    Lol so totally didn’t mean to, but this just happened to perfectly line up with today’s virtual PRS Experience. Anybody else tuning in? Anyways, here’s a singlecut..
    And we hit 80K, holy crap! Thank you so much for sticking around, on to 100K!

      Agufish At one point I owned an American standard satin 22 and it was hands down the best guitar I ever owned. Unfortunately money got tight and I ended up selling it. I swear to god it felt like I just broke up with the girl of my dreams. Prs guitars are that good.

  • @leeasbury7273
    @leeasbury7273 4 роки тому +1

    Had an early 2000's McCarty soapbar. Cool. But I paid $1200 for what I assume was a floor model. S2 didn't even exist. SE's were still made in Korea and were like $300 cheaper and kinda...better! And bring back the SE One and korina One. But don't even bother if you're gonna charge more than $500 unless it has locking tuners, NICE gigbag, upgraded adjustable bridge, and a GraphTech nut at least. Wasn't even that long ago before the lines were so blurred between all the tiers, like they are now. And, cmon PRS...put locking tuners on them! They even make them in a vintage style, like this McCarty has now if that's the issue. There are still a few models that hit the right features and price point, but mainly it's just a clusterfrog. That being said, I've owned at least a dozen PRS and my current main is a 1994 CE 24. I like them, but they are kinda putting me off lately with some of these decisions & issues, like a $1200 Chinese made SE hollowbody, not to mention the disappointing finishes on them. Dull at best, but I just think they're straight up ugly...that charcoal looking one isn't bad...but everything I have is black! I want some nice color! Throw some nice bright stains on some of them. A nice royal blue, amber, something like that. Not ashtray burst! There are almost perfect Korean and even USA brands making better guitar's at that price. Some of those Korean factories make substantially better guitars than even Gibson and Fender. They just do now.

    I really want one of these but I can’t get out of my head the comparison that Phil McKnight did to the Core 594. The difference in clarity of the Core pickups vs the S2 was almost shocking. Annoying to spend $1700 and then feel like you need to immediately swap out the pickups - and not because they are in an output range that doesn’t suit you, but because you just think they are just BLAH. Going to wait a year until there are more for sale used.

      I know your comment is two years old, but since january 2024 the S2 line had a massive revamp.
      Overall wood selection is much better than the SE, the pickups and all other electronics are the exact same as the ones used on their USA Core line (4000 dollars plus guitars).
      Now the S2 has all the pedigree it needed, these guitars always had insane high quality build and finishes, but the electronics were their weak point... NO MORE!
      Putting quality control, craftsmanship and attention to detail into consideration, PRS smokes both Fender and Gibson.

    I love PRS and have owned 3 cores since the late 90's and own two newer S2's but for some unknown reason they just don't have THAT thing like Gibsons do. I don't know why. I've tried to love them for 25 years but...I don't get it. They have all of the elements nailed but the mojo and the sound is just not there on recordings. Thankfully, Gibson's quality in the last few years has really improved and they are back to give PRS some competition.

    I am looking forward to trying an S2 again, it was a long time ago and I didn’t love it, or the SE range, but the newest SE (35th c24) is just great compared to that time when I didn’t like it much. So I bought it. I hope I can try this S2, and see how it feels. You did a really nice job with this video thanks!

    Love PRS. These do not disappoint. Also props this demo song is probably my favorite one you've written.

    The Korean electronics in these are a part of the pricing advantage over the Core line, but Paul is clearly willing to accept smaller margins here too. However, I think it's more accurate to call them US/Korea hybrids rather than American made.

      They're still American made. They're assembled in Maryland. They just use more parts from overseas than other guitars. Almost all guitars use some parts from overseas since wood has to be exported. And other parts can come from other countries as well. So it still counts as American made.

    Would you say these are closer to the SE range or high end US catalog? I've played both the new Tremonti and Zack Myers SE's, phenomenal. Wanting to pull the trigger on an S2 but wasn't sure the purpose of this line with the SE quality reputation. Great review. To me it seems like this would be an upgraded SE where the "some of all the parts/craftsmanship" come together perfectly, or is it a bare bones "high end?"

      I’d probably swap out the pickups for taste, but the build and nitro finish make this feel far and away better than my Korean-made SE Tremonti (which is by no means a bad guitar). Upgrading an SE will get you a great guitar, but I’d still rather have an S2!
