SE NF3?!

[Russ73]

Pearl white?!?


Wide thin

The WT on the SAS is beefyish...I assume this is the same neck....I wanna hear a demo with a little gain!!

 

[WingerRules]

So it is now official. I'll be interested to see some specs on the pickups. We know they aren't a version of the magical 57/08 NF's that we all love, but this guitar is still very interesting!

Just ordered the Pearl White/Maple fretboard from AMS. Should be here in 2 days. Review to follow…

Excited about the new release, but wondering if I should hold off in the event a core model is released. Time will tell though - anxious to see also what's coming for the 40th anniversary.

Wide-THIN neck

Okay

The Anderson demo does a tone comparison with the SE Silver Sky. While it does sound single-coily, it’s nowhere near as bright and has a significant mid-range presence lacking in the true single-coils, I like it.

Interesting, 22 frets, standard PRS trem. I had a core NF3 when they first came out that I liked a lot. What is the body wood on these?

Poplar.

 

[Veetwin]

Well, my "real" NF3 just got more valuable. At least that's what appears to have happened with "real" SASs.

I have a real SE SAS.

 

[Mike Duncan]

A Core US version would probably make me open my wallet.

WT neck profile

Yep lost me at WT neck , same reason I dislike the Modern C Fender necks.
But I already have a NF53 and a NF3 so this guitar was not made with me in mind anyway should be a big seller I think

 

[DogPhishHead]

I think my SE Silver Sky is as good as gone, I want the SE NF3 so bad, that’s my type of S style…thicker tone, and that maple board

 

[Smolder]

I’d love to have a Strat that sounds like a Strat but without the hum in crappy bars. But, that’s why I have a LP Deluxe with mini humbuckers.

 

[dickiegranthum]

These appeared for Long & McQuade this morning, before the news sites I follow had them.

I mean, THREE humbuckers? Feels so… Black Beauty?

Trogly's video* shows the import NF3's pickups have 4-conductor wiring, so I'm tempted to put a megaswitch in one and try

Neck (h)
Neck (s) / Middle (s)
Neck (s) / Bridge (s)
Middle (s) / Bridge (s)
Bridge (h)

* (I would add it here, but don't want to run afoul of the no-links-please rule for us new folk.)

Ordered mine today

Looks fantastic! I’m intrigued by the use of poplar as a body wood and the pickups sound interesting in Brian’s demo. I’ll grab an Oce Blue Metallic Maple when the make their way here.

 

[PRSGLover]

Lately I tried couple of poplar Strats ... Good wood.
And from PRS, I'm glad they have white body / black pickguard combo. That one looks cool to me. <3
Remind me of Brent Mason model.

I’m happy as I’m in the market for a second hand SS!
