    Need Help Selecting a PRS

    Only have a 408 and a McCarty so that's all I could recommend both sweet guitars.

    Wood Library tops -Expert opinion needed!

    I guess the real question is how much do you trust this shop?

    Pickup advice

    Sorry I can't point you in the right direction but personally after years of swapping pickups I've learned to leave well enough alone.

    S2 Singlecut Semi-Hollow vs Singlecut Solidbody

    Don't own the solid but I have the semi no real feedback issues but I love the feel of air blasting out the f hole when you crank up the amp.

    OK-Gloves OFF-It's all about the TOPS-Pics Please

    I have a 2004 McCarty which has what I would like to call a disappearing top. If you look at it one way the treble side looks like there is no flame and its a lighter color, same with the bass side. If you look at it just right you can see all the flame on both sides with no lighter color. It's...

    Stock pickups on Core guitars

    All my guitars have stock pickups 3 PRS 6 assorted they will stay that way. Nothing against swapping pickups I've done it in the past. Had 26 guitars down to 9 if I want a different sound I'll play a different guitar. Have a 408, McCarty with a Rosewood neck, S2 Singlecut Semi Hollow, G&L...

    Why the hatred?

    I recently did the same for the same reason traded 20 for 4. First was a 408 second was a S2 Singlecut Semi Hollow third was a 2004 McCarty with a Rosewood neck Fourth is a Eastman SB57/N-BK. Having a bunch of guitars in cases in your basement is doing them and you no good. But I have to...

    NGD: PRS SE Custom 24 Zebrawood - Not Very Happy :(

    Agreed I bought a Yamaha Revstar from them the high E was dead from the 12th fret up. There's no way anyone did an inspection on that guitar. Good thing I know a little about guitars I fixed it myself, but if I was a beginner or didn't know how to fix it I would have had to send it back not what...

Had a Gibson All American didn't like the single coil pickups but I couldn't bring myself to enlarge the cavities for a...

    Why the hatred?

    I bought a PRS SE Santana when they first came out and did not like it. For one it didn't look like a Santana guitar second I really didn't like the sound of the pickups, but it played well. First impressions are a huge factor in brand loyalty. Fast forward to late 2018 got a 408 on trade and...

    S2 SINGLECUT SEMI HOLLOW

    That's what I thought by knocking on it plus the weight it seems too heavy to be hollow on both sides. Not that it's heavy that's one reason I got it. It was a choice between that and a 2004 McCarty with a Rosewood neck really nice but heavy plus I wanted a single cut already have a 408.

    S2 SINGLECUT SEMI HOLLOW

    I think that's how this is too.

    S2 SINGLECUT SEMI HOLLOW

    Does anyone know if these are hollow on the lower side not just where the f hole is ?
