PRS / SC-58 / 2011 / Black Gold / Guitar
We are proud to have among us an amazing SC-58. As you may know, these have been discontinued on 2012, and it’s rare to see any of them around. Not to be mistaken with the current “Stripped” version!
Designed for more traditional guitarists (cutaway all-timers), it has great classic tone and resonance. It features a very comfortable 24.5’’ scale, and stable tuning thanks to its two-piece bridge.
With an Artist Grade top, V12 finish (a mixture between nitro and acrylic that avoids finish cracking, but lets the wood breathe very well), adjustable two-piece bridge (the same one in Private Stocks), Phase III locking tuners, a Pattern Neck Shape (an update of the Wide Fat PRS, based on Santana’s custom-made instruments from the 70’s and 80’s), as well as it’s dashing hardcase (just like the ones many Private Stocks have) make this guitar a unique piece, and at an amazing price (you can find it new for around 4 - 4.2k€).
The Black Gold color is one of the most amazing ones from PRS. Check out the last photo... it is the same guitar, but on broad daylight!
In a mint condition, it’s an “under the bed” guitar. New frets, no signs of wear... nada. We did find a very small ding on the back we had missed twice (yes, it is hard to spot, check the picture). It includes OHSC and all case candy.

Guitar Giraffe, Spain
In the last few years, online sale for musical instruments has experienced an amazing growth, but has passed right through the pre-owned market (that is, in Spain), limiting it to specialised forums and private owners. This is why Guitar Giraffe was born, the first physical and online second hand guitar and amp store (we like to call it "pre-owned", since we see a big difference between both terms), with a clear commitment of giving new options to guitarists locally and worldwide. Pre-owned guitar stores, so common in UK and USA, were practically nonexistent in Spain. We’ve wanted to fill that empty space by becoming the first physical and online store in our country focused on pre-owned guitars and amps.
