The goal of Private Stock is not only to create the most visually stunning and best-playing guitar money can buy, but also the best sounding. Should you opt for a Private Stock guitar, PRS pledges to invest everything to ensure it becomes the finest instrument you've ever experienced."The guitar features a Curly Maple neck, Curly Maple top, and semi-hollow Black Limba back.
