The Single Cut was introduced in 2000 and immediately attracted the attention of Gibson, who filed a lawsuit against PRS claiming trademark infringement of the Les Paul single cutaway body shape - a legal battle that ultimately went in PRS's favour and confirmed the Single Cut's right to exist as an independent design in its own right. A 2001 example is therefore a genuine first-generation instrument from the opening chapter of the Single Cut story, and the Artist Package specification elevates it to the highest level of the model's original offering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Artist Package designation signifies a highly figured maple top selected for exceptional visual quality - in McCarty Sunburst, the warm amber and brown tones of the burst deepen beautifully across the dramatic flame or quilt figure of the maple, producing a visual character that is as individual and striking as any guitar PRS has produced. Mahogany back and mahogany Wide Fat neck deliver the warm, resonant, and sustain-rich tonal foundation that defines the single-cut mahogany body format, while PRS #7 treble and bass humbuckers - among the most musically versatile and tonally sophisticated pickups PRS has fitted to a production instrument - provide a warm, clear, and dynamically expressive humbucker voice with excellent note separation and harmonic complexity. Abalone bird fingerboard inlays, rosewood fingerboard with 10\" radius, PRS adjustable stoptail bridge, gold hardware, clear lamp shade knobs, and rosewood headstock veneer complete an instrument of considerable beauty and genuine historical significance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis 2001-built guitar is in fabulous condition, with light playwear and some light patina to the tailpiece. The action is low and fast, and the tone is fat, clear and clean - a tremendous solid body with a high-end aesthetic.
