2003 PRS Hollowbody I McCarty Tobacco Burst PIEZO

2003 PRS Hollowbody I McCarty Tobacco Burst PIEZO My personal guitar, I have put it up for sale unhurriedly, but I might change my mind. I put it up for sale because I am not recording music currently, I play live more, I have other guitars for recording, and this one has just been lying idle for over a year. This guitar has been my personal one for over 3 years, I played more than one concert on it and recorded several studio songs, including one ballad from the Pulse Of Scream album - Thy Light - it is on the web, you can evaluate the sound. I took care of the guitar at home, wiped it with polish and looked after the neck - I lubricated the fretboard with lemon oil; for a long time it was my only and favorite one, but it is time for it to find a new home, where it will be used for its intended purpose more often than just standing idle in a closet at home. So I will give it away only into good hands! And another thing - when I was choosing the guitar I wanted specifically in the color of a violin, viola, in general, a vintage style with cutaways and necessarily with a piezo and one maple top - I found this, currently such guitars are a great rarity, as before, price tags even on eBay go up to 5000 dollars in the USA without shipping! The guitar is in ideal condition - it has no chips, I bought it quite expensively at the time in the USA, here in Ukraine such a guitar in a shop cost a fortune - about 6000$ and not for the first Hollowbody, but for the second, which are cheaper in principle (they have two maple tops). My choice fell precisely on the first Hollowbody due to the fact that the body had one maple top and a tasty low end was obtained, Hollowbody II are brighter in sound and have more treble. Naturally, I wanted a piezo with two outputs, but there was no PRS P22 yet, and I needed a guitar for light music, although when it arrived - I plugged it in and realized that it sounds very decent even when playing heavy music - despite the empty body - it does not feed back. I did not recall the PRS P22 by accident, as the PRS Hollowbody has the same electronics scheme, which makes the guitar mega-versatile!!! It has two outputs - mix and piezo, which can work simultaneously both during recording and during live playing at a rehearsal or at home. Thus, one can plug one cable into the piezo output and into the sound card directly, and the second cable into the mix input and into a head or combo, which will be miked, set this to clean - in this way two channels of clean sound will be recorded at once - piezo and magnetic pickup - it will be mega-fat! Let me remind you that the iron switch will toggle the positions piezo-piezo+pickups-pickups, the 3-way switch is standard neck-two pickups-bridge, also a tone and volume knob, and the upper knob which can be used to blend the piezo mix to the pickups! You can dial in absolutely any sound on this guitar. As for me - this is the best hollowbody guitar in the world today! No Gibson ES-335, ES-339... compare to it. IMHO! And it also has a piezo! Guitar specs: Mahogany body and sides Maple top Mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard 22 frets, fixed ADJUSTABLE BRIDGE - a very important thing!!! Pay attention - it is extremely rare for PRS Locking tuners, the knobs of which are made of rosewood (!!!) of the second generation with bolt-clamps at the top Hardware mix - nickel + gold plating. This is something similar to the Artist Package, the guitar case by its shape and as in Artist editions is leather with the corresponding upholstery inside! The guitar sounds masterful! Watch reviews on the internet, for example this one This is the singlecut shape and it is slightly different in appearance, but the sound is similar, and most importantly here it is shown how easily everything immediately transitions from overdrive to acoustic sound!!! In general, browse YouTube, there are really many videos, I will knock together my own review later! In general, the guitar is currently for sale, but temporarily! Whoever is interested - write, call. This is one of the best guitars in everything - in beauty and in sound, that I have ever had!!! The guitar is located in Dnipropetrovsk! It can be listened to on good tube equipment of your choice — Mesa Boogie, Marshall, Engl.... I will deliver to any point in the world
