1996 Paul Reed Smith Custom 22 Tremolo Bridge Gold Top. Maple Top, Mahogany body and neck. Rosewood fret board with moon inlays. Three way toggle for pickup selection and push/pull tone pot for single coil selection. Wide Fat neck. I purchased this guitar in 2011. It has been on stage a handful of times. Hung on the wall in a temperature controlled room all the rest.  It's a beautiful guitar, very compact. The neck is one of the smoothest I've played. The biggest cosmetic flaw is on the headstock. I purchased it this way. Other than that there are minor dings and chips from being played. Most Custom 22's usually have the covered, chrome plated dragon pickups. 1996 was unique having uncovered dragons. It currently has DR 11's on it that are a few years old. Hard case included. Previous winning bidder backed out, so I am relishing this guitar.

I was surprised to learn this, as the body is in fact a maple top. I'm having trouble changing the heading title. I still feel it is a fair price for a great guitar.
