Virginia Avenue Factory Era, 1995 PRS CUSTOM22 Figured Maple-Top, Color:PURPLE!

This is a Virginia Avenue Factory Era instrument. This is the period before the introduction of the ModCat system to manage the product specs, so the grade and other notations are handwritten on the bottom of each PU cavity. The pickups are PRS Dragon Pickups, which were the original specs of the Custom 22 at the time, and the control wiring is also in original condition with no evidence of solder tampering! Many of the parts seem to be in original condition. However, since it has been used for less than 30 years since its production period, there are some noticeable scratches, paint damage, and scuffs from playing factors, and you can feel the dignity from natural aging, but there are no noticeable buckle marks on the body back and no noticeable damage on the grip area, so the actual instrument may be in good condition! The actual instrument may give you a good impression! The finish color of the body top has a tendency to fade and become cloudy, but it has turned into a bright and creamy color, and you can feel its luster! You may feel that this is an austere piece that has been carefully played while undergoing maintenance! There are also some signs of age-related deterioration on the metal parts, light corrosion on the components of the wing locking type pegs (PRS Original Locking Tuners), and on the exterior and inner parts of the included OHC, but considering the age of the instrument, we think this is within the realm of acceptable behavior.
