PRS Modern Eagle V "10 Top" Wood Library | Faded Blue Burst

The PRS Modern Eagle V Wood Library in Faded Blue Burst is the kind of Wood Library piece that reminds you why these runs are so sought after. Wood Library builds step beyond standard production specifications, giving select dealers access to hand-chosen woods and combinations rarely seen together. They live in that sweet spot between Core and Private Stock, where standout materials and special appointments take priority.

The first thing that stops you here is the top. This quilt maple 10 Top is outrageous. The figuring has a tubular, three-dimensional character that shifts constantly in the light and easily reaches Private Stock territory from a visual standpoint. Under the Faded Blue Burst finish, every contour of the violin carve comes alive.

The details only get better from there. Instead of the usual mahogany platform, this build pairs that top with a swamp ash back for a livelier, snappier response and added openness. The one-piece curly maple neck is stained to match the top, while the ebony fretboard adds a sharp, premium contrast. These are the kinds of features you simply won’t find on a standard production PRS.

Loaded with TCI humbuckers, an NS-01 middle pickup, and the expansive switching system the Modern Eagle V is known for, this guitar covers serious ground sonically. But make no mistake, the real story here is the Wood Library recipe: exceptional woods, uncommon specs, and a top that looks like it should have been reserved for Private Stock.
