I literally just bought my S2 594 McCarty today. Same color as you have. The only difference is I bought the 10 year anniversary addition which has the 58/15 LT pick ups that are USA made, Pearl bird inlays, different neck wood and a 10 year truss rod cover. Its as close as I can get to the PRS Core models without spending $4500! It took me months to figure out what I wanted. I played a few SE models and they felt a little clunky compared to the S2's. It should be here in a few days. Can't wait!
You got a great deal man! I have the Blue SmokeBurst and swapped out the pickups for the 58/15LT tci thing is an absolute monster 🔥 plays like butter. Stock pick-ups were really good but I play clean most of the time and liked the openness and clarity of the Lt’s
@@PeterPlaysGuitarHey man, sorry for the super later reply lol. It was either a 594 or a Les Paul standard. I actually had a les paul years back but never really fell in love with it. Recently I purchased another 594 but the thin-line model and had plans to swap out the pick ups but NO WAY im doing that, the 58/15”s” actually sounds different in the thinline, gives me a less bright but warmer tone that I absolutely love. They sound similar but not the same
I decided to go a different route this week by doing a little story telling. Let me know if you enjoy this type of video. Maybe I will do another like this in the future?!🤔
Hey, thanks for watching! I believe that you are right about the electronics. I had that brand new SE lose signal while I was playing it and that was enough to scare me off. Maybe it was a fluke and that particular guitar should not have passed inspection, I don’t know. Either way, the S2 that I bought has never had an issue like that.

That’s awesome! And thanks for sharing. I still play mine allot and I love it. I’ll have to look up the one you found and check it out.
The S2 guitars are great guitars. Smart move. The core (CE) models are even better. Keep on rockin!
Do you have a Core model? I have not ever played on one myself.

Thats awesome! When did you get yours? Were there other guitars you were considering?
