0.00USD+ applicable fees & taxes.
This item WAS NOT SOLD. Auction date was 2004 Apr 17 @ 17:00UTC-06:00 : CST/MDT
1985 Paul Reed Smith Standard Prototype. This instrument is one of 20 pre-production Paul Reed Smith prototypes built for and displayed at the 1985 Summer National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) trade show. The "NAMM 20" guitars are documented in The PRS Guitar Book: A Complete History of Paul Reed Smith Guitars, and are highly sought after by PRS collectors. The guitar has no serial number, and features all of the early trademark PRS appointments, including the more pronounced arch to the top, and a small neck heel. It is in excellent original condition, with no modifications. The finish, locking tuner collars and tremelo bridge all reveal that although this is a fine guitar this is not a production PRS instrument. The guitar is an excellent player, in the PRS tradition. This guitar was purchased new from the first authorized PRS dealer, in the U.S. in 1985. Included with the instrument is the original case and all of the original paperwork provided with their new instruments. Also included is a letter of authenticity from the original owner, a copy of The PRS Guitar Book, and a letter of authenticity from a noted PRS authority. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.

BIDS ON HIS LOTS IN ADVANCE OF THE AUCTION. ON LOTS SUBJECT TO A RESERVE,
IF THE LOT DOES NOT MEET THE RESERVE THE CONSIGNOR MAY PAY A REDUCED
COMMISSION ON THOSE LOTS. Reserves are generally posted online about 72

opinion with respect to the grade offered by any third-party organization,
dealer, or service. There are absolutely no exceptions to this policy.
Under extremely limited circumstances, (e.g. gross cataloging error) a
purchaser, who did not bid from the floor, may request Auctioneer to void
a sale. Such request for evaluation must be made in writing detailing the
alleged gross error, and submission of the lot to the Auctioneer must be
preapproved by the Auctioneer. A Bidder must notify Jack Hinton, (ext.
312) in writing of the Bidder's request and such notice must be mailed
within three (3) days of the mail Bidder's receipt of the lot. Any lot
that is to be evaluated must be received in our offices within 30 days
from the date of auction. Grading or method of manufacture do not qualify
for this evaluation process nor do such complaints constitute a basis to
challenge the authenticity of a lot. AFTER THAT 30-DAY PERIOD, NO LOTS MAY
BE RETURNED FOR REASONS OTHER THAN AUTHENTICITY. Lots returned must be

may be returned (including those Bidders acting as agents for others).
