[@elliotthall5543]

Paul, if you have any sense at all, and I know you do, keep Brian doing your demos until the day he says he's done. There just isn't a better player/demonstator of what a guitar really sounds like than Brian. When I got my S2 594, it sounded EXACTLY like I expected it to sound...just not as well played. Brian, beautiful playing as always. Thank you both.

[@TheMcQueen92]

PLEASE do a SE version of this! I think that would be a top seller! Hit that like button if you want PRS to do a SE version of this!

[@KrenarCilkuGuitar]

Heck yes shqipe, let's hope for an SE version! Përshëndetje!

[@garfield2742]

😁 if everything good also build on SE then how they can sell the highend series 👍

[@TheMcQueen92]

@garfield then why does the se custom 24 exist? Or all other low budget guitars? Those go to a different range of market, people that can buy core will buy core and maybe se too, but people who buy se will never buy core, and the reason why is easy, if they had the money, they would not look at the se ones ;) Thank you for your comment, have a nice day and enjoy music! :)

[@ryanandring2688]

This is hardly available and already sold out from what I’ve seen I don’t know why they’d want to make one to sell for less

[@alebo0]

@@garfield2742 Custom 24, Standard 24, Paul's Guitar, Hollowbody 2 Piezo, Regular Hollowbody 2, these are all great SE's with high end counterparts. That doesn't affect the sale. It only helps the sale. The people with money want the quality, therefore, they buy the higher end guitars, such as the core models or even PS. Those on a budget buy the cool SE versions, which saves them money, but also takes a little bit of the quality away. If you use that brain of yours, you'll see that sales will only increase if they make SE versions of every model.

This guy is such a clean player. Very precise and articulate, but never dry or formulaic. I respect him more and more with each demo. That said, this guitar sounds amazing! Really interesting pickup combination.

The narrowfields have my attention. This is definitely on my radar.

[@JV-rx3ov]

I highly recommend them. I've got one of the 2012 Studio models & it is amazing. The only difference with the new one & mine is that mine has a 57/08 in the bridge & the new one has a 58/15LT.

Good job at the Launch Party RJ. The narrow fields remind me of the pups in Les Paul Deluxe I always wanted. That and the Silver Sky mood ring paint job stood out for me

[@italoop7850]

Fantastic guitar! Amazing...beauty, art, soul and tone! And Bryan is a true master on these guitars!

[@seanthomasmusic]

PRS needs to give you the opportunity to plug your own music here because, DUDE, you have some serious soul, talent, skill, heart, chops, whatever you want to call it. You have "it" whatever "it" is. Kind of reminds me of Chris Buck the way you play, but your own unique style. You both are alike in your attention to detail and intention when playing single notes. Really making it sing here. Just a joy to listen to the music!

[@roychan2160]

Watching this as I'm playing my desert island guitar a 2011 513. After first set up didn't need to do anything since besides contact cleaner on switches and pots. Good thing about PRS is that once I found mine I feel I don't need any other but doesn't mean I can't ogle at their new stuff. I'm just a normal cover band musician so can't afford to get another PRS but sure glad I made the jump to it. I would advise every musician out there to look for a model which suits their needs and give it a try. Sure beats the offering from the other 2 big companies.

[@youKnowWho3311]

I play a 513 and absolutely adore it!

[@roychan2160]

@@youKnowWho3311I always thought PRS only had 2 humbuckers. If I had known earlier I probably would have bought the earlier rosewood neck ones but as it is mine stills kick ass.

[@8sigreg]

I have a 509 and it's a great guitar too. I also have a Studio, and the Studio's sound leans a bit more toward a P-90 than the 509. I have four PRS and they're the only guitars I'd immediately replace if something happened to them. They all feel and sound great and are extremely stable, unlike the "2 big company" guitar's I've had; I can take a PRS out of its case after a month and it's still in tune.

[@youKnowWho3311]

[@roychan2160]

@@8sigreg You're lucky I can only afford 1 PRS lol. Between the 513 and a EBMM Luke 3 HSS these are the only guitars I use now. If anything were to happen to these I'll definitely replace with the same but as is I think when price of the studio comes out it'll probably be double that of a Luke 3 but pre owned 513s are still affordable.

It's a Strat killer IMO. I have the previous version of the Studio and play it more than any of my guitars because it sounds fat when you open it up into a distorting amp, and cleans up and gets sparkly when you turn it down.

I own a 2011 Ten Top in Eriza Verde. Great guitar with great sound. Pickups are great. I bought it used but I was told it was never played. It was from a collector's stash, and it certainly was in new/mint condition. I payed around $3650 dollars for the guitar. I certainly have no complaints. A beautiful looking and sounding instrument.

[@grantkgoacher]

I hope they keep making this one past 2021 because I love this guitar, I just don’t think I’ll be able to afford one this year. One thing thats missing that should’ve been on here is another push pull that turns on the Neck pickup so you can get neck and bridge or all 3. Otherwise, fantastic guitar!

[@8sigreg]

You could probably accomplish that with a minor swap of the volume control with one that has a pull switch which turns on the front pickup. Check with your guitar tech first, but it seems like it would be easy.

[@LostaraYil666]

Wow those narrowfields, like a perfect robust single coil without any of the off putting frequencies

[@Almonzo246]

Hey PRS, will be possible to have the signal chain in the description for future demos?

[@timarnold1024]

I had this guitar when it was out in 2012ish. I sold it because I struggled with the middle pickup, I kept hitting it. Guitar sounded amazing though. I loved the narrowfield pickups so much I got a mccarty with them in (25th anniversary) . They respond so well to volume control and get more singlecoil sounding when rolling volume down. Shame he doesn't demo that! I would like to try this guitar again as my technique is probably better and I don't play with a pick very often. 😀
