What's new at work?

PRS is apparently what's new at work. We just got in our first of about a dozen new Paul Reed Smith Guitars that we had on order since the week before last. This one was listed to us as "Custom 22 - Special". Turns out it was a Custom 22 10-top with Starla pickups--that's right--and a matching flamed maple veneer headstock. Pretty rad!

Just check out that awesome bookmatched flame! The guitar is super light too. Almost as light as our Korina McCarty Soapbar. Here's the moneyshot on the headstock:



How about more of that top?



One of our customers was of the mind that "It doesn't sound like a Starla...but it doesn't sound like a Custom 22 either." (Speaking of Starla... there is supposedly, on its way, according to one of our guys, a Starla Stoptail to be showing up here soon...) Which is pretty neat. Why sound inside the box?
