PRS Guitars USA Factory Tour: Stevensville, Maryland

[@StreetsOfVancouverChannel]

Whoever filmed/edited/rendered this video did first rate work... the audio is particularly superb.

[@gunshow86de]

I've watched so many factory tours over the years, this is easily the best one yet.

[@lieutenantdan2217]

Proves that anything prs releases is quality

[@JoeCubicle]

Video editor here. I have told countless numbers of people that the audio is way more important than the video of a quality production. You can have many video editing mistakes forgiven if the audio is good/great.

[@_RLP]

Agreed. Great, great tour video.

[@natfingerboard]

@@JoeCubicle I'm not a professional video editor but I'm a music producer and an "audio/visual content" enthusiast, and I agree 100%, good, clear, well-leveled, mixed and mastered audio can make mediocre footage not only bearable but very enjoyable, especially for voice-overs like this.

[@andydillard2089]

I grew up in Stevensville Maryland where they make those amazing guitars, I bought a SE for my Nephew who graduated the Air Force Academy and then went on to become a F-16 pilot, Paul was so kind to sign it to him and and congratulating him, I just bought my first one a SE A40 acoustic, what an amazing looking and sounding guitar, thanks to the whole team at PRS!

[@prsguitars]

Thanks for the love, Andy!

[@destinyreturns4885]

After watching this I feel even more proud that my PRS is my go to guitar....

[@HooksBill]

Watching this video, I thought about how satisfied I am with my violin amber sunburst PRS CE24 hanging before me on my wall. I've played it three times today alone and it probably won't be the last. It's a guitar you just don't want to put down. It feels great, it looks great, it plays great and it performs great. What more could you ask from a guitar maker? PRS has achieved greatness. They've earned it. With all that I still had no idea just how much scrutiny these guitars were under making their way out the factory doors.

[@kylemyers8415]

Me too. I love this company

[@dickderilict3036]

Paul's wife was one of the nurses when I broke my back.She was really sweet.He,s a lucky guy.That was in 1982.I think he was just getting going with the guitars..Glad it worked out for them..God Bless..

You have just disclosed your low IQ and your total lack of guitar knowledge. Actually this type of product is perfect for you.

PRS puts gibson and fender in the mud

[@jackbinkleymusic]

@@RUARI-mi1yt personally I still prefer my Les Paul custom 57 to my 594 single cut.But they do combine the best of both worlds giving the tremelo and fingerboard radius of a fender with the Gibson-esqu headstock, rosewood and mahogany. They definitely are interesting guitars and personally I love the finishing. Especially the whale blues and faded colors.

[@RH-5482]

I've been a Gibson guy for over 40 years, but I have to admit, my 2009 CU24 has been the most stable guitar I have ever owned. It feels solid, comfortable to play and rarely goes out of tune.

[@SamGlasser]

Had always wanted a PRS, from the first time I saw one, The quality was dripping from those on display. Just bought one after several decades of drooling,. SO beautiful and so nice to play.

[@fkarlh]

Took the tour in Nov 2019. Incredible. These people love what they do and take pride in their work. I pre-ordered an S2 CU24 35th ann. Can't hardly take the waiting. If you have a chance to take the tour ... do it. After watching a bunch of video tours like this one, seeing it in person was that much more special!

[@cliess]

'96 Customer 24 owner here. Can tell you that even back then, the guitars were made with love. It plays like an absolute dream, and still looks as amazing today as it did nearly 25 years ago when I bought it from a little shop in Windsor, Ontario.....

[@synonyx]

This is amazing. I love when companies showcase their pride in a product.

[@RiffKing719]

When you pick one up you literally FEEL the craftsmanship

[@kristopherdetar4346]

I might own an American made PRS someday if I sell my 6 Indonesian PRS guitars. They do it right in that factory because each one of the 6 Asian built PRS guitars I own are very stable and stay in tune year after year. If they sit in the case for months I can pull one out and it is still in tune according to my electronic tuner. That is fantastic in my opinion. Keep up the great work PRS !

[@jerrywatt6813]

My 95 custom 24 is the best guitar in my collection and still like new on that day I bought it after thousands of hours playing and miles on the road thanks PRS !

[@imaxximus]

I have a treasured 513 that is beyond amazing, and recently had the great pleasure to meet Paul at Righteous Guitars in Atlanta, and he signed it. Wow, right? I love seeing the story of where it was made and more importantly, by whom it was made. It’s in a great home. My cup runneth over. Thank you!

[@audiophileman7047]

PRS is setting the standard for well made guitars. It is truly a team effort with a great deal of forethought and attention to detail. Building one of the best guitars in the world has just got to be a satisfying experience for the builder and the player. 👍👍👍

[@defsantiago]

Been playing Paul Reed Smith Guitars since 1996. Absolutely hands down the best instruments for a working musician money can buy. They’re second to none. ❤️

[@ibanezman1025]

I just bought a 1997 CE24 and it’s one of the best guitars I’ve ever played. It just feels quality, it plays like silk, and sounds rich. I wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I do but you can just tell how much attention to detail was put into it.

[@Kalebmation]

My life goal: quit my IT career and start my new life in Stevensville learning every facet of making the best guitars in the world and become a part of this process.

[@iganpparamarta8813]

Kaleb Burkhart please do. Learn the process and skill. And then build your own brand, Burkhart guitars. Make $1000-1500 guitars that put bigger brands triple the price to shame. Make a proof that as long as the wood is good no matter the type or where it came from it will sound the same, and let the pickups do the singing. I’ll be the first to order.

[@Dstingah]

Don’t lol, I work in the same business park. They never pay vendors on time and are always balancing between being broke and barely paying their bills.

Wow!....I’m totally impressed!

[@luisbrazilva]

As a proud owner of a few guitars I can honestly say that the best guitar I own, my go to when I want perfection, is my PRS SC245. What a great instrument! Thank you to all of you over there doing an amazing meticulous job. Keep it going!!!

[@lvrxplt397]

I own 4 PRS guitars (3 guitars 1 bass) and am always sooooo impressed with the quality and beauty of these pieces of art! I own an SE, a Custom22, a McCarty, and a Gary Grainger 5 string bass. The bass was my final guitar. No other bass will EVER come close to the sound, playability, or comfort that bass gives me. I hope that one day one of my kids will take that bass and make it their own..(after Im gone!)

[@snoek1971]

What a beautiful, well made documentary. It has a zen-like quality. Well done guys!

[@stephanclintoncourtneyholl7824]

Yes a very good Documentary great work, and quality

[@ryanburchett8455]

It is really cool that the people who make your guitar literally put their names on it. You know who put their effort into making one of the best instruments around.

[@swervature]

Thank you for this. I made it to Gibson in Memphis one time, and the last tour of the day had already started. i never got to go back before they closed. I love the amount of dedication you put into making sure it's a true PRS. Thanks, again.

[@charlesflint9048]

I’ve just ordered a PRS hollow body standard in fire red burst. My partner said ‘haven’t you got enough guitars?’, but when I showed her the pics. she said ‘Go for it’. I can’t wait for this; I have mainly solid guitars, an SG and a Telecaster, also a Hagstrom with a semi hollow body with one f hole. This should complete my collection and satisfy me (for a while).

Dont have words for those incredible people who have the job of making guitars for millions of people like me ¡ i had a Standard 22 wide thin neck bought brand new in 1997 from Mandolin Brothers in 1997 an INCREDIBLE awesome vintage cherry. Then in 2002 i bought a Custom 22 Wide fat neck 3 color sunburst. Both guitars had circle inlays. I miss em both¡😪 awesome guitars¡❤

[@marc_leblanc]

They've mastered the flame tops imo. I just love the way they look. A PRS is gonna be my next purchase I think. First I need to recover from buying a Kemper Profiler tho. lol

[@zososhep]

Loved This! I have watched every PRS tour video from 1985 to this one and the one thing that never changes is their dedication to crafting the best possible instrument with the best possible materials! My original pre-lawsuit singlecut(10 top w/birds) has been my #1 guitar since the moment I picked it up over 19 years ago. I recently added a 2019 Custom 24 which is my #2. Between these two incredible guitars I now have the capability to produce any tone I want or need to! PRS helps me capture the spirit, soul of music! They are simply the best at what they do...period!

[@ChrisD_GTR]

[@garinakbar1907]

PRS guitars are just perfect... John Mayer, Vernon Reid and Wes Borland inspired me to pick up one of these guitars

[@mattryan2489]

I own a McCarty 594. Phenomenal guitar. Clearest humbucking tone I’ve ever heard, stays in tune as well as a tele and is an ergonomic marvel. Can’t find a single complaint.

[@zacharyhandcraftedguitars]

That is because you are a hack and know nothing about guitars. The quintessential PRS consumer. You are also a Beta male with low T.

[@frozendivots1564]

Well Zachary, is that how you talk to a possible future customer?

[@zacharyhandcraftedguitars]

@@frozendivots1564 I don't subscribe to the corporate, commercial system of doing things. I build every guitar for myself and if I feel that someone qualifies and deserve it, I will be honored to have the play it. The process of every guitar is that I dream it and then I create it. This way what you hear from me is unfiltered and completely sincere. I give your the truth. I am not a cheesy salesman like Paul is. I am a guitar builder.

[@frozendivots1564]

Zachary Handcrafted Guitars all guitar builders are good in my book. Great guitars everywhere. I have nothing against Paul, he did what he wanted and good for him. I have been buying guitars since the early 80’s, I own almost all of them. So many great guitars out there. No reason to hate...

[@zacharyhandcraftedguitars]

@@frozendivots1564 No hate here but you are an SJW. The people are PRS are NOT guitar builders and neither is Paul. Paul is a cheesy salesman. You can buy all the CNC made guitars you want, you will never bond with any one of them. They are inorganic and the human rejects it. They are sterile and lifeless, even if their plastic coating is flawless. Wake up Normie. Your world is shut down because of your ignorance. Next come your shackles.

[@jazzaxx3904]

After 15 years, i decided to start playing again. I decided to buy an PRS SE Custom 24, Charcoal Burst. I can´t wait to hold it in my hands and start playing and learning again. And someday when i´m better i will buy me the Handcrafted from Maryland for sure. Such a nice work you guys do there. After i seen this video i saw the one from Indonesia and i´m sure i did the right choice to buy the SE.

[@davidstanden480]

Jazzaxx, same here, 15 years ago I started and gave up, lost interest and started a family. Started up again on my 'old' Epiphone, but looking to buy an SE or a genuine PRS. Especially after watching this video.

[@cplaw3]

Was on the fence about buying a Les Paul or a 594...went with PRS. Right out of the box the McCarty fit and finish was superior and the thing just felt like it was made personally for me. Great guitars

I wish these guys were in Carolina .that's where I'd want to work..to be around guitars all day seeing them ,smelling the wood seems like a wonderful job for a guitar guy.

[@kylemyers8415]

I loved my CE24 for the exact reasons that this video shows how great the factory is. Mine was recently stolen but I went to a store today to look for a replacement and the best guitars in the whole store were all PRS by far! Even the used instruments were all above and beyond in quality and tone of anything else I’ve played. It feels silly to say but honestly it makes playing other guitars half the fun!

[@djameloveskyFILMS]

I didn't even notice that it was 26min . Great work

[@jan_07]

I initially thought PRS were expensive weird guitars. I was kind of forced to buy one because I needed a 24 fret US-made guitar, then I set it up for the first time according to the specifications from the owner’s manual… I have guitars from the usual and traditional big US brands (Gibson, Fender, etc), and none of them conform with their supplied user manuals right off the box, but only PRS got it spot on first time! It remained that way for years without any formal trip to the local guitar service centres for routine setup. This just blew my mind! From then on I will only choose PRS for my future purchases. The QA on these guitars are just insanely good and just what I expect when talking about that passionate American quality and attention to detail. 👌

[@spyderlogan4992]

One(1) month for the neck, ONE MONTH...and this is why PRS is best on the planet. A neck that's stable for the lifetime of the instrument.

[@jacobsmith1877]

Spyder Logan Adamovic Basses has a similar quality control. They wait for 6 months between rough cutting and assembly, and another 6 months between assembly and finishing

[@IvanChernenko]

But best guitar brand is Gibson

[@RandellVandergriff]

@@IvanChernenko No. But I like them. No they are not.

[@camai75]

I just purchased my first PRS Core, a Custom 22...its immaculate. It sounds, and plays better than anything ive ever touched. My other two high end guitars (for me anyway) are ESP E-II's, which I love, but the PRS is just hands above. The resonance, the feel, the frets, the playability.. Its all just a notch above. Kudos PRS, such a fabulous instrument.

[@danibasauri01]

I have 3 of them, I’ve been to 2016 Experience and have met Paul twice. And I know I’ll attend another Experience and will buy more guitars. I love the perfection, the attention to detail, and the instrument per se, comfortability and unique sound. There’s no other brand for me.

[@janetcastro6533]

I just purchased a zach Myers guitar in blue. It’s my first prs guitar. I can’t wait to get it on Friday. It’s my dream guitar.

[@motorheadmaddness1643]

I own a 2009 Emerald green custom 24 one pc Ten top, and a 2011 acoustic/electric angelus, I have owned and played a majority of the top names play during the 80's and 90's. when I stopped playing I told myself if or when I started playing again I would own the cream of the the crop! It's not about how much it cost but how much you value your investment and the love of owning and playing a quality instrument. I was that boy who look from a far and said one day I will own one! and wouldn't change it, and inspired me me to buy my PRS angelus. Thank You, Paul for your dedication of perfection and the team that builds them. Much Respect! Wayne Butkus.

Big fan of Paul's work, here. I can't bond with the guitars, for some reason, but they are great instruments and the quality and innovation the company stands for are second to none. Also, the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen was the graveyard that came out earlier this year, in red and grey and with the crow and all... Very Alan Poe-esque. Superb. Truly a work or art. Keep up the good work. Cheers.

[@patricksantana3337]

Hey Bob, I too have many fond memories of PRS from the very earliest days at Virginia avenue in Annapolis. Amazing that they started from virtually nothing and went head to toe with the legendary giants in the guitar industry. Actually created a whole new standard for excellence. Good to see your name after many years!

[@guitarbobification]

@@patricksantana3337 Pat - great to hear a friendly voice from the past! Hope you and your family are safe and well. I retired in 2017 and began building guitars as a hobby. I actually just posted a youtube video last week on my most recent build (just google bob ellenson music - there are 11 videos). Its been a fun experience and very rewarding. All the best to you!

[@patricksantana3337]

Thanks Bob. I checked out a couple of your videos. I never knew of these talents. Good stuff. I hope you don't mind if I bore you with some history of my past with PRS. I had a customer who had a woodworking shop in College Park. His main guy there was named Joe Knaggs. Joe and I became friends. I introduced Joe to some of the automotive urethane clearcoats and he liked them. He called me one day and said he had went to work for this small guitar manufacturer called PRS in Annapolis. Joe introduced me to Paul and Paul started a test on the Glasurit 923-85 clearcoat. He fell in love with the look and told me to never reveal to anyone the product he was using. He then switched to the Glasurit for all clearcoated guitars. Being a guitar guy yourself, I am sure you know that Joe Knaggs went on create his own high-end guitar company that seems to be doing very well. I visited him two years ago in his shop on the eastern shore. Thanks again for the well wishes and wish the same for you and your family.

Blame it on Carlos Santana. Fell in love with his sound and PRS birds inlays guitar, so I got myself a Korean SE 24 PRS flat body red one to fuel my imagination to play like Carlos. I think that the Koreans did a good job, and I believe that one day it may become a guitar collectors treasure? The all in price I paid was $500.00 Canadian.
