    NF3 Alert!

    I have a 2012 (according to the hang tag), and same thing...serial number is faded badly. Cherry red w/rosewood board. I love it! I've got to figure out why it keeps popping the D string though. Maybe I should change the strings more often.

    Anyone switch to SS Amps over the years??

    I've got an old GK Backline 100 combo that I"ve been using for almost 30 years. It's used mostly at practice spaces now. But I have gigged with it on occasion. I'll most likely never get rid of it. For gigging I swap between my Badger 30 tube amp, or my Yamaha THR100 DH; which being a digital...

    How many of your PRS’ have you modified?

    I put DMZ 36 anniversary's in my core Mira. But then a couple of years ago went back to the stock pickups. That's it. My McCarty P90 and NF3 are stock

    Narrowfield versus Narrowfield 57/08?

    Oh my gosh, I love my NF3! I've had it for several years now. I remember seeing the guitar player that was with Pat Travers back after Pat Thrall...Jerry something? He played one some years back. I took a chance and ended up buying a demo online having never played one before. Just happens I...

    Custom 50 combo speaker

    Ok, so I spoke with Matt King in customer service. He's sending me a new speaker. Awesome customer service!

    Forbidden!

    Hang in there, and good luck Les. I don't like moving my Custom 50 combo either. I'd like to have a head shell built for it.

    Custom 50 combo speaker

    I found the rattle...isolated it down to the cone dust cap on the speaker. Where it's glued to the speaker...there's about an inch long area where it's come unglued and vibrates.

    Custom 50 combo speaker

    I was mistaken, mine has a G12 Classic Lead 80, not a 70/80; which has developed a rattle. I do not play this amp loud.

    Custom 50 EQ

    I do really like my C50. I picked it up used, in mint condition. Though I'm still playing with it...getting it dialed in. A couple of things I really want to do is one, get a head shell made for it. As a combo, it's quite heavy. I've got a couple of 1X12 cabs to try with it, and a few speaker...

    Custom 50 EQ

    Thanks LSchefman, I know the eq is quite powerful on the C50, wasn't sure how it went about it.

    Custom 50 EQ

    Hey guys, Would the gain structure/eq controls on this amp be considered "casgading"? If I want to emphasize upper mids, would I use less mid eq and more treble or presence, or more mids control?

    My New PRS NF3 - Love it

    I picked up a used one (cherry red) a couple of years ago...without playing it first. I love it! One of my favorites for sure. The neck felt good to me immediately, and I really like the Narrowfields.

    Tube roll in Custom 50

    I'd like to hear Doug's take as well. Been swapping my PI a little. Right now I have a Sovtek 5751in mine...low noise but not balanced (triode 1 95, 2 is 98). Have tried a Gold lion 12ax7 in there as well, that I had in the pre amp of another amp. It's not balanced either, just high gain. Stock...

    Vela owners, does the neck pickup give you Teleish tones?

    I've been wanting a Vela for a while now...just can't afford it unless I sell something else. Not gonna sell my McSoapy, not gonna sell my NF3. It would have to be my Mira. I may regret that. The problem I have with the Mira though is that the neck "feels" so long. I know it's just the way it...

    Custom 50 combo speaker

    Anyone know what speaker they have in their H or Custom 50 combo? No one?
