Not A Les Paul: 2011 PRS SE Singlecut Review
Вставка

- ADDENDUM:
I traded it off shortly after filming this.
I got offered to trade for a Fender Jaguar listed a good 15% over this thing and I wanted to give it a go (review coming soon).
The Jag was later sold, then I joined a band for a while and kept thinking that that PRS would've been perfect for that particular gig.
Well, a few days after, this exact same one got posted again.
My brain was on some sort of a holiday, so without thinking I just lowballed to feel the room.
He took the deal right away.
Same dude I traded with 8 months prior.
The band broke off since.
The Singlecut has been posted for sale again.
I keep reaching for the Les Pauls, and I'm not getting rid of them.
Not that it has anything to do with anything.
It's been established many times during the video: this is not a Les Paul.

I’m flat out saying it, this is the best guitar YT channel ever. You never fail at making me loose my absolute shit laughing
Oh man thanks! I still gotta work on consistency, but this sure helps!
Dude you are a legend amazing review 💖
Thanks! You're very kind. I'm working on a few more right now.
Me gusto mucho tu vídeo, acabo de adquirir está guitarra y la compré por al rededor $290. La verdad estoy muy feliz con ella, se siente de muy buena calidad y el sonido es exactamente lo que buscaba, es comoda y visualmete muy bonita ¡Saludos desde Guatemala!
¡Excelente! Y tremendo precio, al menos para los estándares de Uruguay. Es una gran guitarra. ¡Que la disfrutes!
Nice video haha. I got a 2015 SE 245 Singlecut with 4 knobs in a recent trade about a month ago. Compared to my 1994 PRS Custom 24, this 2015 SE 245 is... just... well... best I can describe it is that it's a cheap guitar. Plain and simple. I've also played/owned cheap guitar brands like Harley Benton and Firefly. My "new to me" 2015 PRS is either equal to those $200 brand new knock offs or actually a little worse. Just doesn't sound gig worthy. Then I came across this video and wondering if it's because mine is made in Indonesia instead of Korea that my SE's body is much fatter, yet weighs like it's hollow inside. Gonna be on the lookout for an SE like in this video to compare my own and see if the cheaper PRS SE line has gone too far CNC machine these days. My SE is only good to travel with as a practice guitar when having to stay in a hotel (not for a gig) and worried about it getting damaged, lost, or stolen. I wouldn't recommend newer SE models (maybe the Silver Sky models are better?) unless you're just trying to learn the guitar and this is one of your first guitars. As an intermediate to low-level advanced weekend warrior gig type of guy, I would recommend saving your pennies until you can afford one of their more expensive models since you get what you pay for... or buy an American Standard Strat/Tele... or a nice Les Paul Standard. Something like that. You get what you pay for is all I'm saying with one exception... your style uses a TON of distortion (not just Overdrive, HEAVY distortion). Then get whatever guitar you want since it won't make too much of a difference.
One of the best videos in the history of guitar reviews!
I wish there were words that were good enough to express how much I appreciate this comment.
Puse el vídeo casi por casualidad y encima conectado el audio a los parlantes del gimnasio gimnasio y todos han tenido que escucharlo, estás perdiendo plata, me he partido de la risa y no lo adelante ni un pelín, además justo era lo que andaba buscando, desde ya me suscribo: esto está mejor que el maldito tok.
Jaja qué Grande! Creo que me mando un par de disparates de entrada, pero imposible que sea peor que la mitad de las cosas que salen por los parlantes de los gimnasios. Muchas gracias!
Fantastic! Finally someone who felt the same way when they got a PRS. Be carful, I sold my LP and now have 5 PRS in my collection.
DAMMIT I GOTTA GET RID OF THIS THING!!!
just subscribed. sold into this necessary madness
I very much appreciate it, sir.
The regular car reviews of guitar reviews 😂
Haha! That's a huge compliment! I was so thrilled when someone recommended me the PT Cruiser episode. It was like I'd found my high school buddies from across the world, only... less weird than I just made it sound? I've been hooked ever since.
How much is this guitar new
I paid about 1200 dollars back in 2014 but this was in South America so it was probably way cheaper in the US for example. Nowadays you can probably only find them used, I've seen them for about 800 or 900 on Reverb. Crazy bang for the buck.
@@lonerjuan 800$ used? Damnn. Is it any good ?
@@thawthaw03Okay, first, I got confused with a different guitar, so the number was off. I'm sorry for that. I'm having a very weird day. This version of the Singlecut can actually be found for about $500 in some countries, and yes, it is incredibly good. It'll give my Traditional Les Paul a good run for its money. PRS, regardless of the origin, is always up to crazy levels of quality.
I haven't tried the newer versions of the SE Singlecut, which is a bit different, but if this guitar is any indication of anything, I'm sure they are excellent, maybe even better than this one.
@lonerjuan thank you. Currently looking to get one but I am so much in love with my strat . Lol
@@thawthaw03You can always love more than one... maybe a couple dozens even...
You are da-Juan. I hate when that happens. Pickups any good?😂🤘🏼
Surprisingly good! They are very clear and defined, very PRS-like. Not a hint of mud to them either. They definitely give my LPs a good run for their money at a quarter of the price.
perhaps what is most impressive about this is that you never seemed to take a breath from beginning to end
There's a couple edits in there, but yeah, I've been referred to as "exhausting", amongst other things along that vein.
@@lonerjuan I found it entertaining.
@@unabonger777 Thanks! That was the goal.
8:20 man... those calluses.. feels guilty but I don't got'em anymore. My fingertips are so clean and soft as your Dove soap 😅
Do you also wash your ass with those fingers like I do with my soap bar? Nevermind, don't tell me, I'll just assume you do... aaaaand thank you for the image... active imagination...
This is some funny Sh^t !
Thanks!
Lol i have the same guitar but mine has no birds 😂 2006 model
Birds or not, they're damn awesome guitars!
classic! Well done.
Thanks!
