Paul Reed Smith Guitars

You are looking at one of the cooler guitars in my collection.  2005 Paul Reed Smith 513 Rosewood with a Solid Brazilian Neck in nice condition.  We'll rate it 9.3+  out of 10.  Has small scratches on back near the electronics plate as seen in picture and 2 small micro dings that i can't seem to capture with my camera. One is between the lower strap button and input jack.  The other is about 5" above the bottom strap button, near where you would rest your arm while playing.  Aside from that close to near mint.  We zoomed in to give you a better view in one of the pics to see the rear scratches.  Not sure if they would buff out. Features:  Solid Brazilian Rosewood Neck - Gold Hardware - 10 top (all Brazilian 513's share this designation -headstock has the gold mother of pearl  Paul Reed Smith) - Brazilian Fretboard - Trem - 513 Locking Tuners - 513 Neck (similar to Wide fat Neck) - 513 Electronics (5 pickups 13 sounds) - PRS 513 Case - Very Deserving 10 top -one with a inferior top just sold for $3999 - Guitar weighs 9 lbs 5 oz (normal weight for this model with Brazzy Neck) This is an extraordinary playing and sounding guitar and features my favorite neck from PRS.  The Brazilian Neck is comfortable and smooth (and smells awesome too - if your into that (i am) .....This guitar has no case candy aside from case keys and trem bar....USA lower 48 FedEx  Shipping is $75 ........ we also can ship overnight thru the Post Office if you like but will cost extra ..... International buyers message me for quote on shipping......This is a awesome guitar that plays effortlessly and sounds amazing. 2nd to last pic has a small white dot.  That is the  micro ding earlier mentioned.  Though from the naked eye doesn't appear white. Anyway, identical sized ding where your arm rest.  These are really tiny dings (my wife was laughing about how small helping me take the pics.)

Here's an interesting fact that i just found out.....
Paul Reed Smith Guitars is again the recipient of a Musikmesse International Press Award (mipa). The PRS 513 model was the winner of the "Best Electric Guitar of the Year" for the second consecutive year. "No other guitar manufacturer has ever won the award twice for the same instrument in mipa's history," says Gitarre & Bass magazine EditorDieter Roesberg. Comprised of a voting panel of editors and journalists from 58 publications worldwide, mipa presents manufacturers with awards considered by many in the industry to be the "Grammy" of the musical instrument/pro audio industry.
The awards were presented to the winners at the special mipa-Party/Awards-Ceremony held during Musikmesse/ProLight & Sound on March 30, 2006 in Frankfurt, Germany.Mipa has honored esteemed musical instrument and equipment manufacturers for seven years and included more than forty different categories in 2006. PRS has been nominated as one of three contenders in the electric guitar category every year since the mipa award was created in 2000 and has received the "Best Electric Guitar of the Year" accolade five times, another feat that has never been accomplished by any other guitar manufacturer. Past PRS model winners include the PRS Singlecut in 2000, the Santana SE in 2002, the Santana II in 2003 and the 513 in 2005.  ****
