I special ordered this last year, it was finished on 11/30/2016 and delivered to me the second week,of December. I have been building a new recording studio and haven't had time to play it for more than a few minutes. PRS discontinued the 513 model shortly after my guitar was built. This guitar has the PRS 513 pickup system which allows for 5 singlecoil pickups to be selected in 13 variations, singlecoil, light humbucking and heavy humbucking with different pickup combinations. You no longer to need to switch back and forth between your single coil guitar and your humbuckers. It comes with the case and case candy. Be aware that some sellers like to claim they are selling new PRS guitars covered by warranty. PRS warranties only cover the guitars bought new from a registered PRS dealer. Their warranties are non-transferable. Because of my recording studio money pit, I have to sell off a few items to pay the creditors. I am not parting with this guitar easily. The right owner will know its value. I'm not sure there is a new Faded Whale Blue 513 with gold hardware anywhere. You can research this guitar on the PRS website for specs. Another thing is some people keep adding what the guitar weighs. I contacted PRS and they don't keep weight records on any if their guitars. You would need the proper type of scale to get an accurate weight otherwise it's just guesswork. My pictures were taken with overhead lighting and do not do justice to this finish which changes as the light source changes, once again, you can find better photos of this guitar's finish on the PRS website. I don't load stock photos of my sales items, only actual photographs and I'm not a professional photographer.This is the last of the 513 line. PRS has replaced this model with the 509 which actually has less tonal variation. Someday the 513 could become one of the classics of the early 21st century. You can buy this as an investment or to play one of the most versatile guitars ever made.
