Completely not sure whether to go through with this, but I’m tentatively putting my PRS Modern Eagle 1 up for consideration.
The guitar is finished in matt Charcoal nitro with an amazing flamed top. The back is one piece mahogany with a lovely light figure and the neck – being the most remarkable thing about this instrument is solid Brazilian rosewood.
This is an ex PRS artist guitar – I bought it from Charlie Simpson (Busted and Fightstar) and it was used on their tours and albums; I have kept my correspondence with him which I’ll provide if anyone cares. I’m not familiar with his work but it makes for a nice history of the guitar.
As it is a gigged guitar, there are some dings on the back and edge of the body, the worst of which I have tried to show. There is nothing on the neck or fingerboard though, and it’s all just superficial; nothing structural or serious at all.
It comes with a case but not with tags, the reason being that it is an artist endorsee guitar it was not made for retail sale, rather passed directly from PRS Artist Relation to the user.
The hardware is the distinctive brushed nickel and gold and the RP1 pickups (splitable at the tone pot) sound amazing; like a hot PAF.
The reason I’m considering moving the guitar is that I’ve found something else I fancy trying. The price is £2000, which is considerably under what any other ME is advertised for. If what I want goes, then I’d like to keep this. In terms of trade, I would consider it but only if it left me with at least £1k for the other purchase. All I’d ask is that – as I think I’ve valued my guitar very competitively – you do the same with yours.
I’m based in Essex but am often in London, and if you have any questions or anything, give me a shout! Lastly, I do have one piece of good feedback on here, but that was in the old MR days. I do however have lots of good ebay feedback.

Wasn't laughing when I heard it though. Heavy and then some. Loved the Grand Unification album.
GLWTS.
You had a mint one of these for a keen price too I recall?
