2017 PRS Private Stock John Mayer Super Eagle II in Hemp Green

Description: This Used 2017 PRS Private Stock John Mayer Super Eagle II in Hemp Green is here on consignment. It was purchased new through us in 2017 and it has not been played much if at all. The guitar remains in fantastic shape with nothing negative to mention. With little to no play time accumulated on this guitar, we don't like to use the term Mint but this guitar sure looks as fresh as the day it arrived here from the factory! The neck is straight, the frets are still crowned, and the truss rod functions properly. Included with the guitar are the original hardshell case and Private Stock sheet. It's no secret that John Mayer's main guitar on tour with Dead & Company has been the PRS Super Eagle, launched last spring. During the 2016 tour, PRS made Mayer a second version of that instrument with some updated woods and aesthetic appointments. Mayer played the Super Eagle II on the very last show of the 2016 tour and is continuing to play it for Dead & Company's 2017 summer tour. PRS and Mayer are excited to offer this new version, the Super Eagle II, to fans and collectors. "Just like with the first edition Super Eagle, you're getting the same guitar that is in John's rig. It's been an honor to help create a tool that John can use to work with Dead & Company and beyond," said Paul Reed Smith. Some of the specifications Mayer and Smith collaborated on for this special run of instruments include a longer (for PRS) scale length of 25.375", specially-wound 58/15 JM treble, and bass pickups with a specially-wound Narrowfield JM pickup in the middle position (with three individual coil-tap mini-switches), a JCF Audio preamp with treble boost, as well as a hand-signed sticker in the f-hole of the guitar that was designed by Mayer's friend David Smith (who also designed the cover art for Mayer's 2012 "Born and Raised" album). The pickups deliver a bright, clear tone that has been heard in venues across the USA in Mayer's recent performances with Dead & Company. Some new woods and aesthetic choices were also selected for the Super Eagle II, including a one-piece Private Stock curly maple back, African blackwood fingerboard and headstock veneer, paua birds, and a green ripple abalone 12th fret violin bird and Private Stock eagle, as well as a new color: Hemp Green. The Private Stock Super Eagle II is a highly sophisticated instrument that at once reveres the history of guitar-making and guitar tone but pushes the boundaries of materials, design, and craftsmanship. The resulting instrument embodies the PRS Private Stock culture of meticulous workmanship as well as Mayer's keen eye for playability, tone, and detail. The Private Stock Super Eagle II was limited to 120 instruments. Full specifications are below. Nobody treats used guitars as we do at The Music Gallery! Every trade-in goes through an inspection, gets cleaned, then some fresh strings, and a full set-up before being put up for sale. We often even put guitars with worn frets through our Plek machine if need be! Rest assured, any Used Guitar from The Music Gallery has certainly passed its physical!
