Actually... you found those images right here on the Official PRS Forum. I had those photos taken a few months ago. I love BRW McCartys!

I'd love to see this thread try to collect all 250! Here is number 168 (which I recently sold to FlukePete).

And here's one that passed through my hands a few years ago in Turquise (pretty uncommon color). No idea which number it was. The seller (GC) had lost the hang-tag and back-plate.

And then there was this one (#139). It has an AMAZING black neck. It now belongs to my friend Shigeura San.

And then there is the MOB. It pre-dates the limited run.

Here's #249. She has the best neck of any guitar I've ever played. I did a pickup swap for a set of zebra 57/08s. Great guitars...

#234 was the perfect one for me...

Before I left Rosie behind for what the hog does for my ears...

I like all of these BRW McCartys. But this one makes me drool. Love the McCartyburst and Soapies!

This is all we have? :(

What a great run.

Hey guys ! I was gone for a few days and pleasantly surprised there were some new,beautiful pics posted in the meantime.

I've found a couple of other Brazilian rosewoods and I'll be posting them over the next few days...Stay tuned !!

White is so Classy on a guitar!!! Beeeeeautiful!!!

I've been watching that one on eBay for awhile. Jack Gretz has it listed for $4600. She's absolutely gorgeous.

I have a folder with some BRW McCarty photos I've saved over the years. If the owners of those guitars don't post them in the next few weeks, I'll email them and ask their permission before I do.

Either way, I'd love to see this thread try to account for all 250 from the limited run.

Yes,that would be great if we could see the whole run pictured here and though I guess it's a long shot we can certainly try...!!

I keep track of all of them (appearing in this thread and elsewhere-hey,what's a guy to do with his time?) and I've counted 42 so far.
So still a long way to go...

I'll be posting some new pics this afternoon. Cheers,Peter.

Okay,here we go...

This beauty belongs to a guy named Nick who's got lots of vids up on YouTube where you can see him playing this here guitar.Don't know the number though...Nick ??

And here's a bunch of Brazzies I found on a Japanese webshop somewhere. Obviously,I couldn't figure out what the heck they were saying on that site when it comes to specifications and so forth but I understood enough to see that these were BRWs (correct me if I'm wrong though).

Dark cherry sunburst with quilted top and moons (no number to be found in pics) :

#166 Violin amber sunburst. Just a beautiful top.

I'm surprised that PRS themselves haven't got a photo archive of these guitars along with the PS and other top models, there must be something somewhere surely?

So this is what, 19 out of 250? I can't believe there aren't more of us here that own these beauties. :(

BTW, there are 2 on ebay as we speak:

I was lucky enough to get to play one of these when it came in used at a local GC. VERY nice guitar!

These are kind of like the original Modern Eagles. Very cool.
