Paul Reed Smith Modern Eagle V - Wood Library - Jade with Brazilian Rosewood Fretboard and Hard Shell Case

The Paul Reed Smith Modern Eagle V - Wood Library - A tonal powerhouse wrapped in stunning custom style

Premium tonewoods and flawless craftsmanship

This Modern Eagle V is part of PRS’s exclusive Wood Library series and was custom built for Five Star Guitars with hand-selected tonewoods. The body features a luscious 10-top carved from flame maple and paired with a resonant African mahogany back for a harmonically rich and well-balanced voice. A genuine mahogany neck topped with a Brazilian rosewood fretboard provides silky playability and deep sustain. The attention to detail in the wood choice and finishing reflects PRS’s highest standards.

Exclusive Brazilian rosewood fretboard for enhanced tone and feel

One of the standout features of this guitar is the ultra-rare Brazilian rosewood fretboard, known for its luxurious feel and complex tonal characteristics. The fretboard is adorned with sparkle abalone-outlined bird inlays with mother of pearl centers, offering a blend of elegance and tradition. A Brazilian rosewood headstock veneer with a vintage ivory PRS signature completes the cohesive, upscale aesthetic.

Advanced electronics for endless versatility

Equipped with TCI pickups in the neck and bridge positions and a narrow MEV single-coil in the middle, the Modern Eagle V delivers a remarkably broad tonal range. The 5-way blade switch and duo of mini-toggles allow for coil-splitting and unique combinations that make this guitar equally at home with pristine cleans or searing lead tones. Whether you're exploring blues, rock, funk, or fusion, this instrument adapts effortlessly to your playing style.

Gen-3 tremolo and locking tuners for rock-solid performance

The Gen-3 PRS tremolo offers expressive vibrato with superior tuning stability, thanks to its knife-edge design and robust construction. Smoked black Phase III locking tuners with black wing buttons not only match the aesthetic but also make string changes a breeze. Every component is chosen for both function and form, allowing for a premium playing experience both onstage and in the studio.

Unique finish and case to match

This Modern Eagle V comes dressed in an eye-catching Jade finish with a Jade Burst, perfectly highlighting the flame maple 10-top. The satin nitro-style finish lets the tonewoods breathe while offering a smooth and broken-in feel from the first strum. It includes a matching black paisley hard shell case shaped for the double-cut body, giving this heirloom-quality instrument the protection it deserves.
