I was able to play a Santana, an older (90s?) Cu22 artist pack and a McCarty HB1 side by side today. Well, I can no longer say PRS does not make big necks! The Santanas was big. Much bigger feeling than the other 2 which had WFs, but I liked the feel and shape of the WFs more. I was hoping to really dig the Santana, but its a 24 fretter, and I just cant adjust to the thinner sound on the neck pup. The CU 22 sounded way bigger on the neck. As a matter of fact, the CU 22 sounded way bigger on the neck than the McCarty HB1 as well. Not sure if they all came this way, (HB1s) but it had a maple top and Mahogany backs and sides from what I could tell. The CU 22s still blow me away in how huge they sound on the neck pups, and still remain my favorite PRSs.........One point..... I can now understand what an improvement the V12 is over the old poly finishes. This one (Cu22) was THICK and sticky, which I do not usually notice. The HB1 and Santana were smooth as glass, but I do not know what years or finishes they had. All three had the spot on PRS workmanship, and the Santana was stunning to look at, but was HEAVY for me. (9.5 LBS) Anyway, it was fun, all three played like the proverbial butter , and each was impeccably made. Love my PRSs!!!
