We all know how it works... "favorite" guitars can change with the weather.
What is your favorite PRS today! Remember, at midnight, you get to start all over again! :rockin
Here's my favorite PRS today.

This is great!
Now question, does it have to be of PRSi currently owned, or can it be one we're GAS'ing for?
Because we all have the days of GAS, when our 'favorite' seems to be the one just out of reach ;)
So I'll assume the latter for the moment, and post this one, because this one is just stalking me in my mind day and night:

That is sweet!! At first I thought it was cool yes at first glance, but then my eyes focused in on that middle pickup hidden away in there, like a tiger in the tall grass!
I'm usually not a fan of PRSi with a middle pickup in an HSH config, but on that color scheme, it's a whole other story.
Hmmm...maybe in configuring my next PRS... :idea

My favorite today, until my CU22 comes home from the PTC, is my '11 DGT. Simply a killer guitar, hard to believe there are 11's on there and it plays so easily.

Without question, my very unique and special CU24AP. Santana Yellow, black ebony board, very large "Standard" neck. The playabilty is off the charts, it resonates so much the trem springs do the reverb effect constantly. It is the ONLY stock PRS I have or have ever had.
The original pickups are perfect for this guitar. It has dynamics and clarity not associated with CU24's. Much more than a rock machine, but it does that very well. It has bested every custom I have compared it to (for what I want), including some of the earliest from the 80's. Just a freak of an instrument and a perfect guitar.

It's my plainest (maybe what I like best about it in some ways), but it's comfy, trustworthy, best form of transportation I have in a PRS...basically like a damn good horse. Korina McCarty with 5708s, 7 pounds of ease and breeze.

I have to say +1 to Shellby's post.
I feel the exact same way about my 2001 PRS CU24 its just incredible.
My LP and strats just feel like one trick ponies in comparison.
I even get an acoustic vibe when using the split coils out of phase poistion '2' that gets me beating down on the strings like I do with my acoustic. The pups are so versatile. I could go on an on why its my dream guitar but I wont.
All I will say is that its my go to guitar for heavy rock (classic and modern) blues (bleed cap is great) cleans and acoustic/rythm.
A shape shifter for sure.
Here she is;

Don't be a hater, as I have owned a few and played many PRS's. My Fav for past few months is a stock Korina SE ONE, she's a p-90 screamer that is almost weightless, plays effortlessly, and is a blonde. I must confess, I do miss a tone knob though.

Nice! I had a McCarty Standard that was all hog and I eventually sold it because it was just too dark. Bet that Korina makes a world of difference.

I prefer the bolt on 24 fret guitars made before 95. I have a cherry burst 93 and this 91: brazilian rosewood fretboard, one piece mil-com tremolo, abalone inlays, and the small neck heel, wide thin neck carve. These sound better than my two Les Pauls and at 8 pounds each, my shoulder loves them.

Mine used to have a black back and neck, but years of gigging it have changed that. :) I love the MilCom trem, it's the most stable non-locking trem I've ever had the pleasure to abuse. I can divebomb until the strings are slack and sticking to the pickup magnets, and it comes back up in tune.

This McSoapwood Standard was a "rescue" and one of the very best guitars I have ever played. The frets were shot, and the original turquoise finish has ugly blemishes beneath the lacquer. I got it for a song, and decided to really make it mine.
I had it re-fretted and pleked by Larry Fitzgerald who also installed a new delrin nut. For the pickups, he installed a set of Lindy Fralin P90's (vintage underwound) and an RS vintage electronics kit to round it off. The bridge is original and it came with Tone Pro's locking studs already installed. The tuners are locking gotoh's.
The guitar was refinished in Fender Lake Placid Blue by Marty Bell out in SoCal, and I mated the blue finish with some cream appointments.
Totally killer, and one that I will never willingly sell!

Apparently there aren't that many floating around. After last nite's practice, my goldtop CE22 regains it's #1 status for me. For a while, the McSoap Trem took over, but the CE just did it all for last nite's blues thing. It was my first PRS which I got in the late 90's and remains a keeper for me. Played it dead-stock for a many years. I did end up putting some PAF style pickups in it and the guitar still maintains it's unique voice. Unfortunately, I'm plagued with CTS (carpal tunnel) and this guitar just feels right and I get no cramping/pain/ill effects. sorry, I realize I posted this one before.

The bridge is original and it came with Tone Pro's locking studs already installed. The tuners are locking gotoh's.
The guitar was refinished in Fender Lake Placid Blue by Marty Bell out in SoCal, and I mated the blue finish with some cream appointments.
Totally killer, and one that I will never willingly sell!

Well seeing as how it is my only PRS (and I love it), I would have to say my Tremonti. I got it around when I turned 15 I think, had it a long time! It is my main gigging guitar. I have toyed with selling it in the past (as I was quite the Strat player in my late teens and 20s), but I am using the Tremonti as one of my main gigging guitars now and I love it.

Being an "old school" kind of guy, I usually tend to prefer Gibsons, Fenders and Gretsches to PRS (even though I've owned a bunch of PRS). The one PRS I've hung on to (and the only PRS I currently own) is an amazing 2009 Ted McCarty Soapbar.
My Ted is 6.75 lb of tone, and its the best P90 guitar I've ever owned, which is saying a lot since I've had my share of nice Juniors and Specials.
I DID have to send it back to PRS and have the frets dressed down, as the huge DGT frets it came with felt odd to me. Now the frets feel like vintage medium jumbos (PTC did a great job on the work, BTW).
I also changed the stock Duncan P90s out for a set of Fralins, 10% over bridge and 5% under neck. The Fralins and a old Astron .022 tone cap pulled from a vintage 50's amp brought out the best from ths wood of this guitar.
This one goes in the lifetime keeper pile for me:

What does reversing the neck humbucker like this do to the tone. I've seen it done a few times and just wondering the reason for doing it.

Great PRS guitars posted here, guys!!
For those who know me from Birds and Moons and Vintage Rocker, you guys know I love the "Ted's", the DC 245's based on the 2010 Ted McCarty Limited runs.
This one is my favorite since the day it arrived in August 2012, Private Stock DC 245 Ted, in Jade Glow:

This McSoapwood Standard was a "rescue" and one of the very best guitars I have ever played. The frets were shot, and the original turquoise finish has ugly blemishes beneath the lacquer. I got it for a song, and decided to really make it mine.
I had it re-fretted and pleked by Larry Fitzgerald who also installed a new delrin nut. For the pickups, he installed a set of Lindy Fralin P90's (vintage underwound) and an RS vintage electronics kit to round it off. The bridge is original and it came with Tone Pro's locking studs already installed. The tuners are locking gotoh's.
The guitar was refinished in Fender Lake Placid Blue by Marty Bell out in SoCal, and I mated the blue finish with some cream appointments.
Totally killer, and one that I will never willingly sell!

I think this is my guitar, this photo from the last few days in the PRS Private Stock shop in Maryland. Matches my specs, that's the exact color and wood grain style I requested and sent them jpegs to match, it's a DGT, timing is right (I ordered in mid November) so this is probably my ordered Private Stock. Nitro is curing, I figure this guitar would ship in early March. DGT, mahog neck, cocobolo fretboard and headstock overlay, MEQ style birds, bird on neck heel, ebony tuner buttons, matching (to top) flame maple rear cavity and truss rod covers. Otherwise like a stock DGT. My dream PRS.

This is my one and only REAL PRS.It's a '88 "Special", and I've yet to see another Goldtop like it. They were made from '88-'91, and I've yet to see another with the tone knob, tremolo-up routing and Gold paint job. This guitar has one of the best wide thin necks I've ever found on any other PRS. I waited for years till this one fell in my lap.
