Current Status: Active touring use (A Rig - Db Ab Db Gb Bb main guitar) Notes: Brad acquired this now-iconic guitar in late 2001, but it didn't make its stage debut until Projekt Revolution in 2002. Brad used both this guitar and his sunburst Custom 24 as his primary guitar at different points during that tour, but this guitar became his main guitar in 2003, and has remained in that role ever since. In addition to the soldier artwork, a particularly interesting feature of this guitar is the "gas mask" logo on the headstock - It takes the place of what would usually be the "Paul Reed Smith" signature/logo, making this one of a VERY small number of guitars PRS has ever built without their logo on it (possibly the only one, in fact)! Brad acquired a 22-fret version of this guitar in 2008, and a second 24-fret version was added the following year (both of these guitars are mentioned further below). The original version of this guitar had its bridge replaced in 2010, as the intonation screws were stripped and the guitar kept going out of tune. This guitar was also used in the music videos for "Somewhere I Belong," "Faint," and "From the Inside." Brad also used it during the filming of "Breaking the Habit," but when they turned the live performance footage into animation, they made his guitar blue instead for some reason!
