The Making of a PRS Private Stock

Watch how the process of building a Private Stock guitar from PRS works. Baxter is here at the PRS Factory and is in the Vault picking out woods for a build and showing you the whole process and some peeks at guitars in the build process!

Stunning artistry! Looks like my wife's operation will have to wait a few years.

[@johnbuell8035]

Jeez, how would you ever make a decision with so many beautiful choices!

[@terrygreear8993]

These guys are the real deal . Beautiful diversity of quality built Guitars . Want one or two now !

[@dougcox3990]

These things are works of art. Stunning.

[@CasinoGuitars]

Thank you sir for watching! They are rather stunning and it is a treat to be there and see them come together!

[@TJ-Dives]

Somebody once said that when you buy a PRS Guitar you are not buying a musical instrument. You are opening up a subscription. I have to agree. After buying an S2 recently I was so amazed by the whole thing I then bought 3 others. Amazing stuff.

[@druwk]

PRS Guitars have always been serious works of art! Private Stock is ridiculous... These guitars sound and play amazing, but they freak me out! I have a hard time thinking of them as “tools /instruments”. Too precious.

[@martywilkinson6722]

Their guitars are just so beautiful! Its guitar art!

[@baldbearded9601]

13:56 That may be the nicest guitar I've ever seen... just wow!

[@niptodstan]

I have a Hamer Mirage in Koa that is as nice as that.

[@Snakebloke]

Looks like a bowling ball!!

[@fancykarlmarx]

Reminds me of a bathroom

[@kennytesta9312]

I agree it looks like marble

[@druwk]

That layout of woods in the beginning was GORGEOUS! Would love to have that guitar.

[@_RLP]

I'm not a prs guy, but I have tremendous respect for Paul and the gang. And the graveyard... God... It's one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen. That neck is glorious... Cheers

[@MrBrooxy]

That fire maple guitar was incredible

[@jasong546]

There’s nothing wrong with that! If you can do it, awesome. The nice thing to me is that the core, and even the other ranges are always so great looking and sounding, that it’s possible to have a stunner without spending private stock money. My DGT was a non 10 top, in the usual old vintage sunburst, and I don’t know how it was graded because it looked like the best flame maple top they could have used. Just save your pennies for awhile, and then check for your favorite model used, and you can get a good deal.

[@SkyscraperGuitars]

Its fun seeing all the guitars that are one-offs.

[@philbivins7133]

Drop dead gorgeous guitars....WOW!!

[@newportmike8519]

I am able and fortunate enough to have a perfect SUHR Buckeye burl modern with Limba back, roasted AAA Birdseye maple neck and Cocobolo board, a GIBSON Standard Historic 1959 Les Paul, a TAYLOR K24-CE Koa acoustic with a AAA top and a work horse WARMOUTH I made kind of like a 3-tone Stevie strat with custom Duncan (Texas flood style) pickups and all the good stuff but I do not feel like I have assembled my dream quiver yet until I have a PRS Private stock. It just may be the one I seek known as The Axecaliber. Forged from the good folks at Wonkaville/PRS here to bring peace and good will to all men.

[@doknox]

Some of these are just unreal! Prs has beautiful guitars! I gotta have one

[@BryanBowden]

Great video. Drooling over each one.

[@jasonstevens1728]

OMG!!! Camera dude!! get it together brother. Such great art and it was blur half the time!!

[@CasinoGuitars]

It was very run and gun in the factory, not a lot of time to setup shots and we didn't want to disrupt production! We will work on the shots a little better next time!

[@cuda426hemi]

Paul signed a big PRS poster for me in '90 when I was selling the crap out of his fairly unknown at the time guitars when $1400 bought a ten-top hand signed Custom 24. ($100 spiff to me for every sale) That's the closest I'd ever get to owning one. 🎸

[@DogDaze66]

I paid huge money for one sold it , just sounded great unplugged but in any amp it was not so good , even swapped pups still , just gorgeous to look at and play unplugged . It was a 2013 DGT Private Stock DGT totally exotic and Wild West guitars hand selected the woods .

[@fly3po1]

Thank you for this great video of great guitars!!!!

[@seanporter108]

I would love to see a private stock Mark Tremonti signature with a one piece quilted top and solid mahogany back, eastern rose wood neck, ebony fret board. Done with a custom aquamarine in the center fading to a charcoal burst around the edges.

[@ashleyjackson4481]

Stunning

[@Chrispy_tV]

Some of these guitars are jaw droppingly beautiful. The buckeye burl especially looks like it is carved from stone! Unreal! There are some very happy doctors and lawyers out there while us musicians rip it up on our GIBSONs. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@crevusllohcin]

Just wondering how does Private Stock work, is it the best wood that’s kept aside for made to order guitars or certain clients own pieces of wood for when they want a guitar Built..

[@CasinoGuitars]

Brett hello. The woods are all graded when they come in and the best of the best makes it into private stock. This is done through both sonic qualities and of course the visual splendor. We spent a while baking on neck blocks hearing the different tones they created, that was my favorite part:)

[@msspi764]

Honestly it is a bit frustrating to see that you had the immense chance to have a full visit of PRS factory but the video capture doesn’t do justice to the gorgeous guitars you tried to show us... the cam is always out of focus...

[@CasinoGuitars]

Yea I hear ya, we didn't want to disrupt production and had to shoot run and gun. Not a lot of time to setup to get really tight shots. Will work on that for the next run!

[@mikemarino4242]

Buy this guy a comb.

[@FilBack]

How long do they take to make the guitar after you’ve picked the woods. I ask this because I’d love to do a one week trip and get back with a guitar.

[@CasinoGuitars]

Unfortunately you will probably have to extend your trip by about 13 months...:( That is the typical lead time we need with any core pieces. Sometimes 8 months if you get lucky but otherwise, the long wait begins.

[@FilBack]

@@CasinoGuitars I see. Can't you just apply for a build slot? It doesn't really take a year to make any guitar. It could be like "ok, we're ready to build your guitar on week X. Come on monday morning to select the components and we'll have it done by friday."

[@FilBack]

Oh yeah, I've just remembered they need like 8 weeks to get the moisture out of the wood.

My dream PRS Privat stock Standard 24 Mahogany body but an maple neck and ebony board. Nothing speciel on the inlays, just moons Single vol, no tone, 3 way blade Intonatable bridge and EMG 81/85's And can this dream be anything els but black? xD

@Ryan Bugden 😂😂😂 i have a couple... But Yeah if that how i would want my PRS... A direkte clone of Jim Roots from when her played PRS

[@Martinroot]

@Ryan Bugden Im not gonna own a PRS... It's not perticulely my kind of guitar... I meen, they are pretty but again im more of a BC Rich, Jackson, Ibanez even Yamaha guy... I'v tryed a lot of prs's over the years... The necks are in general to small and narrow for my hands... I prefer large nut width and a slim still neck... Hope that makes sence... 🤘😉

Its the player what turns a piece of wood into a million dollar iconic guitar. ..Hendrix, Gilmour to name a few. These so called $10-20k guitars pop up in Reverb, Offer up, Ebay because these Dentists, Doctors etc cannot do anything else with it other than play here and there and not do anything in music History once they realize the guitar is not needed anymore. I have played many of these high end rarities and not they are not all that in terms of sound and playing.
