Guitar
This is a "pre-factory" (or Annapolis factory) Paul Reed Smith guitar from the first year the CE-24 was manufactured. This one will have an Alder body versus the Mahogany bodies used in 1994 and later. Note that it has the 3-way switch instead of the later rotary selector knob. This could possibly have one of the rare "Chainsaw" treble pickups - depending on how early in the production this one falls.
There is a lot of talk about the Brazilian Rosewood on the earlier PRS guitars but that would be hard to know for sure.
Overall there are many collectible and desireable qualities to this CE-24, and if you don't mind a bolt on 24 fret PRS (Alex Lifeson doesn't mind) then this should be one heck of a guitar.
