Intro
This gorgeous fire red burst PRS belongs to bro Shafie of Kuantan's River Blues Band. He sent it to me for a string change, setup, de-gunking and polishing. Seems that nickel plating does not hold up against the salty sea air as well as chrome. In any case, since it was already in my hands, I decided to open her up and take some pics. But first, a few specs for your perusal.
