Is The PRS SE Hollowbody II Piezo the Gimmick That No One Wants to Admit?
Переглядів 4,3 тис.6 місяців тому
The PRS SE Hollowbody II is an interesting guitar. It boasts two output jacks that includes a piezo electric blend powered by an on board preamp. But does the guitar have merit? Maybe to the right person. But to 90% of the population, it may just be the Chinese-made money-grab that PRS designed it to be. Wanna watch the video that started it all?

Crucial Advice If You Want to be a Paid Church Musician
People keep saying Epiphones are great! I’m sorry but every Epiphone 335 I’ve ever picked up felt horrible. Gretsch guitars feel much better at first feel!
For some reason i thought that bird was an owl
Tells me nothing. You said its a 335 killer. If yr going to make that claim, I expect you to be able to say its better than a Gibson without qualification
Great guitar. Pity they stopped making them
what reverb pedal do you recommend then?
Iridium is not better straight out of the box.
I have 8 I find more difference among acoustics, so 4 of these are acoustics. Dreadnaught for recording. OM for sofa. Two GA for live.
A good violin costs at least 4k. Yes, the USA-made Gibson ES-335 is worth it.
@@teodelnorte violinists having a hernia as we speak
Fuck, give me back my 9 minutes! I had the same issue when I preordered this shit of a cab, and had the same issue, but I was forced to resend it back (on my charge) to get a refund, and they didn't even bother sending me a replacement... Privilege?
Part two wind up again. Going for more monetisation, I guess. Didn’t even mention the straight humbucking sound. “Must be made in China cos the wiring is junk,” I paraphrase. Show us the junk wiring, then. Are Eastman’s the same? Joker. I’m a Fender owner and you’re persuading me to buy this PRS. Guessing you had a bad PRS experience somewhere in the past.
Thanks for persuading me to buy this guitar. Sounds like you haven’t a clue, but have a huge chip about PRS. Just paying for it now….
This guitar is a great tool when you have gigs with medleys with first song acoustic and 2nd one electric. I have no car. So I have to wear my setup. Trust me when I say that taking this guitar and my Strat is the best combo I've found on all my gigs. Btw It fits very well in the Reunion Blues RBCE1.
Good news, these pedals are way less expensive on the used market and they sound amazing. I wanted a Vox sound... the Ruby blows the TC Electronics version away and is way cheaper than even a used AC15.
Semi hollow and fully hollow guitars are better more versatile and lighter than solid and chambered solid guitars
Gretsch electromatic
I am disappointed the UA-cam automatically played this video when I wasn't paying attention, giving it a view that I specifically didn't want you to have. Since I'm being intellectually honest, I don't appreciate your "negative opinion for clicks" approach to product reviews or your face. Please stop making videos.
@@jjmeyerwtf I hope you reconcile with the pain in your life that has made you who you are, and that you find wholeness and peace with that which you’ve been allotted.
@@IkeGuitar I appreciate your sincere, cut-and-paste "high road" response. I will work on my pain reconciliation in continuing avoid your channel.
PRS sells SE locking tuners for like a hundred bucks and it’s well worth it. I did it for my SE SVN 7 string
Buy the PRS Single Cut SE, S2, or Core, McCarty 564.
Why play guitar with all your needs ??????????????????
Im not here to bash LOL 8 out of 10 videoes on your channel is about whining Mommy I think they hate Ike whiner But to me, it's more gimmick than tool OMFG
The dry signal on the freeze is a definite fail. I expected the freeze to drop into a different buffer, but I guess they cheaped out on it.
"very recent addition"??? and why does it have core knobs?
Came out in 2023 bro
I can put whatever knobs I want on it?
Lol@@IkeGuitar
You jump around churches? Why don’t you just play at your church?
This is a job for me.
If you don't play any guitar to proof your theory, I wont believe you.
ua-cam.com/video/-9lgx1H-SJQ/v-deo.html Suck it, Trebek
Fun fact les paul is my great great great great grandfather
This is WAY underrated. Keep up the good work!
@@Samuel-qp5lj thanks, Samuel!
That's why I buy Se and not core it's all nuance and I cannot justify the price difference essp when se sound good for what their doing
I've chosen a Chinese made Gretch Pearl editon semi hollow body. Paid some € 900. Plays, sounds and looks great! It rocks as well as rockabillies; plays Elvis, Cash, The Eagles, Skynyrd, ZZ, BB and the lot, and all the ones that I forgot to mention... Santana, Gary Moore, so many more... the ones in jazz like Atkins, Pass, and all the other most iconic players... I can't give credit to them all. For Bossa Nova I prefer my nylon stringed ceder top chines made, Maurice Dupont designed Lag Occ 180 classic guitar. For it's qualities at some €500 a bargain. It's got a tuner and small pre amp, plays like a dream..., plenty of overtones, well designed: a beautiful guitar.
Final Fantasy XV music in the background? Lol
😂❤
I have 2 gretsch models G5422tg and G5420t. Classic vibe 50’s tele and 60’s Jazzmaster. Epiphone 59 les Paul with greeny mod. I always decide what I’m taking, once I know what songs are planned for any given Sunday morning
DO you use this guitar at Church and for what styles?
I use it for everything!
It is a laminate back and sides, ("layered" in Taylor terms), with a solid top.
All of these points are great. I think the biggest one for me, as a church EG player, is that absolutely no one is going to tell the difference. Yes, you might be able to make it sound cooler through your own ears, but no one is going to be able to tell the difference in a live setting if you have 2 algorithms playing at once, or if it’s panned certain ways. The only reason I’d consider is for recording purposes, if I wanted something the OG Bigsky couldn’t do. But is that worth $700? Probably not
All good points!
C’mon, that’s not a fault, it’s a fan noise emulator.
Its been discontinued
This is excellent information. Thanks!
You bet!
Even cheap Indonesian made LTD guitars come with SS frets. If you really want a usa Strat its better value to buy a new non SS fret model and get it refretted in SS. It will still cost less.
i love the dream...if i lost it, buy it again, for sure...
PRS derangement syndrome.
Click bait , read the manual bro🤡
I have one. The neck sounds find. The bridge pickup sound is not great.
I think they removed the swell option, that i loved.
I just purchased a used (2022) Texas Tea Stratocaster a couple of days ago and saved over $500. I used to own an American Standard Sienna Sunburst Stratocaster but had to part with it a few years ago. Hated to let it go. Now that I can “replace it” I thought to upgrade it with the Ultra. Good reviews, upgrades over the Standard and the color helped make the decision for this 70s/80s rock weekend warrior.
Where is the swell mode? It does not come with it?
I’m pretty sure they got rid of it as a stand alone algorithm, but it’s still on the pedal under one of the other algorithms. I forgot which one, I want to say it’s under plate or hall.
This guy needs to be removed from the Choob.
There's too much difference in equipment to have an apples to apples comparison of the solid vs semi hollow bodies
The biggest difference is the fingerboards totally different on an ultra compound radius the fingerboard is way nicer than a turn on the n american professional and I found a brand new ultralux for 1799
I have both of them and for sure the Epiphone Les Paul Studio it's much better
You got a smoking deal my man! I recently purchased a Pro ll in vintage sunburst with a maple fretboard, but when I saw the deals Fender and GC are running for the 4th, I took the plunge and ordered a cobra blue American Ultra with a humbucker in the bridge and rosewood board. 30% off from Fender, 10% off from GC, and 10% in rewards! That's basically $600 off the regular price! I'm kinda excited!
How so?
