I got my first Modern Eagle the second it was available after seeing John Mayer playing one(or something similar to that, maybe a Super Eagle or something?) and it is fantastic. My Custom 24-08 is my go to, but this guitar is just as fantastic, and the middle pickup is a nice addition. Beautiful playing as always, Baxter!
But how are the humbuckers at being humbuckers? Are they more modern and dark sounding, or do they have the classic brightness of old PAF's when you want it? I'm just not sold on this TCI rabbit hole PRS are going down. And I don't love the pickups in my Special Semi-Hollow, but at least they are traditionally-sized humbuckers, so I can swap them out if I want to. That wouldn't be the case with the Modern Eagle, so those TCI pickups better be good!
PRS have there place . I've always loved the Modern Eagles. I own ME1 and ME2 . The LTD as well. I have limited ME V which is a different approach being more Versitile of them all. It's beautifully done . I have a Soft Part for those early ones but with the ME V they Nailed it. Now you can get the ME V in Core lineup which makes it more assessable which is a good move. Really I think there's really not much more you can do to this guitar.
Could we get a few more tones? A least a few seconds on each pickup w clean and dirty. Videos have been sounding like a jam on neck pup, then a sample of the guitar tones.

I have my PRS513 with solid Brazilian rosewood neck. And I love it.
Beautiful guitar! Some very nice tones in that playing
Bought one yesterday..fantastic guitar..even my Murphy Lab LP can’t beat this baby ❤

I do believe you have one of, if not the, favorite tone of mine Baxter! That Bloomfield Drive is sooo good! Tasty playing as always too!
I've had my eye on these for while.
Awesome playing Baxter 👌

Oh, I like this one ❤
Work of art.
Probably a little outside my price range, but it looks nice.
Not a PRS fan usually, but this one looks great.
I can easily imagine Baxter and Daniel Lanois in the same room doing things with pieces of wood and beat up tube amps
One day

Ooofff!!
Damn…..
If I wasn't such a skint loser I'd get one of these. Beautiful guitars
Pretty guitar, good playing, but the tones just leave me flat. (...and I usually LIKE PRS...)
Damn. Disappointed to hear all that hum.
it is not a Gibson!
May be great but it looks a Gaye coffee machine, Ugh.
