Let me be the first to say that I don’t believe in the myth of the “pre-factory PRS”.
Until, that is, this morning, when I made a deal for one. Now I’m totally convinced that they rule.
This 1988 PRS Standard has been refinished in yellowed Pelham Blue with a racing stripe. For that reason, it’s worth less than a pristine original-finish one. That’s good for two reasons: prices on the early PRS guitars are starting to get stupid, and also because I like racing stripes. Check it out. Once it’s in my hands, I’ll plug it in and play it for ya’ll.
