    Poor Produced 2019 SE's ?

    I understand and agree that the SE models are a great value, but I would definitely be one of those discerning people who would send it back for another, hoping for the birds to be showing up correctly on the fretboard. $1000 is an awesome price for the Paul's guitar, but approaches S2 territory...

    SE Mods

    Picked up an ebony truss rod cover with Private Stock Eagle inlay from Ebay, I installed it on my 2018 SE 245.

    How did you discover PRSi?

    I heard about PRS back in the late 1980s reading both Guitar World and Guitar For The Practicing Musician magazines. They were too expensive for me then as I was in my late teens at the time. I remember Ted Nugent being one of the guitarists I first saw use PRS. I also remember George Lynch used...

    New vs used PRS guitars

    My first 2 PRSi were new: 2016 S2 Standard 24 Satin (McCarty burst) and 2018 SE 245. My recent purchase was a 2001 McCarty Standard off reverb for a great negotiated price. I look for new or used.

    What are you playing or practicing right now?

    I'm learning 'The Loner' cover by Gary Moore. The 1987 Live in Stockholm version of 'The Loner' by Gary is what moved me to try and learn the song. It's full of emotion and driven by his tasteful technique.

    March 1989 Guitar Player: Danny Gatton

    Great Tele player! I read about Danny in 'Guitar For The Practicing Musician' magazine back in the 1980s.

    Going to DIGF 2019?

    I wish I lived closer to Texas. I live in Atlanta, Georgia. That roster of guests is awesome. I'd especially love to see Eric Gales, Andy Timmons, Johnny Hiland and Greg Koch!

    Anyone experience PRS \Metal/ Treble Bridge pickup?

    Sorry for the delay with my update. I received the pickup Thursday last week and installed it. My first impression is that the pickup has a full, fat, tight sound with great note clarity. I tweaked the pickup height enough that it has a great punch and excellent detail to notes when played with...

    Anyone experience PRS \Metal/ Treble Bridge pickup?

    First of all, I would like to say hello to everyone in this forum. I'm a new forum member and this is my first post. I recently purchased a new 2018 SE 245 and although I enjoy the stock neck pickup, I felt the need for a hotter, bigger sounding bridge pickup for this guitar. I tried a Seymour...
