The SE Paul's Guitar | Demo | PRS Guitars

[@Blueshade]

I bought one! Its just waiting to be opened for Christmas! Never played guitar but hoping to start learning! Faded Blue was the color I chose......😊

[@bobdelair02]

One thing you know for sure now, if it doesn't sound good, the guitar is not to blame 😂

[@GUITARRIFIED]

I hope it inspires you to create something cool!

[@Blueshade]

@@bobdelair02 I am sure I will be terrible in the beginning but I am hopeful that the simple joy it brings me will allow it to progress to sounding decent! 🤪

[@nickbouvy6524]

Good for you. You won’t have a hard to play guitar holding you back. Enjoy.

[@Mark-dx8rr]

​@@Blueshade Anyone who can sit with their instrument and take it seriously is a good musician. Doesn't matter how long you have played, as long as you love it!!

[@BrentAdams]

Love my SE Paul's Guitar!

[@MrDMF567]

That finish is gorgeous

[@calebmorales6288]

Great guitar. I tune mine to D Standard, and the pickups really shine in that lower register.

[@bigjoe5659]

Just ordered one tonight! Love the color!

[@DrOcelot667]

So I walked into a guitar shop in Pittsburgh. N Stuff music, amazing PRS selection. I played almost every SE. I have a Santana SE at home that I love so I am always keeping my eyes peeled and the deals last years were insane. Bravo PRS! I was expecting to gravitate to the Swamp Ash Special, but found to my surprise the Paul’s guitar was my favorite. The feel and tone sold me. The only thing that I didn’t love was the color, and am still waiting on some new options. The current brown, gray, and blue/turquoise aren’t my favorite. A purple mist vibe like the core would be incredible, a dream come true. Even a green or red would be beautiful. Thanks for the work you guys do, it’s a pleasure to have these at such affordable prices. Let’s get some other color options for the Paul’s guitar! I am waiting for the right one!

[@Coop3r79]

Please, could you tell me which is better between Santana and this one? Thanks

[@DrOcelot667]

@@Coop3r79 Depends on your preferences, the weight, neck, and feel are similar in my opinion. Except that the Santana has 24 frets vs 22 with the Paul’s guitar. The tones are different, the Santana has warmer tones overall but you can manipulate the volume nob to get it sounding more single coil like. I think you’d have more versatility overall with the Paul’s guitar but like I said, it’s preference. I think both are great, I just bought a used red Paul’s guitar, can’t wait until it arrives

[@bruncher11]

Me too. Blood orange, the blueishs and charcoal are not to my personal taste. Amethyst, purple or scarlett red were my dream. If some day i should get one and it sounds and plays fine, i will bring it to the luthier to carve a fat thin kinda neck profile out of its fat thin (or something close to my Ibanez AM 93, wich is the most comfortable neck shape to my hands) and leave the neck's back unlaquered for a smooth non-sticky feel. This should cost additional 100 - 150 dollars, and then its a perfect guitar with wonderfull pickups and switching options that weights not more than 3.0 - 3.2 kg (compared to the SE Custom 24 that weights more than 3.5 kg).

[@DrOcelot667]

@@bruncher11 I have since bought a used 2020 Paul’s Guitar in red. It’s gorgeous and a joy to play. Love the neck and pickups. I would still buy another model if they put out the right colors. Same with the Santana line, I’d love some other options than just yellow (although I do dig that too).

[@PaoloC.]

please make a Lettieri SE version 😊

[@TheRealCAPerry]

That would be fun.

[@TheShakour]

best SE ever

[@andrew6889-p5c]

I have a 594 SE and it’s simply brilliant. Kind of want one of these. I bet it’s incredible. PRS isn’t my vibe visually but damn, it’s a fantastic instrument.

[@andrewkaras8001]

I’ve just bought a 2408 ezera verde simply magnificent.

[@codythedoggo7671]

Looks great

[@onlyguitars]

The Paul's Guitar SE was the PRS that made me just become a PRS Fanboy. And I had a 594 core and a Silver sky core before, both fantastic for sure, I have now a SS SE Maple that I love, but for some reason the Paul's Guitar SE plays so so good, and everything about it suited me great. Kid of similar to the original mccarty, which is my favorite PRS model with the DGT I would say. Love the 25 inch scale and simplicity. The 594 the shorter scale length felt a bit to narrow for me in the upper frets for some reason, so the 25 scale length works perfect for me.

[@burts691]

My Next guitar in my line-up. Just waiting for the funds to arrive. 😀

[@SD-cl5mj]

I have played a Paul's guitar before, nice guitar, neck feels like a custom 24 neck to me, but a have played over 20 PRS guitars

[@cmatte82]

I bought a used one a couple of years ago. I thought it would be a great modding platform. I was partially right. It’s great. But it’s so great I haven’t felt the need to mod it. Other the graphtech ratio tuners. All my guitars get those. Anyway it’s one of my favorite guitars. And I have a couple of artist package and WL 594’s. It easily hangs with those.

[@sathira_anuk5179]

Hey, what would you recommend? SE Paul's guitar or S2

[@cmatte82]

@@sathira_anuk5179 I really don’t think you can go wrong with any PRS. I have 11 of them. However none of them are S2’s. Not because I have anything against them. I just haven’t found the right one. Imo they’re just in a weird spot. I’m always looking for deals, mostly on used ones. And you can find a lot of the SE’s in the $500-600 range. And with one exception, it gotten my cores in the $1500-2500 range. I did splurge on a wood library but still got a killer deal. So that puts the $800-1200 S2’s in a weird spot. If I’m patient, I can normally find a core for not much more. Or I can save a couple of hundred and get an SE. Admittedly there are a few S2 models that look pretty cool. Like the studio. I’ve been keeping my eye out for one of the satin versions. Just haven’t seen a deal that’s gotten me to pull the trigger.

[@edmiglia]

The pickups in these are really nice. It's nice to see that there's guitars for around $1000 that don't need any upgrades. The only better ones for the price are Harmony guitars. $1300 for an American guitar built in the Heritage factory. The same building the $1,000,000 Gibsons were built in. The pickups are great in all of them. Nitro finishes too. I don't know another company that's giving you all of that for $1300. Epiphones are $1500 now 😂

[@kebotrans]

Those Harmony’s are amazing do not get the credit they deserve ❤

[@kirkscobey3031]

This is the one that got my attention a couple years back but I’m still happy with my stripped down Tremonti so haven’t done any buying

[@MrDrewseph]

Sounds pretty compressed, I'm guessing it sounds more open and realistic in person

[@MrPhotonjockey]

What’s the signal chain in the intro and outro?

[@geraldsambandilla1929]

When will i be able to have a PRS. 😔

Wish there was a lefty version

[@eliaslopez4224]

Weed need a semi-hollow one 😅

[@OmarChouikha]

please tell me there is a left handed model

[@LeeGee]

Will these be as impossible to purchase as an Archon an Archon?

[@daniellowry660]

No they have them pretty regularly in retail stores

[@michaelpeila9221]

I thought The SE Paul’s Guitar TCI pickups were split, not tapped…?

[@peterwu8471]

make a four string

[@jasong546]

Playing reminds me of animals nice guitar

[@MisterChange-]

I bought Yesterday one of these Guitars. Is it normal that if i turn down the volume from 10 to 8 i have a massive lost about the high frequents?

[@BillGetsItDunn]

Unfortunately that what happens with cheaper pots. If you solder in a treble bleed, you'll retain all of the highs. It's a must have mod in my opinion.

[@MisterChange-]

@@BillGetsItDunn it Is normal in this guitars? :0

[@Jimmyprice258]

Paul hates us leftys, why are we so limited on selection? We should have color options like right handed models.

[@matthewgustafson7737]

We represent 10% of the population. Its not economical.

[@th3m1ke]

PRS literally expanded by SE Lefty line by like 1000% this year.

[@mike1967sam]

I've had a bunch of PRS SE guitars and I had three PRS USA and I hated them all, especially the PRS 594 McCarty. They're beautiful guitars, the only guitar more beautiful than the USA PRS models is the Gibson Les Paul. The pick ups Paul makes sound incredible. I've played PRS SE models with the stock pick ups and they sounded great but I hate the neck shape, I hate the choice Paul made for a 10 inch radius. Everything is great about PRS except the neck, I can play 9.5 inch radii on my Fender Tele and Strat, I feel super comfortable playing my Gibsons, my Les Paul, my SG or my ES-335 with a thick rounded C shape and a 12 inch radius, but in my mind there's just something wrong with the choice of a 10 inch radius. I'll play 9.5, 12 inch and 14 inch and even 16 inch like on my Charvel but never 10 inch.

[@slayer-kq7hv]

Just bought the PRS swamp ash special put locking tuners on it plays like a 3000.00 $ guitar cant recommend this guitar any more buiteful especially the blue iris color 😅

[@earthlydescent]

I wish you guys would stop using the Sonzera amp to test these guitars. It sounds mediocre frankly. I've heard it described as a wet blanket tone. I wasn't impressed with my twenty minute playthrough with it.

[@mike1967sam]

1:10 "...is a fantastic guitar player ..." remember what you just said, "fantastic" ...I'm a former professional guitarist, essentially I'm a nobody, I'm not famous but I did have a contract with the label BMG as the guitarist for a band I whose name I won't disclose. If I played guitar like Paul does nobody would have ever hired me and I'm just an average guitar player.

[@DiscolorBlind]

He’s not a fantastic guitar player.
