EdMardell,
I have one also.
I have a couple of questions.
How do you know what # of the 100 it is?

What case and strap did yours come with.
Mine came with the G&G Tweed with Orange interior. Not the black case listed on the website.

Thank you,
Rick

Well now you're into one of my prime issues and I have held forth on this elsewhere. That case is pretty much what the Custom Shop 'wrapped' my $3K team built guitar in. I have owned two PRS's both of which came in cases (likely built by G&G as well) which put the aforementioned to shame.

That case we are looking at here is a 50 year-old design which was supplied with my '58 Stratocaster when new.

"Vintage vibe' aside, It seems to me that, for the kind of bucks we shell out for product we are entitled to the same level of quality that Paul Reed Smith sees fit to provide his customers. That would be a strong, plush-lined form fit case for a guitar befitting that treatment.

I say it again, for the umpteenth time. It is insulting, and the Custom Shop should get with the program.

Doc :evil:
