Job started out with stock 1999 PRS Hollow
Body 10 Top.
The customer did not like the heel profile or the thickness
of the neck.
He contracted me to do the reduction surgery. It is rare that someone will
buy a brand new $4,500.00 (Very Overpriced) Guitar only to have someone
do major surgery on it immediately.
We contacted PRS to try to get some information on just how
deep we could cut before we struck truss rod.
They weren't very helpful so we had to proceed into this job very very
carefully.
Currently I do this job on the PRS CE Models at least 10
times a month and the custom models about twice a month. There has never been a
single problem with one of these jobs to date.
