    NGD SE Frederik Akesson

    Yeah its a great guitar. The second day I had I was wait a minute yes this guitar has it going on. Was always a fan of Opeth, which is actually a reason to leave the guitar where it is. But it's cool. At least it doesn't have the logo on it. And specs wise, I always found this to be the SE...

    NGD - Something Thick

    Never knew PRS made these kind of archtops. It looks like the ultimate guitar you can't put down. I can just see and hear such an instrument singing along with an amp.

    NGD SE Frederik Akesson

    My first PRS. Been a couple of years since I started considering a PRS (SE) with a particular interest in this one. But them being discontinued made me want to not chase it obsessively. So now seems to have been the right time. And it's what I hoped it would be, the acoustic response, the...

    Studs that will also fit Tone Pros wraparound (SE Akesson)

    Great point that life is possible without that wrench haha. But yeah I'd still quite enjoy being able to adjust the height without taking the strings off, even if I'd ever do it a couple of times in my lifetime. Or knowing that I have studs of which the height is quite easily adjustable if I...

    Studs that will also fit Tone Pros wraparound (SE Akesson)

    So I just got a second hand PRS SE Akesson sig shipped. Looks like this is going to be wonderful guitar. However the wrench to adjust the bridge height is missing. And its hard to find apparently. Warwick Germany actually sells it (im in the EU) for €2 but then charges €17 for shipping .... Sent...

    Confused about fret height of SE

    I'm feeling like the thread is derailing a little bit. I'll try boil it down to even simpler question: Is it me or is the SE standard 24 a guitar that has more jumbo-like frets than most SE's? If yes, I'm dying to know if a SE custom 22 from 2008 also has those very tall frets or if a 2016 SE...

    Confused about fret height of SE

    True, but above my budget a little too modern metal-ish. The Akesson has more of a traditional guitar vibe that I dig. Call me conservative. An Allender SE would do the job technically as well but the looks aren't my thing either. It is, isn't it :) Another way to ask my question is perhaps...

    Confused about fret height of SE

    I tried a PRS SE Santana the other day in a store. They were nice but apparently I want an SE with even higher frets. I figured I was going to have to look for a signature model that happens to have jumbo frets (like the Akesson), only to find the SE Standard 24 actually have nice and tall...

    Old second hand PRS SE or 2016 PRS SE or Akesson signature

    I prefer a doublecut unless it's an Akesson. As for the Zach Myers the guitar itself probably amazing guitar. The thing is everything else about the Zach Myers guitars I find off-putting. I realise it's kind of silly since I don't have to like the music or the dude it's irrelevant, but I don't...

    Introduce yourself!

    Yes I know, Scott Grove is kindof a special case and definitely not everything he says needs to be taken at face value haha. I'm inclined to get a custom 22 and found this old model for €250 second hand. Also made a different thread about what I want more specifically

    Old second hand PRS SE or 2016 PRS SE or Akesson signature

    I'm in the market for my first PRS SE I'd love to find a SE Frederik Akesson model from a Euro store somewhere (I'm in Belgium) but they seem to be out of stock everywhere since they are discontinued. Other than that, there is a PRS SE Custom 22 tremolo gray black available on a belgian...
