-Mahogany body / maple table
Channel:
Maple-
-Rosewood
-24 Frets
Mike
-2 Humbuckers pickups in the PRS
Vintage bass bridge in
HFS (Hot fat scream) to handle
-Selector 5 positions
UTILIZATION
The neck is thin enough and pleasant touch, no problem for access to acute, you can place these licks without much problem even on the last frets.
The guitar is very slight (a little less than a strat but much more than a Les Paul).
This gives a good sound of the first connection.
This is a guitar that sounds very good even unplugged.
The only complaint I would choose the potentiometer for the selection of microphones, which requires the precision when you want to go to intermediate in position to forget the passage between two micro rapid licks.
I put an 8 because the selectors is really difficult to manage. I thought to myself with time but not ...
SOUNDS
I use a Mesa Boogie F30.
What I like is the versatility of sound.
You can have all the desired sounds by playing with the settings.
In the HFS splitant I can get a sound close to a strat with a little less slamming (but hey you can not have everything) and sounds very hot on Vintage Bass humbucker. I can even get close to a half of the fat body in playing the tone knob.
Even with big disco (Mesa), the sound is clean and can distinguish between different harmonics.
After 3 years I still continued to find new sounds.
This is clearly the strong points of this guitar
What I prefer is the Vintage Bass Split on for Slap; With a little compression over one the impression that the sound is reworked in the studio.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 3 years.
I esseyé lot of strats, les paul and the Musicman, and even other models including the PRS CU24. But I had a crush on this one.
What I like most is the versatility of sounds.
It is true that the price is quite high, but the cost of quality.
I would do the same NIOHC without hesitation.
