2014 Paul Reed Smith Private Stock #5201 Custom 24 Retro Model Faded Aquamarine w/ Case, Hangtags
This particular Private Stock offering is jaw-dropping in its features and presentation, with a satin-finished solid Brazilian rosewood neck, Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with flame maple binding and a gorgeous flitchmatched flame maple top highlighted by a Faded Aquamarine finish. The pair of 53/10 humbuckers are articulate and sweet with rich harmonic overtones, delivering plenty of power at the bridge and a touch of brightness at the neck, and the push/pull “Sweet Switch” at the Tone knob adds an ideal kick of warmth, simulating the subtle low-pass filter effect of a long cable. This Private Stock #5201 Custom 24 “Retro” Model weighs 7lbs 14oz, benefitting from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Brazilian rosewood
-Shape: “Pre-factory” Pattern Regular, measuring .840” 1st fret, .930” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Brazilian rosewood, flame maple binding, “Pre-factory”-style “Birds in Flight” inlays
-Frets: Medium jumbo, pristine
-Scale Length: 25”
-Nut: 1 11/16”

-Pickups: 53/10 Bass/Treble humbuckers
-Controls: Volume, Tone (push/pull “Sweet Switch”), Three-way pickup selector

The gloss Faded Aquamarine finish highlights the broad, dimensional figuring in the flitchmatched flame maple top. Exceptionally well-kept since new, there’s barely a mark on the gloss body beyond a couple tiny finish scratches in the clear coat on top. The satin neck profile is flawless.
The original Private Stock paisley hardshell case is included, along with the hangtags.
