After playing this guitar for a week, I've come to some new conclusions. I also upgraded my microphone so from now on the quality of these reviews will be much better. Look at us, growing together! Thanks so much for coming along with me on this journey. Please like and subscribe if you enjoy what's going on here. #electricguitar #prsguitar #PRS #fypage #fypviral #fyp

I got mine the day of the release. Not problem with the pots on mine!

@@paulmiller657 it definitely could be an isolated issue but it seems to be that with any “budget” range guitar electronics are always the weak point or the savings for the company selling it. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy your NF3! Stay tuned.

Thanks for the update! I just got mine yesterday. I’d suggest adding short cuts of the guitar playing into the review to make it more engaging

Thanks for watching! I’ve considered switching up the format a bit since upgrading my microphone and to keep things fresh. Stay tuned for more.

I bought one after watching your first video. I agree that the volume pot isn't great. Mechanically, it works okay, but below 8 or so it seems useless. I think it needs a treble bleed circuit to make it as useable as possible. The taper of the tone pot also seems to have three settings - all on, a slight roll off of highs, and a weird sound at zero. That could be improved too. The tone control on my S2 Mira is the best ever, so they know how to make one work extremely well. That said, mine plays extremely well and is very comfortable and resonant. The strings have very low tension, almost like a top-loaded tele. And I found that the pickups are very useable and don't feel like traditional humbuckers (which is what I wanted). The neck pickup is shockingly good. Not overly bassy, which was what I feared.

I love to hear it man! There are some definite things that could be improved but overall it is a great guitar. Thanks for tuning in and subscribe for more!

I’ve had two PRS’s over the years and they both had volume pot issues. The last one was a Post COVID SE Custom 24 and the pot went out. It was always on. Seems to be a real issue.

I got one and played it over the weekend. I’ve played Silver Sky guitars for quite a while. The NF3 sounds very different from the Silver Sky. To my ears, the pickups on the NF3 don’t sound like S style single coil pickups. They should a bit like a cross between a P90 and a mini humbucker.

Which color did you go with? To me it still retains some of the character of the single coil sound but it is different. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more!

If you could change one thing about it, what would it be? I’m considering buying one, but it doesn’t seem like the reviewers have had much of an emotional response/connection to it. They comment on build quality and neck feel but seem neutral on the pickups.

@Sick_Strings01 10 күн бұрын

For me it would be the neck as I prefer the Silver Sky SE neck. The great thing is that I could do that if I really wanted to as it attaches identically as the Silver Sky SE. From my experience with the SE line, when people refer to not having an “emotional connection” to them, it’s that the pickups seemed lifeless or clinical no mojo no soul. In the past I would say that is true but the last few years that has changed. I’ll be doing a comparison video of PRS SE guitars soon! Thanks for watching and subscribe!

Have you compared it to a Fiore? Great video, thanks.

Not yet! That’s a guitar I’d like to get my hands on for sure.

Great advice. Make adjustments, not purchases.

It’s hard not to get GAS! I would also suggest people just practice more on the instrument the already have instead of buying something new. Thanks for watching.
