Re: NGD! 2015 PRS in the house!

Picked up a brand spankin' new 2015 SC245, 58/15 pickups, 2 piece bridge Pattern neck, Rosewood headstock veneer, really nice piece of rosewood for the fretboard. Not sure the color, but its a kind of faded blue - grey color.
I went in with the intention of walking out with a 30th anniversary custom 24, but ended up with this instead.

Its a totally different beast than the Wolfgang, so its going to take some getting used to.

I just got a NGD chubby..
That PRS is beautiful!
Congratulations!

They are indian.

Do they only use Brazilian for private stock?

Nowadays, I believe so.

It looks like the current modcat decoder is not up to the 2015 specs..might be the reason some things seem goofy on what you posted..board, pickups, etc.

I think the color is called "grey black" ....Im not super cray about it, but Its definitely not a deal breaker for me by any means

Looks like Faded Whale Blue.

That's looks awesome Chris. I'm sure I've seen the boys in Alter bridge using similar spec' and looking guitars.

Is there anyway to tell what type of rosewood a board is just by looking?

Re: NGD! 2015 PRS in the house!

no, not by looking but you can deduce it.

If you paid over 6000 bucks for a PRS, it's most likely brazilian.

If you paid less than 4000 bucks for a PRS, it's most likely indian.

Ya it was $3200. I have no doubt its Indian, I was just curious if you could tell by looking

ah well, no. not really. You can smell the differences, though, when you're sanding/shaving it. brazilian is a bit spicier if you will than indian. but don't start sniffing your fretboards,guys, it's really the dust when working with it.

To me, great quality rosewood smells awesome. like roses. Wenge smells like chocolate to me.
