Here are two more PRS McCarty Korinas with the Brazilian Rosewood. The EPA thing is very recent and the investigation is still going on so this has not hit the press yet, but it will and when it does!!!

Luckily PRS had completed and shipped to it's dealers "70" of the McCarty Korinas, and you have one of them! The rest of the McCarty's have Indian Rosewood. So Gibson calls the EPA and gets them to go after PRS for using the Brazilian an "Endangered Protected Species"!! The EPA goes into PRS and shuts down production NOTHING with Brazilian is getting out of the place. When Gibson found out PRS was making the McCarty Korina (incidentally named after a former president of Gibson USA) they decided to make it out of Korina body and neck and Brazilian Rosewood Fret board the same materials used on the original 1954-1957 Flying V's and Explorers! Again Gibson gets them twisted but can't do anything legally against PRS.

This is why.When PRS made it's "Single Cut" our friends at Gibson got them twisted because they said it looked too much like the Les Paul, out came the corporate lawyers, but, you can't license a body shape, so poo on Gibson. Here's why yours is so special: PRS was able to place the Brazilian Rosewood on only "70" McCarty Korinas!!! But they offered the "Brazilian Rosewood" with "Bird" inlays as an optional feature.
