Here's how PRS describes the ARTIST SERIES Guitars:

"Occasionally a mahogany board comes into our shop that is extra dense and resonant. Sometimes the figuire and curl in a particular block of curly maple is absolutley exceptional. These rare pieces become the Artsit Series. My favorite stains...violin glues...Abalone inlays...vintage tones...Our Very Best."
