Beautiful Private Stock Modern Eagle V in Faded Indigo. BIG Quilt maple top with a Swamp Ash back and Semi-Hollow construction really steps up the tonal range of this model. Lots to clarity and punch with added roundness and air. Coupled with direct mount pickups, this Modern Eagle has sustain for days! Satin nitro neck feels and plays better than it looks. Details are at its finest all the way down to the color matching Curly Maple tuning keys. Amazing!!  I am the original owner of this guitar. I purchased it in late 2023. It has never been gigged. It has been kept here in my smoke-free home. I have only played it a few minutes. The guitar is very light. And it plays so easy. The tone is excellent, and it has many different tonal options, as described below. The Private Stock Modern Eagle V is a sophisticated instrument not only in its craftsmanship but electronically and mechanically,” said Paul Reed Smith. “Modern Eagle models have always been designed to stand up to history while celebrating tonewoods and the discovery of new tones. These instruments are the embodiment of that tradition married with the bold innovation of Private Stock and a new pickup system.” The Private Stock Modern Eagle V utilizes a hum/single/hum (five-coil) pickup configuration and introduces a new and unique switching system that gives players a vast array of tones in one guitar. The 5-way blade switch selects the pickups just as the 509 does (treble, treble and middle, middle, middle and bass, bass). The two paired mini-toggles separate the slug-side coils, turning the humbuckers into true, “TCI-tuned” single coils. There is a single volume and a push/pull tone control that activates both humbuckers when engaged; this allows players to access three pickups simultaneously.  Bottom line, the Modern Eagle V Limited Edition is a special instrument, producing real, highly-musical tones for both recording and playing live. FedEx ground shipping (with full declared value) to the 48 contiguous states is $350 in addition to the price of the item. All sales are final. No returns. So ask a million questions before buying! I have many more photos that I can provide on request.
