The S2 McCarty arrived!

[Telecastermds]

Wow ....what a step up from the SE I have and SE's I had before.

Super lightweight considering the construction. Lake Blue finish is killer. Mine has the optional locking tuners. The action, neck and feel are outstanding. I do wish the birds were pearloid and not plain. The abalone ones on my SE HBII really pop. Of course that guitar is blinged out.


I'm going to have to justify an S2 Custom 22 someday....lol

 

[Telecastermds]

Oh, the strap buttons don’t seem tall enough for my Levy leather strap. Any ideas?

Enjoy OP!! Sweet...I was just playing my S2 standard 22...S2s are the best deal in the market for a HB equipped guitar...used they're a steal!!

Strap Locks or extra felt

Congrats!!

Love S2 McCartys, they're more Core than SE and sustain forever. But they are gateway drugs to Cores.

Fantastic!

Congratulations, your PRS family is beautiful.

I couldn't agree more. The s2 is a very noticeable step up. Played some today and it wasn't a fair fight between the lines in about every way.

Look into to the S2 standard. Killer guitar and where I'd start my PRS journey today.

I'm a big fan of the seHb2 as well. IMHO one of the best se out there. Would be real interested in a S2 HB if they made such a thing.

Congratulations, that's quite a pair!

For the strap button, as bowtiefanatc said, I've had good results putting an extra felt washer or two underneath.

Buy the felt washers to go under the strap buttons. Cheap and easy fix.
