The Paul Reed Smith Eddie’s Guitars Wood Library Studio – Swamp Ash/Brazilian in Aquableux is a breathtaking showcase of PRS craftsmanship, custom-spec artistry, and tonal versatility. Built exclusively for Eddie’s Guitars through their prestigious Wood Library program, this Studio model blends exotic tonewoods, luxurious appointments, and a uniquely expressive pickup configuration. The result is an instrument that feels simultaneously elegant, powerful, and endlessly inspiring.

At its core, this guitar combines a resonant Swamp Ash back with a shimmering Maple Ten Top—a top-tier figured maple cap selected for its beauty and tonal clarity. Finished in the striking Aquableux colorway, the guitar radiates with depth and dimensional flame, contrasting beautifully with the darker ash grain. A stained figured maple neck completes the motif, adding both visual continuity and a snappy, articulate response that pairs exceptionally with the ash/maple body combination.

The feel of the instrument is equally refined. The neck is carved to PRS’s comfortable Pattern profile, with measured depths of 7/8" at the 1/2 fret and 61/64" at the 12 1/2 fret, giving players a beautifully substantial yet ergonomic grip. The neck measures 1 11/16" at the nut and 2 1/4" at the body, providing ample fretboard real estate while maintaining PRS’s trademark playability. Topped with an exquisite Brazilian Rosewood fretboard, the guitar delivers both luxurious touch and tonal complexity. The board is adorned with exclusive Eddie’s Wood Library J-Birds, featuring Gold MOP outlines with Paua centers—a stunning inlay combination you won’t find on standard production models.

Playability is enhanced further by a 10" radius and 22 frets across a comfortable 25" scale length, offering the perfect blend of bending ease and chordal balance. Hardware includes the ultra-reliable PRS Gen III Patented Tremolo and Phase III Locking Tuners with Wing Buttons, all finished in sleek Smoked Black for a modern, coordinated aesthetic. PRS Signature 10–46 strings come standard, making the instrument stage-ready right out of the case.

Tonally, this Studio model is exceptionally versatile thanks to its unique pickup configuration. A McCarty III treble humbucker at the bridge provides vintage-leaning clarity and punch, while the PRS Narrowfield pickups in the middle and neck positions offer single-coil-like sparkle with humbucker-style fullness and noise rejection. Together, they create a wide palette of tones—from chimey cleans and expressive blues textures to articulate modern fusion tones and rich overdriven punch. A Volume, Push/Pull Tone Control, and 5-Way Blade Switch unlock an impressive array of combinations, making this instrument a true all-purpose performer.

The guitar arrives in a Hard Black Paisley Case, completing the package with style and protection befitting a Wood Library instrument of this caliber.

Overall, the PRS Eddie’s Guitars Wood Library Studio in Aquableux is not just a guitar—it’s a piece of functional art. It offers world-class aesthetics, premium materials, and a sonic range capable of handling any musical direction. For discerning players and collectors alike, this Studio model represents PRS craftsmanship at its most inspired.
