Well, just got back from a trip, and this came in while I was gone. I was a big Jane's fan, and always liked Navarro's style of playing. That mixed with banging Carmen Electra, I had to have one. Not to mention, I am a huge fan of white guitars, and this is the brightest white I have ever encountered. No stupid ass 5 way rotary guess dial,MOP birds, really nice playing and sounding guitar. Essentially a custom 24, with a few minor differences. Now to the incredible..CHECK out that rosewood..Ever seen anything quite that nice? it is almost liquid in person.

This my third PRS. I also own a Singlecut trem, and a custom 22, and I absolutely love them all.

Killer!

That's a really interesting cut of BRW.
I like these pieces better than straight grained ones.

Enjoy.

Too bad he's going where dennis rodman has before though.
I wouldnt complain though.

Thats a really beautiful guitar. I don't think I've ever seen rosewood like that before.

Congrats! I got mine a couple of weeks ago and I'm really pleased with it. The fretboard on yours is far more figured than mine.

I echo the comments about the fingerboard...gorgeous!

What was the first Jane's Addiction song you played on it? (I would probably do "I had a dad" or "Ocean size", but that's me).

It's got a really dark sound, I like it alot. Thats strange about the fretboard, mine is wild, have never seen anything like it. I dont think it's BRW though.....

BRW is the spec for the Navarro model and your fingerboard has damn near as much figure as Carmen Electra!

PRS is got a load of great lookin' rosewood they are currently using for fretboards. I've got two 20 th Anniversary Customm 22's (one trem, one stop tail) with boards similar to that Navarro guitar. Great stuff!

Very cool. Love the look but I don't dig set neck guitars. I sold my Custom 24 but kept my CE24.

My CE has the toggle instead of the rotary selector and I agree with you that it's worlds more usable. I could never tell where I was on the selector with the rotary.

How much more expensive is the Navarro over the regular CU24?
