Fox 5 DC TV Visits the Factory

3.19.07



Fox 5 Weatherman Tony Perkins visited the factory as part of his live segment "Let Tony Try It." Perkins delivered live weather reports and tried more than nine different guitar building techniques on live television such as sanding, staining, winding a pick-up, inlaying fretboard birds, stringing a guitar and rocking out a few guitar riffs in final assembly on Carlos Santana's testing amp. Paul Smith offered direction for Perkins during some of the tasks while highly skilled PRS craftsmen helped guide Perkins through other tricky procedures. Perkins won't be joining the PRS production team anytime soon but the experience was certainly fun for everyone at PRS and the Fox 5 team. Thanks again Fox 5. We had a blast!
