Haters on gibson because they're inconsistent. Haters on prs because they're not. 😜

[@voxelraster]

Exactly!

[@warlockbob5518]

Yeah, what the Hell!@@voxelraster

[@manofthepeople2165]

How the hell is gibson inconsistent? I have not heard a Les Paul that makes me think "that doesn't sound like a Les Paul". All Les Pauls sound great to me, maybe the quality control can vary at times, sometimes the new Les Pauls are a little overweight.

[@PaulCooksStuff]

@@manofthepeople2165 watch Rhett Shull's video on why he dislikes PRS and loves Gibson. He likes that he has to search for years and play dozens of LPs to find a good one with "mojo" that feels "right". He dislikes that every PRS plays the same. Dave Grissom (of PRS DGT signature model) expresses the opposite view - he never takes his own DGT to in-store events/demos/clinics - he expects to pick a DGT off the shop wall and it to play as well as his personal guitar. That, in a nutshell, is what I mean by inconsistency and consistency. And also why players themselves are divided by it.

[@the_armada5579]

@@manofthepeople2165 its less about the sound, and moreso the feel. I can go into any music store and play every gibson and i guarentee you half of those are gunna feel like crap, stick necks from too much coating, super dry fingerboards, scratches in the fingerboard, poor fret job, etc. It feels awesome finding a good one but thats only because its so hard to. PRS on the other hand 90% of them are set up perfectly and so all feel the same. which is a good thing

[@robertlucas9867]

The hate for PRS is ridiculous. SE line is the best quality overall compared to other companies that forced them to improve. The American PRS are comparatively similar price to both Gibson and Fender who offer guitars from $2000-$10,000 also so the statement that PRS is a lawyer/doctor guitar is a lie. But for the same price PRS especially the private stock I think offers more customized options since you can handpick wood in person and color whereas Gibson and Fender are stuck on reissues, stressed/vintage looking guitars with limited color options and certain woods they pick. But people spend $5-10,000 for Gibson or Fender guitars that look no different than others so🤷‍♂️ I see a lot of black stressed Fenders worth $$$$$$ but that’s ok but a custom handpicked PRS for same price receives hate.

[@shawnmcginnis2508]

It's a bit costly and will take a bit of time , but PRS can modify the CE into a CE24-08 as far as switching goes. My CE24 Semi-hollow had a finish problem from new. Sent it in for warranty work and had them modify it while it was there. I love the 24-08 switching. For me it was an awesome mod!

I play guitars I like. I have several epiphone LP’s, a few Gibson LP’s, a few USA fender strats, fender USA tele and a Squier tele. I love all of them. I had a prs se Zach Myers, awesome guitar, but I sold it because I didn’t play it much. Guitars are just…awesome.

[@stratguy1013]

LANDON I have been playing guitar for 60 years. I am 75. All my playing life I have wanted a Les Paul. In recent years I have Wanted a PRS. Here's the problem I have encountered for 60 years...the price. These guitars have always been out of reach for the average player. If you have a family or are on a fixed income, ownership is a distant pipe dream. I envy you being able to own both. Also I love and look forward to your videos. They make my day. Please never stop.

[@jimmyjames2022]

Senior on low pension here. I've bought a really clean condition used Gibson Les Paul Studio locally for $900CAD (Vancouver BC). By clean I mean virtually mint. Just got to look for deals and then press them. Used PRS Core are pricey though, but you know you can haggle. I'm 68 with playing difficulties but I'm going to enjoy my hobby till I can't.

[@tonedowne]

Get a PRS DGT SE. Same kind of price as a decent Epiphone. But trust me it’s an amazing guitar for any price. Easy to play, the neck is kind of like a Gibson, it’s really lightweight and ergonomic. I have to flame top with the birds on the neck and it is stunning. But they also just released a super stripped down guitar with a bolt on neck and no maple top for under $600 usd. It still has the birds on the neck and comes on some different colour wood stains, from dark to bold. Same hardware and electronics as in models that cost 3 and 3 times the price

[@sconni666]

There are a lot of pay as you play programs these days. I got a new SG for like $130 a month or something.

[@ThePedroDB]

I correctly guessed the Les Paul in the tone test - probably because I own an LP Standard HP2 with Burstbuckers. Either that or it was blind luck... Either way, I'm not a big fan of the Burstbuckers - they're too bright in my guitar. My Studio HP has the 490R/498T pups and they produce that 'instant Thin Lizzy/Gary Moore' tone. It's what I wanted from an LP and has become my favourite as a result. I don't own a core PRS but if I did the CE model would be my choice. I have a couple of PRS SE Santana models and whilst they are perfectly good, I rarely play them. I probably should sell them. I wouldn't miss them 🤷‍♂

[@MusicFan1967]

I full on knew which was which in the blind test… but it’s cheating since I have two PRS ( core and S2 ). Great video! Thanks for sharing!

[@narglefargle]

I think both of them sound fairly similar, for the most part. I preferred the neck pickup on X, but the bridge on Y. As for a Gibson v. PRS opinion? I have a love-hate relationship with guitars from both companies. I'll take whichever one feels right in my hands and makes the noises I like.

[@dudebroguymate]

I got the guitars right. The CE has a clearer sound, almost Hi-Fi. It's made super well and the 85/15s are great. The Gibson was not as clear. And despite owning a CE, I'm not sure if I prefer one over the other. Both can sound great.

[@PdaMack]

It took me right til the end to figure the Gibson was Y. Just the tone with the drive tipped me to lean that way. I'm happy with my guess. I know it was 50/50, but I was actually trying, lol

[@joematiacio3449]

I like your style.

[@DavidMorales008]

I have a PRS Tremonti but it’s an SE so I don’t think it counts on hate meter since a big PRS complaint is high price for low resale value I have a Gibson SG and even some Gibson lovers hate SGs I love both guitars the SG I love more, the tone the feel and I don’t have crippling neck dive issues like some complain about

I don't hate Gibson or PRS, I don't like all the law suit issues Gibson is doing to our beloved budget guitar markets,they are bullies,and are responsible for picking on stolen designs,and in turn our budget guitars,which are trying to please the fans,can't do what we wanted,like open book headstocks,zebra pickups,and more, they wrecked theirself,even the occasional buyers of Gibsons, are now turning to chibsons, which are coming in with better QC and set up,PRS is in a class of it's own,a lot of people just don't like the shape of their guitars,other wise they get kudos for sound and innovation.

After 50+ years of playing I've gotten over big name branding when looking for a guitar. There's so many choices, and good ones, for affordable prices. So, I guess I was never a guitar collector just an avid guitar abuser...if that makes sense? I play hard. Have a PRS CE24 that now hangs on the wall when I go out to gig. Meh. My current #1 is an Ibanez GIO, and my backup a Yamaha Pacifica. Neither are top of the line but both serve by purpose very well. 🤘😉

How do you find the scale length when switching between the PRS/Gibson and Teles? Find much of a difference? Have a preference?

[@beefnacos6258]

All of them feel good. On the prs it's easy to do big stretches in my opinion

[@electrictarkus5629]

Yes Gibsons have the shortest scale lenght, super comfy for chords and riffs, but frets can get very small by the end of the fretboard, Fenders have the longest scale, you have to stretch a little bit more, but a fender scale neck with a good slim compound radius is just fantastic.

[@shawnmcginnis2508]

​@beefnacos6258 PRS offers the 245 (also the Zack Myers) that have a 24.5 scale length. Even shorter than a LP. Strings bend really easy and it inspires me to do more bendy type playing. My CE or Custom 24 guitars encourage maybe a bit faster and more technical playing. Going back and forth take a maybe 20 seconds to settle in.

I love PRS and Gibson but I’m not going to pay Gibson prices. That’s a personal preference. It doesn’t help that all the Gibson guitars I like are only available in right handed guitars and I play left handed. I just build my own guitars.

[@tagsdm]

Well, I don't hate my PRS, and I have one of the least desirable, poorest selling models ever...an '08 McCarty II with the dreaded (gasp!) MVC. An online store had a bunch of these dust collectors at about 1/2 price a while back and I figured what the heck. Actually, the MVC can produce great tones, it just eats those two 9v batteries like a house afire. Without fail one will die while you're blasting out your brilliant cover of FreeBird. However, I learned that played passively, the thing sounds great, and breathed new life into my former closet queen. Plus I get most of the other PRS perks, like great build, fantastic neck, decent top (not 10), birds, and, honestly, pride of ownership. Also in my 70s, playing since '66.

[@Steven_SK]

Well in my search for the perfect guitar I have aquired quite a few brands. I love my Gibsons and Fenders. I have a few PRS models as well but never got along with them as well. I gave up on the perfect guitar and started loving each for what it is... and what it is not because it is what it is. Only one brand I actually hate.....

[@jayp.2313]

I think PRS is great if you got back problems like me.

[@guiarnoldi]

Nothing against PRS, never felt in love with it, but the ones I played were nice guitars. Now regarding Gibson, and Fender for that matter, there's nothing today done by them that can't be done by any other maker. I respect tradition and how they shaped music history, but I don't play history, I play guitars. And my money is too hard earned for me to justify spending what these brands ask for compared with what is delivered by them. With Gibson there's even the shitty QC that's almost legendary at this point. PAFs are PAFs because each one of those were made differently, same with the bursts. And then there's the legal bs and the play authentic. Now, if money is no problem to you, then chose whatever. But, to me, even if I could buy a murphy lab, I'd look somewhere else with that kind of money.

[@stuahlers1528]

Landon, all your really comparing are the pickups! If you would switch the LP pickups and put them in the PRS, would they not sound the same?

Same boat. First guitar was a squier affinity, and everytime I tried out another brand, I wouldnt like the feel as much as my Squier, so I ended up getting a Fender. Also I'm just more used to the Fender stratocaster control layout, I really don't like the Les Paul's pickup selector placement or having 2 volume knobs.

[@christophervincent8420]

most guitar companies make good instruments. Most people find one, or a couple companies that makes a certain guitar (or type of guitar) they're looking for... and that company becomes their favorite.

[@randrothify]

I like Gibson guitars so much that I am opportunistically seeking to fill out my guitar rack with a few more over the next several years. Unfortunately, I don’t have nearly the same affection for Gibson’s spiraling price increases, quality control, or the way they have tried to throw their weight around lately. For PRS, I always liked their look but found their sound to be a little antiseptic and neutral. I then bought an SE and realized how biased I was because I had always used Fender and Gibson as a reference point rather than considering PRS as having its own sound. From this perspective, it’s less that PRS has no soul and more that Fender and Gibson are very idiosyncratic. PRS guitars are like very clean electrified acoustics with a moldable sound profile that is more versatile than either Fender or Gibson. Now I am in the market for another PRS SE CE when updated colors are released.

[@mortonwilson795]

Insightful comment re: PRS. Finely tuned, consistent etc. which for some = 'bland', I guess. I have played a Gibson LP Custom since 1974, a lovely Japanese made Strat sine 1979 (and a few other guitars along the way) but I bought the PRS SE Custom 24:08 on sale and I'm really enjoying it - in part because the split-coil combos are fun, but also because I mainly go for 'clean' tones so I appreciate the definition . . . and that's just from the stock pick-ups!

I play Les Pauls cause they feel comfortable and I like the sound. I guess the hate comes from their high prices. Maybe its Gibson’s fault. They don’t promote their Tributes and Studio as much as they should and those guitars punch well above their weight…

[@DavidAVest]

It's value. I grew up idolizing Gibsons, especially Les Pauls. Then I got my hands on some, as well as guitars from competitors. I hate the idea of paying $3,300 for what I get from other companies for $1,200... except for branding. Gibson's chief product these days is nostalgia. Doesn't mean their guitars are bad, but you're paying a huge premium for the brand.

[@manofthepeople2165]

Just buy epiphone then, thats why the import lines exist. It's a different headstock shape and different logo but the sound and feel is as close as you can get to a Gibson. PRS charges just as much, if not more for their SE line if not more than Epiphone.

[@DavidAVest]

Because people love to hate, or vise versa. I can only afford Squires, so I dislike them strongly.

[@erinmylungs8711]

God damn, there’s just something about a les Paul in blue 🤤🤤

[@ubertwerpify]

Wow - that surprised me - i thought i would prefer PRS preferred les paul - ha!

[@zacharysmithingell5460]

Blue guitars sound the best. Yeah. I said it.

[@HotJuicyMess]

iv used to realllly want a gibson when I first started playing guitar back in 2015ish. i was 14 or so at the time. now, I dont care about gibson personally, if i had to spend my money id buy a prs. I do own a prs now and I doubt i ll ever buy a gibson. i am not against them but theyre uncomfortable and heavy.

[@3Torts]

X sounds and looks better. Awesome video

[@MalikAmer87]

I have 2 PRS guitars se 245 and a core mccarty hollow body 2, the SE is a good guitar, in the other hand the mccarty is best guitar I’ve ever played in my life, in addition, it sounds a little bit brighter but balanced, it just has a beautiful silky sound.

[@JustMe-mn5hk]

It's simple, because fender is the best thing in the world!

[@DarylT64]

I guessed correctly. I love them both but, like the sound of the Gibson just slightly better although I really like the look of the PRS. Very hard to choose between the two 🎸🤘🏻

[@palevas]

I like X more and I think it's PRS (haven't seen the reveal yet)

[@TheCommonSenseProfessor]

I don't care what other people think about my guitars and I feel strongly about this.

[@charlesdavis5942]

I love Gibson but can only afford Epiphone. I enjoy your videos keep it up. I have a Epiphone 59 I’m happy with it

[@morecowbell69]

PRS body looks the bastard child of a Les Paul and a Strat. They may be great, but something about that shape is just off-putting to me. Also looks strange with a bright chrome tremolo. Lools like the kind of guitar that would have a hardtail.

[@jerryshade4333]

Gibson is too expensive. Haven’t found a PRS that has a neck carve that I like. I do have an Epiphone that I like.

[@MrCamarokid83]

I have my 3 Gibson's and I enjoy them but I wouldn't buy one nowadays.

[@Serjm87]

"My mouth just turned stupid." Yeah, been there.

[@electrictarkus5629]

I like both brands a lot, they`re just really expensive, also gibson should add out of phase and series parallel switching to all their tiers not only the most expensive models.

[@johnwilkes681]

Just find a good Telecaster, job done.

[@spaghettimeatballswow]

PRS is just too darn expensive.

[@johnnyhomekit]

"My mouth just turned stupid"... too funny!

[@jasonc5085]

Personally, Gibson and PRS are not my vibe; neither their playability or sound inspires me. I do not hate them, I simply play what does feel good to me, that inspires me. Gibson and PRS are not those guitar brands for me. Play what inspires you, and respect those who find inspiration with different brands. We'll make better music together, not divided...

[@roygaber8659]

I don't discriminate, I play. You know what they say about opinions. I did guess correctly BTW.

[@michaelluong6484]

I've always been awed by PRS guitars - bit of Maryland native bias.

[@norseman61]

I guessed correctly, but it really was just a guess. I think most of the haters of these brands are just bandwagon jumpers. My biggest gripe about Gibson is some of their outlandish pricing. PRS has expensive guitars too, but they also have SE models that are considered incredible bargains (bang for the buck). You will never hear “bargain” and “Gibson” in the same sentence… except for this sentence. Never say never. Damn it, I did it again.

[@eriknissen4004]

They sound similar because they are both blue …. Red burst sounds better

[@aliengrey6052]

Because people feel bitter because they can’t afford them. They are the best in the world. Fact.

[@GaryGBrown]

I don’t hate any guitar manufacturer but in PRS case, he’s made a damn good living basically copying Fender and Gibson. I don’t see any value added other than to have a guitar that doesn’t have a Fender or Gibson label on the headstock. Gibson and Fender created the guitars that Paul is cashing in on. The argument about cost is moot as well. Gibson makes Tribute series guitars as well as studios which are much more affordable. PRS has cheaper priced guitars and they too have outrageously priced guitars. Gibson also has Epiphone which is both well situated price and quality wise.

[@tonedowne]

People hate on Gibson because they are overpriced and going for the cashed up midlife crisis market. But they do make great sounding instruments. PRS are on fire. They don’t have the double edged sword of being associated with the founders of rock music, so they are free to tweak and change without people complaining. I think the foundational design of PRS guitars are way more guitar player focused, and as time goes on new players will have little emotional and inspirational attachment to guitars of the 1960s. New players will pick up PRS and just feel that they play better. I love a Gibson LP, but when the playing gets hectic, I have to navigate that brick of a neck join. Whereas my PRS never takes me out of thinking about the notes.

[@son0fsocal]

Price. that's why people Hate them.
