‘Versatile’ is a term that gets banded around in the musical instrument industry perhaps a little too frequently. Often, we find ourselves playing our favourite guitars, loving the tones we’re able to coax out of them for our regular guitar playing needs. But, what happens when your band mates elect a new song for the set list, or you decide to venture in a new musical direction, with just one guitar at your disposal? You’re going to need an instrument that can truly go anywhere & catch all.
In our opinion, two of the guitars that best exemplify true versatility are the HSS-loaded Strat-style platform, utilised here by Suhr, and PRS’ groundbreaking hybrid in the form of their Custom 24/08. One builds on the classic Fender platform developed in the ‘50s, expanding its abilities by adding a humbucking pickup for smoother, raunchier distorted tones, while the other pedals back on the classic twin-humbucker setup, with very capable coil tapping options. Two different approaches, with similarly flexible results.
In today’s video, we set out to answer which one works best for your own personal tonal needs, as well as which can ultimately be crowned the true champ of versatility!
Let us know in the comments which one works for you - do you gravitate more to the Suhr or the PRS?

The cool thing about playing is how different we all play. I started on a fender strat, became a GAS junkie, decided I need all of these other guitars, built a large collection, and now realize the Fender strat is all I need for my electric needs. I guess its no different than everyday life - you spend a lifetime acquiring things and then reach an age where you want to get rid of what you dont use.

A strat type is what I started on. I went through the grunge thing in the 90', got a bunch of guitars like Mustangs and Jaguars, and Jazzmasters, but I also had an American strat. Well, over the years, the strat is the only one that comes to every gig, the others just kind of rotate in depending on whats on the set.

For many years I shrugged off "PRS-mania". Then, I thought - why not give them a try - which led to experimenting and dabbling with a few SE's over the years, my 'ho-hum' experiences with those SEs became 'further proof' of my claims - I sold them and moved on. But the praise kept on and on and on from many of those I admired. Not being in the budget for a core model, I was at a local shop one day a few years ago and picked up an S2...the 'PRS thing' started to click. I bought it. Then I sold it only to buy another model and then I bought a Vela semi-hollow. Now, I am angling to get a CE24. The fit, finish, the rolled edges, the lack of fret sprouting, the playability, stay-in-tuneness, intonation, all always - always - always SPOT ON with every model I've played or owned above the SEs. My small collection of 'others' is being over-taken solely by PRS guitars. This once avid denier, is now a believer.

Another superb demo from Jack. If you want the typical Strat tones in single coil, the Suhr with ML pickups will do the trick. The PRS, although the enhanced number of selections, is more PRS-signature like: very clean, pristine tones that some might call sterile (that you can compensate with the tone pot and EQ on the amp). Personally, I prefer the DGT in that respect. Both great guitars, my preference going to the Suhr configuration.

The most versatile set up, would be a Superstrat guitar with a H-S-H configuration, that also has a coil split mode for the humbuckers.Basically, Kikio Loureiro´s Ibanez sig. model. Or you get a Superstrat with a H-S-Mini Humbucker (Twin-Rails) set up and add a coil-split for the bridge humbucker. The Twin-Rails is basically like a singlecoil, minus the hum and with more output for high gain leads.

I have quite a few guitars as I started buying in the 70s, including both PRS and Suhr’s . I have 2 Suhr’s I gravitate to, a CustomT and the modern. Occasionally I’ll pull out an old Tele because of the soap bar. Custom PRS and Suhr’s - you are not going to go wrong with either. It’s an investment , but you’ll find yourself gravitating to them. If this is your first guitar, or in your first 10 guitars, I’d hold off - just so when you do buy one, you can appreciate how good these are compared to your other guitars 🎸 enjoy !!

PRS Custom 24 is a nice guitar, but I bought a used PRS CE24 and a Silver sky for about 3300.00 total. I get all of the tones and playability that both of these guitars have. The custom 24 is about 3800.00 new. They're great guitars but I think you can find options that are less expensive but still give you the versatility.

Exactly my two weapons of choice. Love em both :) for the cover guys both are excellent choices. Despite its flashier looks, however, I need to say that the PRS seems a bit more „stable“ to me. That is, the neck doesn’t move unless you want it to, intonation stays spot on, nothing gets in the way of the right hand... however, some fragility is predisposed by a strat‘s construction and the Suhr reduces it to a minimum. Just my 2 cents :)

Jack makes some of the best demos on KZbin IMHO. Shows off the full range of a guitars capabilities without defaulting to pentatonic noodling or inane chatter the whole time. I gig an hss strat as my main guitar live, but the amazing splits on PRS guitars make them so versatile! A CE24 is next on my list and even though I swore I'd never pay $2000 for a strat, this video got me thinking about buying a Suhr. PS it should be noted that the Dr Z Maz18 makes just about any guitar sound good. A $400 Squier would sound phenomenal with Jack playing it through that amp lol

Mine is a PRS S2 Custom 24. No fancy switches for pickups, just a 3 way switch and a push pull coil split. Totals 6 alternatives to start from. Used in very good condition my version/year are going for about $1,100 on Reverb (sold listings only). There are 35th editions of the S2 Custom 24 available for a little more, but this one does the job. I'm not afraid to take it out and use it for that. Lots of value for the money.
@wendelllaffin240
@wendelllaffin240 3 жыл бұрын
they are both very similar regarding versatility and yet completely different in terms of tone signature. I love the Suhr for its refinement of the classic S style guitar with its playability (necks are like butter to me), and the tone is more subdued on the top end (the pups are useable at all volume levels which I can't with any fender)... its Stratty but with added fullness. Then there is the PRS that has this bigger sound from those hum buckers that really speaks to me (EQ'd better than a LES PAUL IMO) as they are clear and yet not overdone with any particular frequency, there is a special vibe with these that sets them apart from anyone else... I wish people would stop saying they are in between a Gibson and a Fender... they are not in between the big two... they are 1 of the big 3... for others to say we sit between a Gibson and a PRS or between a PRS and a Fender... add the versatility to these and they are great... however I own a Suhr Ian Thornley S Roughneck and I am super happy with that, however I could easily own both and be very happy.

Great video. In passing - if we all had just one guitar that did everything we wouldn't buy so many guitars, and we LOVE buying guitars. Also, sometimes more is less. I love my PRS Custom 24, deliberately avoiding the 35th anniversary edition, and it is too versatile. I don't think I use all 5 switch positions, and I am not sure I have ever played anything in the middle position. Adding two switches would be too much for an old guy like me. There are tone and volume knobs to play with too.

Although prs guitars are stunningly built, every one of them I’ve played has always left me feeling cold. I find them a bit sterile. But on the plus side for the prs. They have their own shape and style. Where the suhr is too much like a fender. If I was buying any guitar other than a fender or Gibson. My preference is Patrick James Eggle guitars.

Picking up on the comment below - I added a push/pull tone pot to my 513, so I can also get neck and bridge (or all pickups together) tones in addition to the rest. This makes it a 519 and a true 'Swiss army knife' of a guitar. The only thing I'd like to improve is to introduce noiseless single coil pickups but as they are proprietary, it's impossible to achieve. Never been a fan of Suhr guitars as (as far as I'm aware) the nut width is limited to 1 5/8" (ditto Tom Anderson guitars). Too narrow for me.

My forever guitar is my Pacifica. It has a humbucker in the bridge and P90 in the neck. When I roll the volume back on the P90 it starts to sound like a Strat. I want one with a tremolo and two P90’s. Doesn’t sound versatile but P90’s cover a lot of sounds from humbucker to Fender single coils. The two guitars you picked are the industry gold standard.

For me the difference in preference between high gain and low gain, both come down to attack. I thought I might prefer the attack of the suhr for cleans and the prs for gain, and I was right. Maybe it's my bias going in, but I just think stratty attack is good for sweet cleans, and biting attack of a set neck, mahogany body is better for high gain. I could just be talking shite, idk.*edit: oh look, you just said exactly the same thing at the end.

It´s funny that many people associate the PRS Cu with blues or "Dad-Rock", when 20 years ago it was extremely popular among alt-rock, prog and metal players. The guys from Opeth use PRS for decades, same with the guys from Alter Bridge, Mark Holcomb from Periphery, the guitarplayer from Linkin Park (sorry can recall his name) and many pop-punk players. A PRS Cu 24, plugged into a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, was essentially the tone of the late 90´s-early 00´s.

Great a/b video. Good chops in your playing. I like the open chord rhythm work. The Dr. Z is a good choice for amp in this comparison.

Personally i preferred all the tones from the HSS “Strat”. Just sounded more “rounded” to me where the PRS sounded a bit thin by comparison. No doubting the PRS is a great guitar too though.

Listening to these guitars through a computer and at best a home hi-fi, is nothing like hearing the guitars in person through dedicated amps. Just saying...

The only thing I have ever heard, in my entire life, ever, sound like a single coil in the neck, strangely enough, was a single coil in the neck. I love me some humbuckers in the neck, some glorious tones to be had . Never hear a single coil in the neck sound like a humbucker. had lot few suhr's and a few PRS's really nice guitars. But for me they are very very different guitars

The strat. Always. It is lighter and more comfortable to play. Besides, you got those in between sounds that you cannot get from any other model.

Agree on the HSS strat and the PRS tremolo model as the 2 most versatile designs. Personally I would pick a Fender or Grosh over Suhr. For the PRS I would take a McCarty (or a DGT if you must have a tremolo) over a Custom 22/24; they sound and play much better.

Get one! PRS custom 24 was my main guitar for 13 years before I got a Suhr HSS Antique last year. I wouldn’t say it replaced it, but I absolutely love it and have to split my time equally between them

I have a Pauls Guitar which is same as that C24 except the floating bridge. Love the split coils! PRS also made SE HSS and HSH guitars in or around 2008 for anyone who wants both.
