Tried a set of SD Alnico II pickups, and didn’t care for the sound compared to the stock 85/15 S. Putting the stock 85/15 S pickups back in, but wanted to add covers, both for looks and for the subtle sound difference the covers add, slightly less edgy, just a bit smoother sound. While changing...
Hello! I just recently purchased a mt15 amp and I’m deciding on what I want to run for a cabinet setup. Upon inspection of the amp I saw the 2 parallel 8 ohm speaker jacks. I was just wondering if I run 2x16 ohm cabs in the parallel would they be running at full or would I want to run 2x8 ohm...
Hey guys! i am a new owner of a PRS SE Mira. Sadly the guitar arrived with a faulty selector switch. Not a big deal, im replacing all the electronics with high quality parts. My question is, I play a lot of punk rock and blues. I find the pickups a little muddy, esspecially the neck pickup. On...
Hey all, just wanted to drop a link to a great deal on Reverb! These don't come around often, & here's a gorgeous example of workmanship... grab one for Christmas. Said he'd take $2900
Custom 24 Floyd Fire Red
Greetings all PRS’ers,
I don’t know if it’s luck of the draw or what…but I ordered a SE Swamp Ash (Iris Blue) Tuesday of last week from zZounds and actually received the guitar this past Saturday. I decided I’m keeping this specific guitar because I don’t want to get into a cycle of...
A very warm 'hello' to everyone here. My name is Jim, aged 63 and I live on the Isle of Wight, a small Island off of the south coast of England, with my wife and soul mate Ruby. I have been playing guitar for more years than I care to remember, getting on for 50 years now. I have played in bands...
A little ironic to post this right after my 'investment' video, since this is not an investment at all. Or maybe it could be ;) ;)
No, in all seriousness, I specced it out around April May 2021 after a lot of trepidation and going back and forth on many spec choices.
The initial estimate was...
Hello everyone,
New future owner here, just bought myself a core SS Frost 2 months ago. Had a schedule stock arrival for the 1st of august but it got a 2 month delay.
Bought mine on thomann, is it normal to have such delays from prs factory?
Been on the lookout for a Modern Metal machine, and I happened across this beauty on Reverb. Has everything I need along with some great versatility when I need it.
It's unfortunate I've not heard much about the \m/ Metal pickups, what's your personal experience with them? This will be my first...
Hey guys! There is a PRS Special Semi Hollow I am interested in, but the previous owner has removed the Narrowfield. I can’t find them anywhere. Does anyone know where to get one aftermarket, if PRS will reinstall one, etc? I’d like to buy the guitar but I want to return it to stock. Thanks!
I was looking for a way to mount the Phase III tuners on my SE SS without seeing the footprint from the previous vintage tuners. I came across these little mounting plates from Graph Tech. They are mount plates meant for the GT Ratio Tuners but worked well with the Phase III tuners. The only...
Hi everyone
I'm writting from Spain. I have 2 PRS SS, one from 2018 in Horizon Red with rosewood fretboard. Other from 2021 Moc Sand Satin with maple fretboard.
In my opinion with the two guitars, I like more the rosewood. In terms os sound is almost the same, but little better for me the...
Hi everyone! i just wondered... How do you deal with dents and scratches on your expensive guitars? The other day, somebody told me about the "PRS syndrome": when you own such an expensive (not my case, i only have a SE custom) and beautiful guitar, you just simply don´t wanna even touch it...
Gang,
I have a rare opportunity to buy a Singlecut Hollowbody I Employee guitar. Trying to a gauge on the value, at the price I'm being offered. Assuming the employee didn't make outrageous differences (e.g. wood type, and I can't tell from the pictures), what kind of price or premium should...
Hi all. I play a Kestrel SE bass at my church and the worship leader has told me he has to turn me up on the board. The other bass player I rotate weekends with plays a Fender Blacktop bass but it doesn’t have active pickups. I’m trying to get help on what I could possibly do to maybe give my...
After spending sometime playing my core custom 22, I found its neck profile (wide fat) to be the best for my hands and needs. Having also a S2 Custom 22 with a pattern regular neck, which is a bit thiner than the core model but round and big enough for my liking, I decided to pull the trigger...
Hello,
Forgive me if it’s been asked before, but was hoping some people could weigh in on their opinions of the older McCarty 594s vs the post-2020 ones with the updates / changes. I’m aware the main differences are nitro finish, TCI Pickups, tuners, and maybe the bridge. Do you think a used...
Hi everyone,
I have a PRS SE Custom 24 I want to upgrade however I walk into some problems and I hope you can help me.
I have this US electronics set now in my guitar and will keep on using the PRS 85/15S picksups I already have. These pickups have a black, red, green and white wire (the green...
