    Why did PRS Guitars disappear from the rock/metal scene?

    So it's that simple? I can for sure see the angle, even if it's odd from a "nobody's pespective". Sure it would be hard to imagine Fender dangling a fat check infront of you saying you have to play Strats if you accept it, when in reality you can't stand the guitar.

    Why did PRS Guitars disappear from the rock/metal scene?

    For sure. But if you take a look at some music videos from the modern metal and rock scene, you can rarley spot a PRS.

    Why did PRS Guitars disappear from the rock/metal scene?

    I just find it weird that some of these guys used to play PRS's for years and suddenly switch to another brand. Chad Kroeger, Benjamin Burnley, Brad Delson, Jim Root, I can for sure make the list longer if I put some thought into it. The question is still, why? If PRS guitars are that versatile...

    Why did PRS Guitars disappear from the rock/metal scene?

    In the late 90s, early 2000s, PRS guitars were the essential tool in the alternative rock & Nu-Metal scene. Hooked up to Mesa Dual/Triple R's for that modern, loud and crunchy tone. But all of a sudden most of these artists stopped using them, and you rarely see a PRS guitar in the same spectrum...

    Tjenare! I've actually tried that, but that resultated in less tension on the string, which was the main reason why I choose a 0.59 (they didn't have a 0.60 in stock) instead of the 0.54, because it lacked the right tension I wanted. So I don't know =/ What effect will that have if I ever...

    String too thick for my trem bridge

    Hi there, So I recently had a guitar tech to re-string my guitar with some heavier gauge, from 0.9s to 0.11-0.59. He did all the main adjustments; nut, truss rod, intonation etc. But once I got home I noticed that the thick E string, (or the Drop C string in this case) doesn't really fit in the...

    My guitar won't set after adjustments with thicker strings

    That could definitely be some of the issue, I live in Sweden and summer is coming in hot as we speak, some days are crazy warm while other it drops heavily. Thanks for the reply! I took some pictures, if you need any angle or detail specifically, please let me know. As you can probably see...

    My guitar won't set after adjustments with thicker strings

    Hi all, This is my first post on this forum so I apologize If I've put this thread in the wrong category. --- So, I have this Dave Navarro SE Custom 24 which came with .09s as usual. Since I'm more into the "heavier" playing style of music I decided to put .011s on there with a .59 as the low...
