    How To Post Photos - 2024 and Beyond Edition

    Just posted one using the app, but it links straight to my imagur account. Deleted it. I’m let say mature in experience at this life thing, wanting this life thing to be less troublesome at this point, and not so trusting. But I still enjoy my PRS guitars.

    How To Post Photos - 2024 and Beyond Edition

    Just tried using imagur. Why does it not work as the first post describes? I can’t figure it out. Even one lowly guitar forum has an upload feature where they might have 10 participating members that I visit. Has to be an easier way. I even downloaded the imagur app. Too much crap attached to...

    SE DGT Appalling Fretwork

    Sorry you received such a disappointing guitar. I was all excited to play one as well months ago. Found a gold top at a local shop and was highly dissatisfied as well with the fret work. It clicked all that I was looking for, but my SE Korea models blew it away. Most others experiences were...

    Roast me all you want but I'll say it: SE is better than S2.

    I have owned the SE and S2 models. The SE’s I have owned had better looking tops, more durable finishes, and were less expensive. My Korean made SE’s needed less fret work than the Indonesian made models. On to the S2’s. They feel more comfortable to play and just play better. I like the...

    My S2 standard 22 is getting dinged up gigging ughh

    I have a couple S2’s that are not satin, and they do chip if you look at them funny. The finish is extremely brittle. Also one has started delaminating at the fretboard. The body does not dent, but the coating chips. Supposedly the thickness or lack of, contributes to the better sound quality...

    Paul's TCI "S" pickups vs DGT "S" pickups

    Just put your Duncan’s in. Just bought a LP style guitar with them because I don’t care for the thick neck profile PRS offers in their single-cut thicker bodied guitars. They sound nice. Will be a major improvement over the #7s pickups. I have and S2 that came with the #7s, and replaced them...

    NGD - Standard 22

    I have the exact same guitar. Great guitars and it does not have those extra 2 frets I can’t deal with. Take a peek under the pick guard. Mine is a routed for a Strat middle pickup. Had a pick guard made and installed a 5 way with the middle pickup, but having issues wiring it up. Middle pickup...

    NGD 2020 S2 Custom 22

    It’s 22 frets, and does not have wing tuners. Two up on most. :)

    NGD - 1995 CE22 in Black Sunburst with Bird Inlays!

    And it does not have 24 frets. But those wing tuners. Some love them. Im in the other camp. Otherwise, I am still jealous.

    Very nice. And someone is jealous on the other side of this cell phone I am typing on .

    Locking Tuners for PRS McCarty 594 SE

    They are hot because the tuners that come on the SE 594 are dismal and best. I have bought guitars that were $150 and have better tuners. It’s a shame. Not typical of PRS. Going to be replacing them as soon as I figure out what I am putting in their place.

    SE McCarty Body Thickness?

    I just received my SE 594. Was afraid I would not like the neck carve, but I was very mistaken. I bought the singlecut and happy I did. Like the body thickness. I thought my 245 played well, but this has an edge on it. Very nice top on it. It’s my new avatar But the tuners suck. Worst tuners...

    SE McCarty Body Thickness?

    Well zero response. Was deciding between the SC and DC. Think I and going with the full thickness DC.
