Personal Thoughts:
The Modern Eagle I is a genuinely important model in PRS history. Released as a no-expense-spared flagship, it marked a turning point where PRS leaned hard into tonewood selection, vintage-inspired electronics, and restrained aesthetics rather than flash.
This Amber example is exactly what collectors and players hope to find — understated, elegant, and deeply musical. The rosewood board adds warmth and richness, while the Modern Eagle pickups deliver clarity, depth, and dynamic response that sits somewhere between classic PAF territory and unmistakable PRS articulation. Clean tones are wide and piano-like, while driven sounds remain open and harmonically complex.
Early Modern Eagle I guitars like this are increasingly sought after, not just as collectibles, but because they simply sound exceptional.
