New trade day: more PRS content

[Budda]

I found someone with a nice PRS who was after a high end singlecut, so the huber and some money has gone to a new home.

Single owner Custom 24 artist package in black gold.
- maple neck (wide thin)
- ebony board
- hybrid hardware
- artist case
- outline birds

[Chris]

Fuck yes. Ebony board too, FTW!

[Budda]

Made a quick a/b/c clip since all 3 of my Core PRS have the 85/15's in them.

[bigdave]

Thats just sick, I love everything about that.

[zepp]

Hell yeah man that one is gorgeous.

EDIT: My SE has the same pickups and I think I might keep them in there. They are really nice.

[Budda]

Every time I look down it's like "nice."

25% of the electric guitars in my house have mahogany necks. How did I end up here?

[zepp]

What year is this one? The Custom 24s I saw in the shop yesterday had toggles, which I did not like. I’m pretty sure both the SEs and Cores had those.

2017. I want to say 2010ish the blades were introduced on custom 22 and 24?

[jacksonplayer]

Damn, that is spectacular!

They were toggles for individual coil tapping, which I personally found a bit too fiddly.

Ah, that is the 35th anniversary ones.

Ohhhhhh alright. I’m a PRS noob

I didnt realize this was a 35th anni thing til last week when I started checking specs with the huber as trade bait .

The two-tone bridge is such a classy as fuck touch too. This thing kicks ass dude.

The pickup screws are also two-tone to match. Nuts.

Yeah the hybrid gold hardware is a nice touch for sure. I own 3 core USA's (what?!) and none of them are "regular" for their model.

Edit: hybrid strap pins, goddamn

[Naren]

Gorgeous. Love the finish, fretboard (ebony and inlays), and back of the neck. Just a beautiful-looking guitar. While I've personally never gotten along with the feel of PRSs, I've always loved how they look, so it'd be great if I could find out with the right kind of mojo. Then again, maybe PRSs just aren't for me, no matter how much I love their looks.

If anyone is interested in this, send me a PM.

Trade you a UV and a Drew Peterson 8x10 Glossy for it. Comes with a free shovel and bag of lime!

Framed 8x10?

[RevDrucifer]

Damn, I don't know how this is the first time I'm seeing this but that is fucking SWEET!

I'm now looking for new, black saddles for mine because I love the two-tone look. I gotta find out what size bridge this is. Apparently there's some differences between the CORE's and SE's....or there was at some point?

I wasn't sold on these pickups at first, but I'm getting used to them. I LOVE how they sound with the coils split. Definitely versatile pickups, that's for sure. I thought they were a bit vanilla the first couple of days but as I started going through different amps I started noticing things about them I really dig. Though mine would look cool with some black nickel covered pickups.....

Congrats! Sure is purdy.

For those who have experience with both, which is better, a PRS or comparable EBMM?

I've played a bunch of nice PRSs and while I prefer EBMMs (I own 5), it's not really apples to apples. I don't particularly like the feel of PRSs, and think they look a bit too adult contemporary for me.

[Budda]

To me its "do you like wider or narrower fretboards?" As the ebmm's i've played are all narrow and thus not for me. Both are high build quality.

[Chris]

EBMMs are mostly bolt-on ugly superstrats. PRSs tend to be neckthrough/setneck ugly Adult Contemporary Missionary Position Old People Guitars.

It's pick your poison I guess.
