Paul Reed Smith's Worst Kept Secret! | Introducing the PRS NF53 & Myles Kennedy Signature!

[@johnevered9640]

honestly the tones from these are outstanding, very impressed with the high gain sounds in particular

[@Bravearrowsmusic]

Appreciate you guys taking some high gain takes with it. Mostly guys doing super clean stuff, but I wanna see it wail! Excellent playing.

[@jorisev]

after the silver sky it was just a matter of time before they made a T-style guitar, BUT the price point is ridiculous (£3,099 compared to £2,499 for a silver sky)

[@hillaryknox]

I dunno about “ridiculous”, but they’re doing such a good job with the SE’s lately, I’ll be waiting for that.

[@billgreen3629]

Don’t worry, if these sell they will quickly raise the price of the Silver Sky to match.

[@theblockyrocker9060]

A non-custom shop American ultra fender is £2199. Cheapest custom shop tele at andertons is £3599. How is the price point ridiculous when prs consistently builds higher quality guitars than both Fender and Gibson custom shop? The silver sky made me sell my custom shop stratocaster.

[@spaghettimeatballswow]

The pickups are special on these

[@hangingchad_]

@rustiecage1874agreed. This interests me, especially since I love my old NF3, but it wouldn't replace my Tele.

[@Desmondsound]

Wow the tone is amazing! Loving those pickups

[@jamesnelson1443]

I am so glad I held off on the Suhr T!!

[@ThePedroDB]

Shame about the 3-piece bodies. I might've expected 1 or at most 2 pieces from a USA PRS model... ..and especially at the quoted prices 🤷‍♂

[@CBGypsy03]

Ya I was thinking the same thing... throws the dog hair look off big time.

[@dougiemcclure]

Excellent review. You presented alot of playing, esp clean! Ty.

[@Gril018]

3k is a very high price, guitar sounds good, looks good, etc. but the price is very off putting for me. maybe one day they pull a SE version of this.

[@nathansnelgrove]

Aaron made that NF53 sound amazing.

[@liorauf]

What a monstrous player!

[@AmeyaKhare]

You guys can be expecting my order from Switzerland for the Myles Kennedy very soon, once I finally figure out which finish I want to get it in! 😂Got my Holcomb SVN and Tremonti USA from you guys in the past and can't think of going to anyone else with my order for this guitar! 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@joehiatt1992]

I think they listened ,over a year ago I posted as to why theres no tele prs,now there is, I also just added 2 more prs to my collection, a SE silver sky & a 594

[@jamesnelson1443]

Yes & WHERE THE CONTROLS SHOULD BE!!!!!!! Fender never bothered to change a YUGE FLAW!!!! Good job PRS!!!

[@jamesnelson1443]

Clean sounds rather hard, but that could be the Friedman amp or a heavy hand by the player

[@DocMartin3]

There is is just no way this guitar is worth $3,000. That’s just insane.

[@progpogs]

@@drsrsv8884 You don't have to be poor to deem a particular guitar not worth it, for me there's plenty of boutique teles around, this isn't worth it's value for me when boutique Andersons are not so far away. You jumping to that conclusion does however tell me you are pretty insecure.

[@progpogs]

@@drsrsv8884 You speculated in your reply, I responded to exactly what you stated plainly, so no that isn't the case whatsoever.

[@ShaneStoneOfficial]

Quit arguing. You’re both entitled to your own opinion. The guitar community is so damn lame sometimes 🤦‍♂️

[@masoncusack]

Super impressed with the high gain tone

[@angryfrenchduck]

Oh my god that black one 🥰

[@allenanderson6430]

What amp(s) was used for this demo?

[@MaestroJericho]

the black dog hair with dual HH and a fixed bridge/PRS trem would be amazing

[@CanalCruisers]

Killer playing 🤯

[@binaryanticommunist1882]

Great, now how about a V-style model?

[@30smsuperstrat]

Great demo! The guitar🤭😌

[@jamesnelson1443]

Yeah baby!!! Bout time!!!

[@colinrobertson4569]

3k?

[@sportster350]

seems cool. But not 3k cool. good luck.

[@jamesnelson1443]

PRS got the controls in right place OUT OF THE WAY

[@ToddTheJoker]

I am not a PRS guy but at first glance and listen I like it! also that boy demoing sure can play geetar! yeehaw...sorry got carried away! ps funny thng is it lresembles the orginal snakehead tele design

[@surfingjojo777]

Lightweight ?

[@PeachGuitars]

Extremely lightweight! Our current NF 53 models weigh around 6lb 14oz. Our Myles Kennedy's weight just under 8lbs!

[@JPiattelli]

Damn they sound unreal.

[@frankie_CALB]

I’m kinda torn… I thought the MK guitar was gonna have hotter output pickups but they sounded a bit “weaker” than the NF guitar. Am I hearing things? I prefer the fatter sounds coming from said NF53.

[@neatspy]

3 grand?

[@frankglad2989]

Yeah, but US Silver Sky is up to $2800 now. Kind of equivalent.

[@ManumusMaximus]

@@frankglad2989almost didn’t believe it, but I sent an checked SS prices. Shame it went from 2300 to 2800.

[@frankglad2989]

Phil from Know Your Gear thinks the goal is to get the Asian guitar prices up to the same level as U.S.

[@JTACTR]

I’m never paying so much for a 3 piece body.

[@xx_HI_xx7]

I just can't get past the look of the neck. If the neck was the same color of the body, then I'd be more on board, but their maple necks always look like they're unfinished and just grabbed a 2×4 at Home Depot and painted some birds on it.

[@babycheesus666]

this mf can play omg

[@crabbybastardguitars9955]

$3,000 or so. I'll look when they put out an SE mode (maybe).

[@GothicXlightning]

they are going to be spamming their TELE-NF53 videos don't they PRS? give me the Black anyways anyday but without silly white stripes and with Ebony neck

[@GraniteSoundtrack]

Cool guitar, good tones but it seems that creativity in guitar designs is going away. I’m thoroughly pleased with the designs from the 50s and 60s, but to say that every other manufacturer has to just copy it now is too much. PRS used to seem like they took inspiration but over the last few years they’ve become more and more another S and T copy. Perhaps these are better but as far as originality goes, no.

[@kevinbridger2989]

Sweet playing.. killer geetar!

[@jamesnelson1443]

LONG OVERDUE!!!

[@wishbone66]

$3,900 CAD 🤣 Keep it.

[@eternalforce116]

Waiting for the SE model haha

[@秉李]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@sharp_guitars2417]

Looks like a knaggs choptank. Just not quite as nice .

[@hillaryknox]

What’s that smell?….oh, of course, it’s the usual angry mobs lighting their torches and heading up to Frankenstein’s castle. New Jack (sorry, I forgot his name) got way better Tele tones than the official PRS video.

[@fallingmanjutsu]

🔥 🍴 here we come!!!!!

[@NoCoverCharge]

Not a fan of that maple neck .. just looks discombobulated

[@Barracuda007]

So PRS are making Tele copies now??

[@keylearning5746]

Yeah some guys with exceptional creativity and imagination were asking for something a cut above the tired old F*nder fare.

[@Squall6575]

Yes, just like Ibanez, Schecter, Xotic, Suhr, Lsl, godin, harley benton, g&L (i could go on)

[@dougmaccoll7564]

$2900 US is way too much for a Tele.....sorry!😮

[@dougmishoe1336]

I own a 2001 McCarty. I generally like PRS. But this guitar doesn’t do it for me. PRS headstocks with the T body…na. Not for me. For those who like it, more power to you.

[@deanmccaskill5495]

Great playing! UGLY guitars!

[@biagiocauso2791]

Heresy, pure heresy

[@jamesnelson1443]

PRS has ripped off Seymour Duncan “TREM-BUCKERS”!!!!!

[@jroobz]

oh man they are ugly guitars

[@99bigjim]

it makes me laugh watching you play twang or blues with Birds on the neck, something is hilariously wrong about that.....get a Fender....
