2015 Paul Reed Smith Private Stock 20th Anniversary Limited

There's no question Paul Reed Smith is one of the great innovators of the electric guitar. Since 1985, the Paul's company has represented the cutting edge of the industry. In 1996, PRS introduced the "Private Stock" line as a way to bring instruments that Paul envisioned to light outside the constraints of the normal manufacturing process. According to PRS, the program "represents the highest quality of materials, the most personally crafted instruments, and the greatest level of customization at PRS." Their goal with Private Stock guitars is to build "an instrument that is equally as good as an heirloom to be treasured and a tool to make music." That's a tall order, but many would argue they achieve that and yet so much more.  So how do you commemorate the 20th Anniversary of such a lofty aim? By building a guitar that is completely over the top, of course! Limited to 40 total instruments, the Private Stock 20th Anniversary LTD models were built with Eastern Flamed Maple tops hand-sel
