Overview

Modeled after the guitar Dweezil designed with the Private Stock team.

Limited to a run of 50 guitars, the new Dweezil Zappa Private Stock semi-hollow model features a unique Custom 24 mandolin shape. The dramatically different shape of the mandolin inspired body with two f-holes is a departure from any guitar body shape PRS has ever created. Dweezil's personal model and the limited run of 50 are, however, unmistakably PRS.

The ribboned mahogany body is topped with curly maple and given a Vintage Gold Burst finish of thin semi-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. The Private Stock-grade curly maple neck with the Wide Fat neck shape lays the foundation for a Macassar ebony 24-fret fingerboard while the rowdy bass and treble clef inlay motif pays homage to the Zappa family legacy of eclectic playfulness. The matching maple veneer headstock is highlighted by a mother-of-pearl Private Stock eagle inlay. A pair of 57/08 humbucker pickups sport cr¨me pickup mounting rings and a controlled by a master volume and tone with a 3-way toggle and out-of-phase switching.

"It was really fun”and easy”to work with the team at PRS. I spoke with them a few times at various stages of the instrument. They were very helpful and knowledgeable. It's a great experience to build something from raw pieces of wood into the finished instrument. I never had the opportunity to do that before," said Dweezil.
