[@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!

[@jasonstevens1728]

[@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:)

[@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.

Come on keep your camera in focus. You are in PRS Private Stock dpt.

[@rockers2rockers616]

People are paying for flaws in the timber or wood caused by resins, knots or shakes etc, like the white 'stripe' in the fingerboard that was shown. They can weaken the timber and you have no way of knowing how these timber's will age and perform over the life of the guitar.

[@rodneyritchie8846]

Rockers2Rockers im guessing these exotic guitars will be owned by doctors and investors and the like they will be hung on the wall n never played my teacher Joel Hokstras pet peeve was his rich students had better instruments than him and could barely play a bar chord

Gibson makes a much better guitars, electric and acoustic.

[@CasinoGuitars]

Thanks for the comment Kyrie and I agree with you on the acoustics, hands down! Electric is a bit more up for grabs and I would say to the hands of the beholder. I own way too many Gibsons and love them all but I have to admit the PRS does something different and plays a hell of a lot easier. But I still play my old 355 more, its just too cool not to:) Sincere thanks for watching and best to you!

[@er1cmaurer]

Some of those guitars are just gaudy and ugly IMO. “Too much” kills the vibe.

[@stefanagha3248]

I dunno man, Fender out here charging similar prices for strats and teles that look like very similar to much cheaper versions of said guitars. PRS making guitars that look like they should call at a fortune at least.

[@iaincobain3594]

Could you imagine someone buying one of these absolutely stunning guitars and then asking for it to be reliced. Those artisans would take him out back and relic his face.

[@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.

[@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.

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!

[@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.

[@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. 🎸

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.

@@EM-km8em ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY .. don't disagree one bit... 95% player, 4% guitar setup, 1% guitar woods/workmanship... but that does not mean I don't desire and covet playing one of those fine guitars... to help me get that extra 1%.. And they're fucking nice to touch and look at too, as a bonus.
