The PRS Eddie’s Guitars Wood Library Studio Brazilian / Rosewood Neck – Charcoal Burst is a masterfully curated instrument that blends exclusive tonewoods, refined aesthetics, and the versatile Studio platform into one inspiring build. Created through the acclaimed Wood Library program in collaboration with Eddie's Guitars and handcrafted by PRS Guitars, this guitar represents a rare opportunity to experience a thoughtfully selected combination of premium materials and performance-driven design.

Visually, the Charcoal Burst finish brings depth and drama to the Quilt Maple Ten Top. The tight, rippling figure of the maple shifts under light, creating a three-dimensional effect that contrasts beautifully against the warm, resonant korina back. This pairing not only delivers striking aesthetics but also provides a balanced tonal foundation—maple adding articulation and snap, while korina contributes warmth, midrange richness, and airy resonance. The smoked black hardware completes the look with a modern, understated edge.

One of the defining features of this instrument is its luxurious neck and fingerboard combination. The East Indian rosewood neck offers a smooth, organic feel with a naturally warm tonal character, while the Brazilian rosewood fretboard adds clarity, harmonic complexity, and a glassy response that discerning players immediately recognize. The Pattern neck carve measures 7/8" at the 1/2 fret and 61/64" at the 12 1/2 fret, with a 1 11/16" nut width and 2 1/4" width at the body, providing a substantial yet comfortable grip. The 10" radius and 25" scale length ensure effortless playability across all 22 frets, striking a perfect balance between vintage familiarity and modern precision.

Aesthetically, the fretboard is adorned with exclusive Eddie’s Wood Library “J-Birds” inlays, featuring gold mother-of-pearl outlines and luminous paua centers. These elegant details elevate the instrument’s visual identity while reinforcing its limited-edition character.

Tonally, this Studio configuration offers remarkable versatility. In the treble position, the McCarty III pickup delivers articulate vintage-inspired humbucking tones with clarity and punch. The middle and bass positions feature PRS Narrowfield pickups, offering focused single-coil character with hum-canceling performance and exceptional note definition. Controlled via a master volume and push/pull tone control paired with a 5-way blade switch, this layout unlocks a wide range of voices—from warm, blooming cleans to cutting leads and harmonically rich overdrive textures.

Performance hardware includes the PRS Patented Tremolo, Gen III, engineered for smooth feel and tuning stability, along with PRS Phase III locking tuners fitted with wing buttons for quick string changes and rock-solid reliability. Strung with PRS Signature 10–46 strings and housed in a Black Paisley hard case, every detail supports both stage readiness and long-term protection.

The PRS Eddie’s Guitars Wood Library Studio Brazilian / Rosewood Neck – Charcoal Burst stands as a refined fusion of premium tonewoods, custom aesthetics, and expansive tonal capability. It is an instrument designed for players who demand expressive nuance, boutique-level appointments, and the unmistakable craftsmanship that defines PRS at its finest.
