When I bought my 1st PRS I believe they were originally phasing out the CE models. I never owned an older CE for this comparison.
Looking at my older McCarty, I am trying to find the differences This is what I came up with.
Can someone tell me if I am correct. (Anyone own an older CE “ Bolt on”).
1. The Birds on this are white plastic I believe the older CE’s had abalone?
2. The back trem and Electronics plates used to be routed to be flush with body. The new plates just sit on top the guitar?
3. Though American made, the CE uses a Korean Trem and Tuners? (Believe I saw this ona YouTube video).
4. Not sure about the total body bevel but the Vol/Tone bevels are not as deep as my 2010 McCarty?
5. Older CE’s came with a case?
6. New CE don’t grade their wood. Older CE’s would have a “10” if it was a ten top?
