    PRS is an awesome company. It will remain awesome until Paul is no longer with us. Companies tend to lose their purpose when the founder is no longer the captain. PRS is everything Gibson is not - and that is high praise. I appreciate Gibson and Fender for their heritage, who could not? They were the pioneers when rock n roll was getting started. They both have totally lost their way, and are simply a bad value today.

    I played one of these on Friday. Of all the PRS's i've played the CE is the only one I would commit to. I thought this was $900 as I was playing it... nope $500. I would have gone home with it had I the extra cash. It was that great. Probably the next guitar i'll get.

    I think the finish really depends on the wood selection. I have one in the same color, and the 3 pieces of wood for the body match very very well. It looks like one piece unless I look at it from like 4-5 inches or closer. So, if you care about something like that, make sure to look at pictures of the *exact* guitar, or find one in person.

    Ive been learning guitar since my Grade 10 Second semester earlier this year, Months in playing my transitions on chords have been very good ive learnt a few easy-intermediate songs and im ready to step up from my Jasmine acoustic to an electric guitar. I think this is the guitar I wanna get, it sounds so great and it seems like it will be able to play every genre i can think of.

    You forgot to mention that it comes with a treble bleed circuit, which when you turn down the volume pot it doesn't lose any of the treble frequencies, which is very useful for when you are on a dirty channel and you want to change from distorted to clean with just the volume knob

    I'm one that doesn't get along with the newer SEs. I have plenty of US models I love. However I played a few of these satin CE SE in stores. They were all great. I''m a guitar tech too. Some just needed a small twist of the truss rod to get perfect. I bought one and I had a set of USA 85/15 in my parts bin....OMG...such a great guitar with the core pickups. The stock pickups are great..but putting better set in really wakes up the guitar.

    I think the PRS tele is nice. It would be cool if the SE line could get their own tele with a few unique colors for around the 500-850 price point. Maybe they don't think it'll complete with the Fender Player as well as the Silver Sky SE did or something, idk. Or maybe it's already in the works, who knows. I think it would be cool.
    A "T" version of the SE McCarty 594 Singlecut with some kind of PRS trem or a floyd rose and some proprietary colors would be nice too since the Tremonti version is their only Singlecut+Trem combo currently (I don't like the pickups or color options for it). Oh and BRING BACK THE PRS SE KESTREL BASS! 🔥Bass players love PRS too.

    • @BeastMadeReviews
      @BeastMadeReviews  Місяць тому +1

      I don’t have insider knowledge, but if I were to bet, I would think that PRS is already in the process of making an SE version of their tele. I would definitely be interested in that too. Especially if they make an SE Myles Kennedy model!

    These guitars are getting great reviews so much so that PRS have lowered the price of the PRS SE CE with the maple top and gloss finish to £529 in the U.K. . PRS probably thought they’d never sell enough of them at £700 with the satin version in the video here coming in at £499 and getting these great reviews .

    • @BeastMadeReviews
      @BeastMadeReviews  Місяць тому +1

      oh that's crazy! I'll have to check out prices here in the US to see if they're doing the same thing. When the satin version is this good at this price, it's a hard upsell to $700 for the extra gloss shine and maple cap.

    It's pretty clear that all of your listed cons are really subjective for you personally, but do you have any more problems with the guitar that might be more objective?

      No, I really don't. I try to list all cons, both objective and subjective. My gripe with the wood pieces being shown is an example of something objective being something also subjective. But the guitar itself was flawless.

    Hmmm PRS is interesting indeed just I've never even bothered even once to play one, let alone buy one. I mean, if I want a Les Paul, there's a Gibson for that. If I want a strat, there's Fender. Just never seen the appeal of a PRS. Why go half way in between instead of all out?

    • @BeastMadeReviews
      @BeastMadeReviews  Місяць тому +2

      I don't see them that way. I think of them as a guitar with its own sound. With that said, they have guitars that lean into the Fender or Gibson sound. I think of this CE as more of a modern style bolt-on guitar.
