PRS Private Stock Custom 24 Piezo Stoptail 'Opaque Study' Olive Drab Green
DESCRIPTION
Ish’s latest PRS Private Stock collaboration: the Custom 24 Piezo Olive Drab Green “Opaque Study”.
Why do we call this a “study”? When pushing the boundaries of guitar spec’ing, we sometimes deep-dive into the thought process behind the design of an instrument and study the execution of a build so that we can use it to influence our future designs. This is one of those guitars.
The question: how do we produce an opaque-painted guitar that is worthy of the Private Stock moniker?
The solution: An analogous color pallet inspired by a Lamborghini Huracan STO. The Olive Drab Green color allowed us to use the natural color palette in roasted flamed maple (combined with gold hardware) for the ultimate, cohesive mix of tonewood and aesthetics.
Further touches like no pickup rings, wrap-around stoptail, and back plates that match the neck and binding were added to keep the guitar clean-yet-detail-oriented. The longer you look at this piece, the more small details you notice.
And boy, did the Private Stock team deliver… They collaborated with us to make sure this guitar was truly special, and perfectly executed our vision. We absolutely will be using this piece for future inspiration, the true definition of a “study”.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED
After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.
