This is a result of PRS.' CNC ( robot-assisted) manufacturing process. This design does not however allow intonation to be adjusted to compensate for variations in string thickness or drop tuning. PRS guitars feature three original bridge designs: a one-piece pre-intonated stoptail, an intonatable is unique to PRS and can be used because PRS manufacturing tolerances are so tight, guaranteeing that the distance between witness points will be within a few thousandths of an inch from guitar to guitar. Nuts are synthetic tuners are of PRS' own design, although some models feature Korean-made Kluson-style tuners. Inlay materials have included semiprecious stones all sorts of iridescent shells, including abalone and abalone laminates gold and even such exotic and costly materials as unearthed ivory from the (extinct) woolly mammoth. The bird inlays feature nine or ten different birds inlayed at the appropriate frets. The moons appear similar to standard dot inlays, but have a crescent more prominent than the rest of the dot. PRS's signature fret markers include the lower end moons, and the higher end birds. PRS necks are usually made from mahogany, although some models feature maple or Indian or Brazilian rosewood necks fingerboards are made of rosewood. PRS guitars often feature highly figured tops, including flame maple and quilt maple. The bodies are crafted of mahogany, with a maple top on some models their maple tops are graded according to their "figure", referring to the visual character of the wood. Wood selection plays a major role in crafting a PRS guitar. PRS guitars were originally crafted for local musicians and have since become highly prized by musicians and collectors across the world.
