I purchased this exact guitar a week ago from Sweetwater. The color is called Quilted Black Gold Sunburst. Absolutely beautiful guitar. It’s quite stunning. Couldn’t resist at the current price. It’s my first PRS. I’m not sure you can find a better guitar at this price……..
Nice review and great playing 🔥
Thank you! Love that color name! It's sure is beautiful. I appreciate the kind words man! 😎🎵☮️
Thank so much for outstanding playing! ThkU for bringing me to another place! Thks for the video!
Thanks again for the deep dive, even the lower end PRS guitars are really sweet.
You're welcome! They really are fantastic!
Gorgeous finish on that guitar I must say. I just bought the SE CE 24 in vintage sunburst and I love it. It's my first PRS and I was blown away by how perfect everything was right out of the box. Frets were perfectly level and polished. Absolutely no buzzing anywhere. Even the intonation was done. It was the first guitar I have ever bought that didn't require me to do some sort of a set up or adjustment after buying.
Good choice! These are excellent guitars for sure 😎
Hi mate, how does the vintage sunburst finish look like ? Because I saw a few of these on reviews and photos and the sunburst looked very reddish to me, like the old PRS cherry sunburst
Yes you are right, it is more of a cherry sunburst, reddish orange on the edges. The top looks really good though. The flame maple pattern looks almost 3 dimensional. @@crapuleverte
I had this same feeling in 2009 when I bought my Ibanez RG350 in candy apple red. So good right out of the box.
I’m planning on buying this custom 24 quilt in blood orange, hope it’s perfect
@@SergiOrtiz Nice, go for it you wont be disapointed. I'm an Ibanez guy myself and the PRS still feels so good in my hands. I've always liked thin neck fast playing guitars. The PRS neck although thicker than an Ibanez still fells really comfortable. It has a 42mm nut instead of 43mm like on an Ibanez. The 25 inch scale and 42mm nut makes for a nice compact feel and I find it very easy to move around the fretboard.
I got my first PRS only 1 year ago. I'm more a Jackson, Kramer or Fender guy, but since i got my PRS I must admit I've fallen "in love" with this brand. I'm planning to buy the same model you show, but I'm still hesitating between this color and the turquoise one. One thing's for sure, no matter what color it is, it'll never sing in my hands like you do. You're the best Marty.
Thanks for watching and the kind words. 🙏🎵
Thank you! 🤘🏻😎🎸
Love the dramatic video intro!!! Cool looking guitar; I will admit I have never checked out PRS gear but I might have to now!
Thanks bro! I try to keep things fresh here on the channel! 😎. Dude PRS are knocking it pit of the park with the SE lineup. I've seen new SE Standards for $520 with a gig back. Incredible.
My wife and I use to live out side of the city of Annapolis Maryland before moving to the DelMarVa Eastern Shore. Beautiful Guitar 🎸🎶 sounds awesome 😎 love the beginning with the drone views.... Cheers 🍻 🥃🥃
Superb review. Fantastic playing. I have one of these and I'm not getting the best out of it. Must practice more!
Thanks Mark. I appreciate it dude. 😎🎵
Your playing did that guitar justice in your demo man.
Nice of prs to send you one of their guitars recognising your channel.
The ranch is looking good good 👍
Thank you! Technically it's a loaner so at some point they'll probably send me a return label lol. 😂. Perhaps?? Anyways.... I was more than happy to test one out and do a review dor them on the channel.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker hopefully they will be happy enough to let you keep it.
It's a really nice guitar.
@@bmac5085 I'm smitten with it. ❤️
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker They really are value for money, the clarity note, for note is amazing as well.
Marty…always great tone and phrasing…PRS SE’s are hard to beat…I’m really considering one of the new CE SE 24 models…on sale for 550 bucks…best deal in town👍
Thanks! Yeh man, best deals right now in the SE's. Great bang for the buck. And awesome to play, look at and also they are great sounding guitars. 😎🎵
I own an S2 and a CE , picked up a SE 277...wow I mean the wood aesthetics are obvious but functionality is damn near equal.
I think it has the Fralin partial coil split circuit. Should have a small value resistor on the p/p pot. It resists part of the signal going to ground on the affected coil. That way, it lessens volume drop. Also gives you humbucking capability with near single coil tonality.
Just bought my first PRS SE the CE 24. Love the guitar for the price...for me I prefer the satin finish maple neck... shout out for the Fly By Night riff! One of my warm ups...
The Custom 24 Quilt's with an ebony fretboard are aweome. Mine is in the Eriza Verde finish, it's a beauty! I think it's my #1 guitar now although my SE 594 gets played a ton too.
I have that exact guitar. The Eriza Verde finish is stunning and ebony boards are my favorite. I have 3 other PRS SE guitar each a little different but this one in the Eriza Verde is my favorite!
I got the Sweetwater Exclusive one back in March 2021. The only difference I see is that the fingerboard is Rosewood, and I had Zebra 85/15s pickups in mine. These are indeed stellar guitars for the price!!!
Whoa! I swear that a cow disappeared and a Paul Reed Smith Custom appeared! Ranch 5150 Skinwalker rules! 😁 Awesome filming, what a sweet guitar. 😲🎸
Lol. Only one Ranch5150Skinwalker! I've been listening to Art Bell again lately and got inspired! Thanks man!!
That is a killer guitar I bought the violet one 💜 and man is it awesome
Dude I just played a green quilt at guitar center yesterday. I was shocked I liked it so much. Debating hard today if I’m gonna take the dive and buy it. I shouldn’t, I have bought and replaced almost all my guitars this year, I don’t need another one but when you find ones you like it’s hard to pass on em.
Thanks for the review! I have a Custom SE in the limited edition, zebra wood fnish. You are definitely right, one of the best guitars available for its price point and above. 🤙🎸🤖
Awesome guitar man! 😎🍺
Love my SE custom.
Great review! Could you please tell me if this model already comes with stainless steel frets from the factory?
Really nice guitar. Sounds great
Thanks a lot! She's a beautiful looking and playing guitar
That is so pretty, i would be afraid to touch it. Stunning !
Thanks! I am in love with this color!
Tough to beat the quality/ price point with PRS se . . .Amazing guitars
It really is man. I've seen Custom 25 standards new with gig bag currently for $520. That's just a crazy good deal and great guitar.
Great job Brother do you find string bending easier on PRS than a nicely setup Les Paul or same thanks much
I’ve been looking at the SE and S2 series and know the difference between these. All things considered, is it really worth spending the extra money to go for an S2 vs an SE?
That's the quilt top version, it's on my list. Just got the PRS SE Hollowbody II in that color. Black Gold Burst
Your playing makes any guitar sound like a million bucks!
Thank you 🙏
Ha Marty that is a very pretty guitar love that color! Were did you get that from? Oh wow it sounds really good and i bet feel great as well Rockon man and enjoy that cool guitar.
PRS sent her to me 😁 check out the end of the video for the audio demo 😎🤟🏻
Any thoughts on the tuner gears that come with the guitar? I heard a rumor that the PRS Locking Tuners are a better choice .......
I bought a $25,000 guitar (1961 ES355 Mono w/sideways Vibrola) a couple years ago. FedEx left it at my front door without me signing for it. I was waiting until around 4pm. I checked the tracking number and it showed it was delivered at 11 am. I was so P.O'd. Someone could have walked off with and I would have been screwed. Anyhow, I dig your channel, thanks for all the tips...
On the other hand, if it have a must sign on it, you could have simply said you never received it.. but I guess you were just happy it was safe 😊
FedEx is the worst
You said this has no push-pull coil split. I'm assuming you are incorrect on this? Pretty sure this has coil split. Just double checking though.
I purchased the same guitar from Sweetwater a few weeks ago as well. The price is excellent for a quality guitar like that. My pickups are the Zebra color which looks good too. I'm going to play it for a while as is then will add the PRS SE locking tuners. Eventually I want to have the double black Seymour Duncan SH-18 Whole Lotta Humbuckers installed. I had that set of pups years ago and think it will be perfect in that guitar. It's a awesome guitar though right of the box!!!
They really are fantastic guitars. Best value for the money these days in my opinion.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker Your right about the good quality or best value. It's my first PRS guitar and I really like it. I think the pickups sound are a bit to bright for my taste but, then I plan to try different strings on it yet to see if that warms it up more.
@@artist0503 my only beef is the split coil it brittle especially when rolling back on the volume.
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker Most likely I'll up grade the pickups to the Seymour Duncan SH-18s Whole Lotta Humbers. Then I'll know better what that guitar can do. I personally don't need coil tapping as I have enough single coil guitars anyway. I fully agree with you on the 85/15 coil tapping.
great sound
Thanks man! 😎☮️
Cool intro!
Thanks! 🙏
Really dig the John Hyatt tune. Awesome. I’ll take that lesson 😊😊😊😊
Thanks so much man!
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker dude if I could jam with any musician in the world, it would be you my man . Your my hero , Ed’s gone but his music lives through all of us that actually appreciate real musicians. Todays music isn’t music at all. Thanks for your channel, so glad you took that step , I’m sure it’s helped a lot of younger guys / gals to learn and appreciate it.
@@jamesrexsannatracy8318 I'm very honored to hear that, I'm very flattered. I'm just trying to share my passion and also help to inspire/help others on their musical journey and hopefully make some folks happy and their day go a bit better! 😎☮️
There's no doubt of the quality and craftsmanship is fantastic on those guitars im just not a fan of the necks on them and the heal joint seem a bit archaic to me with all the choices out there I just look for something more my style nice review Marty 👍🤘
Thanks! I actually don't mind the neck heal joint. But for some reason prs necks are a bit wide for me and take a little getting used to.
Cool tones Marty! Interesting you used the Badger patch, instead of the usual BE. Love the PRS's, BUT, I never liked the CU24. The neck pickup is closer to the bridge, and never gets the nice thick woman tones the CU22 and Mccarty's do.
I use the Badger quite a bit especially if I want to clean up a little more. Just depends on the tune. 😁 I have both patches dialed in the way I like.
Just bought one from Guitar Center for $699!!! Grab one if ya can.
Great value!!! Unbeatable really. 😎🤟🏻
Is that blk gold burst color? Absolutely beautiful!! Thanks Marty 😊
Yep it is!!
You cant go past the SE range at the minute, they are awesome guitars, cant wait to get my SE Swamp Ash Special, couple of days and i should have it
How you like the SAS?
@djmc8505 I love it, nice feel in the hand, joy to play, versatile as too
Man I had the zebra wood top one took it back to the store then I traded gear for another se custom 24 now I feel bad for trading and selling them 😢
❤❤❤
Can you get VH sound out of it can’t remember if I could.
Kinda close. PRS humbucker voicing in my opinion is eq'd a bit different. A little rounder sounding and not as raw.
Guitar center still list them for $699 the custom se 24
I have an older PRS Custom 24 in a Tobacco Burst color which I love, the only thing I don’t like is the “zebra” color pickups. Other than that I truly LOVE this guitar and I’m mainly a Fender guy, but I will fight anyone who wants to take this one from me!!!!!!!
to everybody who OWN and PLAYED the guitar. Is is staying in Tune? and please be honest as possible, i cant decide if i get a shecter c-1 or prs se 24 custom.
This is a very stable guitar. I can assure you 😁🎵🎸
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker thank you
Price u get ?
I ❤ Indonesia 😊
Nice guitars coming out of the Indonesian factories 😎🎵🎵🎵
Very Floyd feel...Nice!
There's a push pull on the tone knob man.
It is nice to have binding. But oh my this one is SO WHITE. Sounds nice.
B E A. UTIFUL
Did someone get a new drone?
Over the summer. I love the thing. Figured I could used it once in a while for video: Check out my video on cranking 2 Marshall stacks. 😎🤟🏻
Looks like PRS accidentally mixed in the private stock wood and bookmatch with the SE.
Versatile, country to death metal…. Wonder what that neckboard consists of ? Ebony .. or that new plastic stuff
PRS specs online say rosewood. 🤷
PRS is knockin it outta the Ballpark this year. And these are ALL like 20% off right now. Very bummed Ive had to return mulpile FENDER guitars over the last 2 years. Their fretwork is HORRIBLE!
Been waiting for 10 years for a PRS without the birds. Never got the birds 👎
Check out the PRS Terero model. It's pretty awesome. 😁🎵
@@Ranch5150SkinWalker Oh wow!😮. They have a Floyd Rose! Gonna have to find a good one. Thanks😎
@@CAP21 you're welcome man! They're really nice. I used to have a white one 😎🤟🏻
Too pinging prs overpriced overrated
Overpriced? Really? PRS Custom Standard SE models are $519 brand new with a gig bag. 😂😂
😎👍
🤟🏻😎
