NGD - PRS SE Standard 24 Ltd Edition in White Pearl

[Steve Clarke]

Just got this yesterday

I have played Fender guitars for many years and wanted something with humbuckers. I much prefer PRS as Les Pauls sound 'plummy' to my ears (or it may just be my playing style). The PRS definitely has some 'bite' to it.

This is a relatively low price guitar but the construction, finish and tone are all superb.

I LOVE the white pearl finish. It's easily the most 'bling' guitar I've ever owned

Congratulations Steve and welcome to the forum

Andertons (where I bought the guitar) ship to the US I think

Not guitars with rosewood. Maybe when the CITIES ban is lifted.

Great looking guitar! Is there metal flake in the paint?

Yes. It's kind of faintly glittery.

I tried 3 different colours, the matt black, the metallic blue and this one. It played and sounded the best of all of them.

Nice. I’ve always felt PRS needs to bring pearl white back to the core line. It’s a great color!

Thank you all for your welcoming words.

I've done some recording with the guitar and the bridge humbucker is wonderfully edgy sounding without at all being harsh.

My only previous experience of coil tapped pickups is the Hot Rails I had put on my Strat. It's great in humbucker mode but pretty much unusable tapped.

The PRS by contrast sounds GREAT tapped in all three positions.

I'm very surprised at how versatile this guitar is.
