For sale: PRS CE22. Now only £630.00 (while something else is available...)

fretmeister

Selling my PRS CE22.

Repaired dings:

It currently has a Seymour Duncan Custom in the bridge position, but the original pickup will come with it too.

Also comes with a nice soft bag.

It's a superb guitar, but I'm much more comfortable with a Les Paul, and I've found a nice Epi Les Paul that will do me just fine. So this must go.

£700.00 collected from Northants

The only possible trade I'm interested in would be a Bergantino CN112 bass cab!

And here is a short vid of our own DefaultM playing it (he was the previous owner) with his Axe-FX. He plays far better than I do as I'm a ham fisted bassist.

Wide fat or wide thin neck my good man?

fretmeister

That's a very good question.

I was under the impression that all CE22 were Wide Fat. (Doesn't feel fat to me!).

Is there a serial number checker wotsit that would tell me?

guitarfishbay

The fat doesn't feel fat but the thin does feel thin - if that makes sense.

If it is a post 2001 then it is definitely wide fat.  https://www.prsguitars.com/csc/year.html

So I'm none the wiser?

It's post 2001, more like a 2006 by that serial number. The Hot Hues colours were only introduced in '05 anyway.

Lol - I couldn't read the serial number without my glasses I was hoping you guys would sort it out amongst yourselves. I'm not even buying it! (I would if I had the cash though!)

fretmeister

I'll take a better photo of the serial number when I get a mo!

fretmeister

It's a 2006.

So that means wide fat I guess. Still slim to me!!

I've had a request for details of the gig bag so here are some photos

Bump

Pre Christmas offer because I've spotted something I want...

£630.00 and I'll throw in a Joyo Vintage Overdrive (It's a TS in drag)

Ughh...I don't need it, i don't need it.....

stonevibe

I really don't need another guitar. But that is really nice.

I'm telling myself the chips will put me off. They won't, but that is what I'm telling myself.

The best PRS guitars are pre-dinged PRS guitars.

They've been played in (and out), the price is a lot more justifiable, and you're not worried about causing £200 of resale damage by putting the first ding in it, so you play it more.

At the current price ... BARGAIN.  I'm de-guitaring, else I'd've had it.

SHHHH I'm not listening. For serious though, new job doesn't start until January so I wont get paid for another 5-6 weeks. And Christmas was not cheap. However, I will be earning about £900 more a month after tax

Also not buying guitars right now, but that's a cool guitar at a very tempting price. Someone's going to get a bargain.

Dings also remove any association with Nickelback and Dentists.

A Wow! for @DefaultM 's playing, nice!

fretmeister

Someone must want it!

It's as cheap as chips already so if you are waiting for a further price drop it won't be happening, and the shiny thing I want to buy is £625 and I need to cover the purchase completely or my wife will kill me! Again.

Can you offer 24 months 0%? Please? ;-)

With an upfront security deposit of £1000 that is certainly possible!
