PRS SE guitars are shockingly good.

@ScottDreyfus 6 ай бұрын

They really are the best you can buy for the money. They just come outta the box ready to tune and go.

@user-ug8nc9wu3x 6 ай бұрын

How much better have they become? When they came out with the Tremonti signatures like 20 years ago they were most useful as boat oars. Even Fender had better guitars at that price point. What's changed?

@MFKitten 6 ай бұрын

@@user-ug8nc9wu3x Basically everything has changed since then. Nowadays Squiers are absolutely killer guitars, Ibanez have somehow become the new boat oars, LTD and PRS SE guitars are absolutely killer. PRS SE especially are super tight and smooth. Mine came in tune in the box, and played like butter.

Not a single PRs se for half the money needed shit accept tune it and play. I do t know where you get your info from but I do t have a fucking Time Machine and every guitar I’ve owned from PRs has come post 2017 from pt Cort I can’t speak to older models but people seem to love them and swear the Korean wmi were even better than these. You can go to my local gc and all the squire necks are fine also from cort and the ensinata and corona guitars are shit. Fret sprout for days. I’m in Ga by the way so humidity is perfect and we barely have winter . If you’re just trolling I get it, it’s the internet but your statement couldn’t be farther than the truth. Just search the forums and look at how many returns fender gets compared to prs. PRs has the lowest return rate by far of the big oems and fender is actually worse than Gibson in returns and Gibson out sells them almost 2 to 1

@fredjaeger690 2 ай бұрын

10 inch radius is pretty typical for prs. Gibsons are more flat at 12 inches. Nice review. These pups coil tap, meaning that they use some of the winds from the other coil to help balance output between the single and double coil tones. A coil split will only use one coil or both coils which results in a noticeable drop in output in the single coil tones. I recently purchased the PRSSE swamp bash special and the PRSDGT. Between the two of them I have really no need for a Strat or Les Paul anymore. They are outstanding instruments for build and for tone. They also come in less than half the costof the guitars they’re replacing. The swamp special is so good at emulating both the telecaster and the Stratocaster that it’s replacing both of those guitars.

The standard version of this guitar has real binding with vintage cherry on all surfaces. Snagged a 7lb. 12oz. one from Sweetwater for $629. Should be a great comparison when you do it. I've already swapped in Gotoh tuners and all new electronics except the pickups obviously. 50's wiring with orangedrop tone caps. The knobs are also upgraded to fit the CTS pots. Things straight up nasty now. Great bang for the buck. I've got $975 total into it with Schaller straplocks and Gator TSA chainsaw case.

I've got one that I bought new in 2000. Back then they were doing the Singlecuts more in the PRS way than the Gibson way. For example, they had wraparound bridges (I had an '00 and an' 03, both Cores) and they had the different controls layout (vols on top, tones on bottom) which was very confusing when you're used to Les Pauls and the scale-length was 25" and obviously 24.5" on the 245. The '03 was a black 245. Sold it (too dark sounding), but still have the 2000 quilt-top. I'd be interested in trying the newer ones that are more Gibson-like, but I'm nicely settled into my Les Pauls.

PRS when they made the McCarty models didnt just try to copy LP's they corrected all the mistakes Gibson has made for 7+ decades. Neck angle to bridge, string angle coming out of nut to tuners, the headstock angle being much straighter than on a lp, which all that makes far better tuning stability
