Thank you

Long question here: I have a fender supersonic 22 with a weber chicago speaker. It sounds great and is super loud indoors. Outdoors with only vocals mic'd, the amp couldn't keep up with the drummer and bass running a stack. I ran a 112 extension cab with another 8 ohm weber chicago. Result was...

Excellent!

Have any of you use a super mild polish to even out the shine on a satin finish? If so, can you post a pic?

When shopping for this guitar, I noticed a couple older satin PRS guitars that had worn through the finish where the player had seemingly picked into the wood near the high e string, or they had long sharp fingernails like a classical guitarist would. Now that my barely used CE24 is here and...

Thank you again. The prs 10% and free shipping sealed the deal for me.

Thank you all for being so helpful and welcoming. Can you recommend a good tight fitting case for my ce24? The gig bag knocks it out of tune and I'll need to take my guitar in and out several times a day. Mike

Are there any signs of damage from the cold I should look for before my window to return is closed?

My brand new (to me) 2016 CE24 arrived today. It is incredible! The body and neck resonates in my hands more than I expected. Compared to my American strat, I hear the mahogany acoustically. Plugged in, this is night and day different from my Stratocaster. I took pics to share with you, but...

Here is a much better answer from another thread: The CE line from PRS is a bit of a hybrid... it is manufactured in the US factory (as opposed to the Korean factory, where the SE line is made). It's hand made like the core line. The body is the same mahogany with maple top. But the carve isn't...

Same pickups, but the volume and tone wiring is same as s2... from what I've read and been told by local dealer

Thank you. I think I read somewhere that it has a .180 basic bleeder cap on a 500k volume pot with no resistor. Does anyone know what the tone pot has on it for cap value and quality?

Thank you, bodia! I love your Nigel pic. I hadn't watched the fourth one with the singer yet. That one had less of the sizzle. The others exhibit what I'm asking. The 85/15s have such extended highs that perhaps any amount of gain adds the sizzle I'm hearing.

First post here. I mean no offense if this is a touchy subject. Why do literally all of the prs ce24 demos/reviews on youtube go from sparkly clean to sizzly gain? Is there no warm, throaty, SRV, Hendrixy middle ground with prs? Thank you, Mike
