Matt always says that when he went to guitar building school in the 80's EVERYONE wanted to be the next Paul Reed Smith. Back in those days PRS guitars were still pretty rare and sought after. Matt had to drive 8 hours to Dallas just to buy one.
Without a doubt some of the sexiest guitars to ever come out of the mid to late 80's were PRS guitars. It just makes sense to get everyone's lower body gyrating and offer a PRS Workshop. Since these guitars are known for crazy cool figured wood tops every one comes with 5A flame maple
We will be using the finest components money can buy (all parts included) and give you 5 days of comprehensive instruction on fret work, paint work, assembly, set-up plus a lot more. Choose between PRS Custom 24 or McCarty 22 style guitars.
Start With Excellence, we will be using Honduran mahogany bodies with Standard Maple tops (figured maple, $300 upcharge) and mahogany necks with rosewood fretboards from our friend Steve McElhenny at Maximum Guitar Works.
Steve offers OEM Factory Services to companies you have, no doubt, heard of, meaning that your guitar will be exactly like some of the guitars built by the big-name boutique builders.
We provide all the components to build this guitar (minus pickups... we have no idea what y'all want). Choose a Hipshot trem, or Tone Pros wrap-around bridge. Hipshot standard or locking tuners as well as a bunch of other premium parts to complete your guitar.
Dylan McKerchie from Dylan Talks Tone has generously offered to make everyone who registers great deals on custom wound pickups, your guitar.
