I am the owner of thirteen PRS guitars at the moment, having more than sixty guitars which I use in the studio, live concerts and lessons. Among them there are some fine Gibson Les Pauls and archtops, some Heritage (mostly archtops) few Fender tele and strats, Eastmans, Gretsches, D' Angelico's...

I am researching the history, travels and general info on my Bourgeois PRS Prototype #11 (of 11 made from what i have read recently). It was acquired at the beginning of the year from a previous owner that had not opened the case since 2012. Until Saturday all i knew about it was that it was a...

The S2 McCarty 594 Thinline is a stroke of genius! I hope PRS sells a ton of them! I was thinking about getting a used custom shop SG when I found the Thinline as an alternative. At 1/2 the price for a gorgeous, great-sounding, well-made, well-balanced, well-set up guitar, it's a no-brainer...

So I've managed to snag myself a rather nice looking Cu24 recently that's been subject to a fair bit of use over the years. Although it needs a bit of work, I've managed to get it for a killer price so I'm really looking forward to getting it usable again - it's also a "birth-year" guitar for me...

Hey yall, My dad is giving me a PRS upon my graduation of college and I've been curious on what exact model I have? I know the guitar was made in 1986, (SN# 6 1925) and might be a Custom 24. I looked at "standard" Custom 24's but I didn't see any with more than 2 knobs and 1 switch. I know that...

Hi Guys, One of the nice Brass posted Klusons on my Starla has let go. It’s starting to grind. Some of the others are starting to feel loose too. It’s 10 years old now, used a lot. What’s more is that the bigsby has always made the guitar body heavy, like a Les Paul. Heavier tuners would...

This has most likely been discussed a thousand times in forums. So, I apologize in advance for any repetition! I’m looking to install vintage style tuners (Like what are some SC245, McCarty, new SE Zach Myers models) on my SE245. I’m at a loss. I’ve asked several “experts” and they tell me to...

Hi, I have a beautiful 1990 PRS Studio 24 that need a bit of TLC. I has had some rewiring done in the past that I am sure is not 'standard'. I would like to bring it back to factory is I could. Does anyone have a full wiring diagram for this model (2 single coils, 1 hum-bucker, vol, tone and 5...

Greetings Everybody! I got an s2 semi-hollow Mira in vintage cherry coming next week straight from the factory (ahhhhhh) and I really want it to have a trapeze tailpiece to make it even more resonant and give it that vintage look I adore so bad. I got some handy information so far: It only...

Hi everybody! I am one of the co hosts of the Keep Calm and Rock On Experience podcast. We had the pleasure of sitting down with Paul for an in person interview. We had a great time and thank him very much for spending time with us. We covered a lot, from his views in vintage guitars and...
