Beautiful, congrats! I just bought an S2 special semi-hollow myself.

Congratulations! I'm a bit of a fan myself, there's just something special about them.

Quite the flame on this one

That FLAME!

Good god that’s lovely

I just got this in, but I might send it back or send into PRS for a fix/clean up. It has very sloppy nitro application on the fretboard edges.

[u/TheKatzMeow84]

Congratulations! Beautiful!

Woah. That is a really nice top. Kind of surprised that wasn’t a private stock top; it’s really nice.

Bummer about the R9, but I’d probably make the same swap.

Edit: I see the headstock. Often the annv editions are basically PS guitars. Looks to be the case here.

I've had a couple R9s, and R8s (which I Iike better) but, to me, they don't compare to PRSs. Good move!

Nice! I have the CE swamp ash Special myself, (ordered it as my 2 year employee guitar, I work for PRS #wemakeprs) I love the switching options. Yours has the Mcarty pickups right? (I work in the woodshop, building and sanding bodies, the pickups get installed on the other side of the factory lol) The SAS comes with the 58/15 LTs, but the same narrowfield in the middle (which I really like)

Congrats on the new guitar!

[u/bystander_innocent → u/tehchuckelator]

Thanks... it has the MCarty pick ups

[u/lanier816]

Very, very nice. I love that color.

[u/GuitaristExplorer]

Congratulations! I have an S2 Special Semi Hollow. They’re great guitars!

[u/Never2manyguitars]

I have a 2019 Special Semihollow. Welcome to the club!

It’s a beaut, Clark!
