I would recommend this guitar to anyone who is not on budget and wants someone of the best tone you can get out of a guitar. This guitar will give you that is spades. They come in new for right at around $700, which is actually a good price for a PRS guitar. So this is the budget friendly for PRS standards, but not budget for mine.
These guitars have been discontinued for a while but Paul Reed Smith does have some newer models available that basically are exactly the same body style as this instrument. I suggest going with one of those or if you're really looking for something used and you might be off on one of these on the classified sections of forms or auction ...
This is the good kind of signature guitar. Bernie actually plays these unlike a lot of PRS endorsers. A lot of them have PRS SE signature models but play the made in the USA model. Bernie says this guitar is absolutely fine and he gigs with it. It does not have any crazy markings on it that make it stand out either. Just the Bernie Marsden signa...
The PRS Singlecut is a great Les Paul Alternative. Something like this is a great substitute for a Les Paul Studio or something similar to that. The quality on these guitars is well above their price on the market. While this is a newer model with a newer finish you can get older models in different finishes for about 400 dollars which is a grea...
These guitars you can find pretty easily as well as many other great sounding Paul Reed Smith guitars. Many of them have pretty much a very similar sound to them. I've played a number of Paul Reed Smith guitars and most of them really sound pretty much the same to one another. They do have different feel to them and the neck can be a little bit ...
The great thing about PRS guitars is that they are always evolving and improving and changing their models. This is also a bad thing because a model might have something you like and they may get rid of that individual part you like. With this guitar I like the fine tuner wrap around bridge that came on this model. The current single cut model t...
I should also mention, it goes out of tune fairly often and the factory strings don't do it any favors. How does PRS sell these? This seems more like a $300 guitar at best when you get it in your hands. They look nice on the wall but once you plug in the guitar is another story. I would recommend you get a real Tremonti or find another SE mo...
If you're a fan of Mark Tremonti, Alter Bridge, or Creed than this is probably going to be a guitar that you can lean towards. However if your not into signature gear PRS does makeLles Paul style guitars which are very similar to this without the signature on top of the guitar price. So therefore if you're into Mark and his sounds than t...
This guitar is a great alternative to getting an Epiphone or something with P90s. Now many guitars come with P90s nowadays and if they do they are usually vintage reissues that cost and arm and a leg. Even if you arent really looking for a P90 guitar its something you should consider. Not many people rock the P90s any more and its a sound that i...
There use to be a Tremonti model with a huge silly logo on the body. Im glad they are now making it just in black. You dont have to look like a billboard to play a good guitar. If you are a metal player this is probably the best PRS for you. Tremonti is a good player and know what a good guitar makes. If you are looking for a good singlecut PRS ...
