Up for sale, a 2022 Paul Reed Smith Wood Library Modern Eagle V 10 Top in like-new, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original paisley Multi-Fit case, hangtags and additional factory documentation. Among the most versatile PRS models available, the Modern Eagle V features an HSH pickup complement with a vast array of switching options and pickup pairings. This particular Wood Library Modern Eagle V sports a Faded Blue Jeans nitro lacquer finish and Pattern neck profile, predating the Modern Eagle V’s addition to the Core line by a year.
Tonewoods include a mahogany body, bookmatched flame maple “10” Top, mahogany neck, and 22-fret rosewood fretboard. The pickups comprise a pair of TCI humbuckers flanking an NS-01 single coil: the humbuckers are rich and warm, with smooth treble articulation, and the NS-01 yields single coil sparkle and snap. Via the extensive controls, there are a huge range of available pickup pairings (and resultant tones) on tap, including coil tap mini-toggles for the humbuckers, a push/pull control at the Tone knob to engage both humbuckers (enabling all three pickups to be engaged in the middle position), and a 250K/500K Volume pot mini-toggle. This Modern Eagle V weighs 8lbs 5oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and spot-on intonation.

The gloss Faded Blue Jeans nitro lacquer finish highlights the uniform, dimensional chevron flame figuring in the bookmatched maple “10” Top. There’s barely a scratch on the body, and the smooth nitro gloss on the neck profile is similarly pristine.
