So incredible to be living in this time and growing up with this music. And during PRS guitars while the man is here. There’s no Leo or Orville around. But we have Paul and that’s awesome!

Carlos has proven, time and again, that it's not 32nd notes that make a guitarist great - it's playing great music.

At the risk of repeating what any PRS owner knows, it's actually a privilege to own and play Paul's guitars. I know they are expensive, but after years of owning and playing many other guitars, and finally getting one (I have a few now) you can't afford not to own at least one. They are absolutely magnificent.

That was really something else! Mr.Santana is a special human being,...

Carlos never really says anything bitter or negative, always talking about loving music and bringing people together. Really enjoy his point of view and the music will live forever. Thanks Carlos and Paul.

Just incredible. Carlos is a living sage. What a beautiful soul. Paul is so humble as well!

What a legend

"When it's time to do what you do, just present your heart." Good lord, how real is this and how valuable it is to EVERYTHING you do in life? Be GENUINELY YOU even when that's scary and raw.

The man ,the myth, the legend,Mr.Carlos Santana. Thanks for all the great years of music. Munchas gracias por la musica.😷🤓😎👍🎛️🎙️🎼🎵🎶PRS. 🙏🙏Por la guitarra

i never forget the night i first saw CS play. Brisbane 1979. Next morning i bought my first guitar. Have bought 2 customs PRS santana high end guitars, about to buy the third. Thanks C and P for doing this talk. Love you. Love your work. JP

Without a doubt, Carlos Santana is a True LEGEND!!! He is at the top of my main influence as a guitarist, my other influence is Al DiMeola. Thanks PRS for your influence in the industry, you are a force to be reckoned & you'll be down in music history as an essential guitar builder! Merry Christmas to you and your family, stay safe my friend, Rock On & God Bless!!!

PRS is the best thing / person to happen to electric guitar in the past 35 years.

Just got my first PRS 245 SE New Years eve. I absolutely love. hands down best guitar I have ever owned

Two legends!

Carlos was the Shaman for both Mesa Boogie and PRS guitars!

I've been a fan of both PRS guitars and Santana for a while now, but man... This just took me a step further as a fan of you both. I like to vibrate and resonate with the ethos of the makers of things that I own. As if I didn't want to have a PRS already, this has got my itch even stronger. And Carlos giving just important life advice in this form... Geez, what a way to finish 2020 watching this. Thank you both immensely.

Both of you guys have been an incredible influence to me, from the first Santana album so powerful way back in high school then meeting and working with Paul getting things set up in ‘84. The first job we had when I got there was tying off and soldering a batch of strings for Carlos’ upcoming tour. The passion and drive of both of you have blessed me I can’t thank you enough for living your lives as you have done.

What a compliment to receive by a legend " do you have any idea how important you are to people who have yet to pick up a guitar?"

This is just awesome. Thanks for these videos.

love these interviews, looking forward to seeing much more and looking forward to get my own PRS one day.

Wonderful content, very inspiring. Paul keep these videos coming. Merry Christmas to all and Rock On!

I really appreciate how he thinks - or rather FEELS - profoundly when choosing his words mindfully and then what came out as answers and message resonates strongly with me. And I liked very much what he said about PRS guitars and the words he chose to reveal the quintessential essence of your accomplishments and standing in the industry and which qualtities got you to that place as well as what qualities and traits one was wise to nourish when meaning to speak to the world through music. Great stuff, I enjoyed it! Thanks! 🙏

"Walk like a giant. You're one of us now."

Thanks, you two!

Thank you Carlos, you words are gold, as your heart and your sound. I just picked up the guitar of my son couple of months ago, at the age of 46, - now, as all my children play music instruments they like - so we can play music together. Thank you both, gentlemen, for your affection, your golden heart, respect and all your dedication as artists and professionals that make it happen. Heal the Word!

Just bought a PRS for myself for Christmas. A gift of me to you! Thanks Paul for your Expressional Creation and Carlos for your Devine Inspiration.

Thank you so much for this episode and others keep it going and Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 ❤

Thank you for everything Carlos! As one of "Jerry's kids" you are one of my greatest heroes.

Awesome conversation, I love the philosophical honesty of both Carlos and Paul. Through the inspiration of the greats mentioned they retain their own identity. I love you both.🙏

Great interview. Thanks.

Hooray. I just got my first prs (se) recently and its a wonderful guitar. Thanks Paul and thanks Carlos. Legends! Great stuff 😊😊

I own 6 PRS guitars and they are all wonderful. I really like the 35th Anniversary guitar line. Love the thinner, lighter version SE's. Got my first 7 string PRS the other day and am having fun getting use to the extra string. Santana music is in a genre all by itself. Thanks Paul !!

I am grateful to you both in so many ways x

17:56 One Heart One Love Bob Marley... Thank you Carlos and Paul, you are legend!

thank you Paul for making my '86 Signature Series #4; just wonderful..Carlos Rocks!

Integrity, honesty and talent. These qualities are rarely found in the same person. Thanks Paul.

Just love some of his comments about playing music! Very good conversation!

This was the perfect day for this

This was one of the best chats between them. I got my first PRS,the Santana SE 2001 and I love playing it. It also saved a friend's band a couple times when not one but both guitars broke strings and the PRS saved the show 😆.

Awesome video Paul and Carlos!

Love love love Carlos Santa! So thoughtful, self reflective, humble, honest and transparent.

Paul comes across in these videos as a most genuine human being with a huge heart,his friends know him to be wonderful.I bow to you Sir.

Wow.....this is amazing

I been a fan of Carlos since 69 and i was hooked and when Carlos starting playing PRS guitars i was hooked and with Mesa in the mixed, it was a win win. Paul and Carlos are legends and my music heros. Blessings.

Thank you Carlos and Paul for your contributions to the music industry, I am blessed to have a 58/15 LE custom 24 and it is by far the best sounding, playing guitar I own....thanks again Paul

Noodling on my prs singlecut right now. Great couple of guys, both made and still making history.

Love it Gracias

As Carlos is getting older he is more aware of what impact Woodstock had. Carlos...my role model...an example!!

And, I got to see Carlos play in St. Petersburg one night when I was driving back to Miami. I stayed for the 3 encodes and arrived back on duty with my ears still ringing and heart beating with the drums and blood pumping sweet licks and melody. Thanks Carlos for the amazing notes strung out from the heart.

My dream guitar like my dream car Ferrari is a PRS Custom 24. Carlos Santana is a living legend of PRS guitars. Thanks Paul for this video.

Much respect to you both! #Legends

AWESOMENESS DEFINED ON EVERY LEVEL !!!! :)

This is how you get to work with the greatest artists! by being down to earth and respecting each other! F*nder take notes!

Two masters of their craft.

Carlos, a legend that changed prs forever ...

Haha “I like that answer” How beautiful was that? “ When you send my guitar it arrives in tune “ what a lovely conversation. 🙏☺️

Hi Paul and Carlos, Christmas tomorrow. Send me a guitar 🎅. Have a good one and thank you for these conversations.

Nice interview.

You guys are fun. Congratulations on your friendship

Carlos is such a beautiful soul.

There will never be a PRS ‘Hello Kitty’ model, never a sell out!

The First live performance by an international act that I saw as a teenager was Santana - 1978. In Australia back up by Eddie Money and Russel Morris. What an experience - it is embedded in my memory banks like it was yesterday. Carlos Santana is one of those unique musicians that maintained a continuity in musical creative output over his entire professional life. He didn’t appear to have any distractions or derailments along the way......he’s still going in his 70s.

I bought my PRS 594 and my Swart AST Pro and have been having so much fun!

Carlos- what a legend! I also think Paul is a guitar maker legend too! Love my McCarty 594, Silver Sky and SE Hollowbody 2!

His first factory was in the attic of the Ram's Head Tavern on West St in Annapolis, less than a mile from here (before it became a music venue). I knew one of his cohorts in the early 1990's, who started with Paul, dragging the guitars to concerts (I had never even heard of PRS). It was sheer tenacity, innovation, and high standards that built his success. Thankful that he never gave up.

Where have u been Mr. Santana? We miss you!!

Nice Call Paul & Carlos !

I thought Santana would be older. Looking good, dude.

Wow!

Carlos Santana is the man; who got me into "latin music". Who can't feel the rhythms of Africa in "Soul Sacrifice"? It is there and in your body. Some day I will own a PRS guitar.

John Mayer and Carlos... Thanks guys 👍

That's why my main guitars for doing anything that counts are PRS guitars. You aren't worrying about the guitar...I didn't even realize that..I was always tuning that G on the gibsons...and afraid to touch the trem too hard on the strat. On my PRS guitars..I just play the music.

For some reason I think the show wouldn’t be what it would be without that intro and that beautiful reverby/beachy song lol

I love my prs custom 24 thanks Paul for building the best guitars ever

can you imagine the fun and smiles on the Lord's face when he leads certain individuals to their calling. Carlos as a boy hearing the guitar pounding out ... typical example. What a gift of talent God gave Carlos and he believes in Jesus to. well done Carlos .

I really want one of these guitars.

25% of my guitar collection are PRS for a reason. 75% of my playtime is spent on them. You can tell Paul cares about the guitars I have on the wall as much as he does the ones on his.

Paul Reed Smith is a pretty special guy to! I might need to add a prs to tge collection

💜💜💜

That was one mighty fine interview folks. Hey man I got a 2001 prs se Santana ( korean built ✌🏾) and it is a fine playing instrument that I could afford at the time, ( and it came with a gig bag ✌🏾 ) but now I'm thinking about modding the guitar with some more recent pups and a tail piece / bridge from prs , any suggestions for me.

I love PRS guitars and I have a few of them, my fav is a Santana III made in USA

Carlos plays to the person standing in the very last row... and shakes them to their core. Easier said than done

Carlos isn’t kidding about PRS’s showing up in tune. I worked at Guitar Center for over a year and 98% percent of their guitars would should up in perfect tune. Including the SE range. Only guitar company that was remotely true for.

I want a PRS so bad

Gotta find a way to afford a prs now...Carlos is right. What legends, respect 🖖🏽

well put paul. Makes me wonder what level jimmy would have got to on guitar if he were still here. His legacy is unparalleled considering the time he did it

After hearing Carlos hum Soul Sacrifice, I had to go back and watch the video from Woodstock!

*Santana* the #1 of our time ...

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

The results from the commercial interests that PRS shares with Santana .

Wonderful privilege to hear you both. I have 2 PRS SE, Paul's an 245 I play and learn and enjoy

I do the same thing. I call up my musician friends on a daily basis. The only difference is we are all tired, frustrated, out of work and broke. Hehehehe.

Paul is a fucking legend

AMEN Mr. Carlos! Jesus Jesus Jesus!

I gotta be honest, i worked as a guitar tech at guitar center for a while, the ONLY guitars that we never needed to set up were PRS, im not endorsed by PRS (i play Kiesel mainly) so this is an honest fact, brilliant guitars.

I still play my yahama SBG because of him !!!!!!!

Carlos brags, "Everytime Paul send me a guitar, it arrives in tune!" But does it also arrive in a hardshell case???

My live rig is either a SSky or a CU 24 into a King Snake, No 175 which CS handsigned……lucky me…..

Wisdom.

Miles🙌
