DC 245s. Short scales rock.

Try being a Patriots fan living between Pittsburgh and Philly...or anywhere but New England for that matter.

And I thought we were friends.

I'm with Steve on this one!

So what is it about the short scales that rock so much? What could i expect on a SC245 vs a regular 250?

A bit less string tension for the same tuning - you might notice it as easier bends.

A bit more ballsy, old bluesy. I don’t know why, but it sounds like that to me.

I concur, fine sir!

Yep! I’d say a bit ‘warmer’ with more lower/mids (ballsy) versus the classic 25” scale PRS.

While I prefer short scale, I still love the 25” scale for variety.
