I didn't like the look of them until I bought a guitar that had them. It didn't take long to not even notice them.

I love the way it looks, but I was a bit surprised at how much I liked the sound when I played it. A SC is way outside my normal wheelhouse so I don't even know why I picked it up. I ended up comparing it to a couple of other SC guitars and this one just had it. I have the same pickups in a...

Yep. Went over to LaCrosse looking for something else and it came home with me. This might be the first PRS I've ever purchased that has absolutely nothing written in either pickup cavity. No stickers or anything else either. Just what appears to be grey shielding paint

A little over 8.5lbs. Not bad for a SC but much heavier than I prefer. I'm sure I'll get used to it.

I tried out the coil taps and I'll admit they worked a lot better than I expected. Great for some clean tones with the volume knobs turned down.

So one thing I'm finding very interesting about this guitar is the extended highs and lows. It has way more low end than any guitar I own but has this clarity on the top end as well. Not boomy or harsh but there a lot of frequencies coming out out amplified. It just sounds big for the lack of...

I don't have many NGD posts anymore because I've been happy with what I already have. In addition, I'm not really a SC fan so this was an unexpected addition. I just happened to pull it off the wall at my local shop and it sounded so good unplugged that I had to give it a full demo. The...

This is one of those guitars that sounded better on paper to me than my actual experience with it. I didn't love the satin finish or the pickups in the end. The other issue with the only one I had was the 10lbs of shoulder crushing weight. Even with that, I still think it might be worth it to...

That's a nice looking guitar but it seems priced on the high side. Either way, Here's my 99 with BRW neck. One of my favorites.

It's been a year so I feel like it's time to revive this thread once again. I don't remember what number mine is out of the 250

Brand bashing happens on every guitar forum I've ever been on, including here. I do my best not to get in arguments online when I'm not going to change anyone's mind anyway. If someone thinks every PRS is sterile with a pretty top, every Gibson has QC issues, or every Fender is an overpriced...

The "screws of torture" made me laugh because it's so true. I can't tell you how much blood has been spilled on my old Fender bridges. My #1 Fender is a 61 Esquire and I upgraded to a Callaham bridge and saddles in part to stop the blood letting. Most of my guitars are vintage or vintage...

I prefer 22 (or 21) fret necks but still play CU24s. It always amazes me how much different the feel is going between them.

I have the same cab and speaker in a slightly different color.

You're playing that amp through one of the biggest sounding 1-12 cabs I've come across. Nice
