no frills, no burst, no piezo. by the look of the wood "binding" and the shadow peeping through the thin top, i'll bet this has a killer maple top underneath. but i'll keep it black. the prior owner had this set up with .10s, but I'll put some .11s on it once these start going dull. it sounds great and plays great and I'm very happy. enough talk- here's some pics. hopefully you can dig it!

Members kit_strong Posted February 16, 2013 Members Share Posted February 16, 2013 Sweet guitar. Although I don't mind a bit of bling (or bird inlays) on a PRS myself. Although I'm not too crazy about 10 tops (either the looks or the price). Something tells me that's a real player. -Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend you try to hunt one down and try it. and don't let the new sticker or dealer prices scare you- "plain" ones like this don't go for very much money at all. i'm guessing you paid more on that Heritage than you would of on this guitar.
