PRS SE Custom Semi Hollow (natural color)

Made in Korea

22 Frets

Stop Bar, 2 Humbuckers PRS, a micro switch (3 positions)

Set neck, rosewood fingerboard.

UTILIZATION

Channel really nice, however I am more used on sleeves flatter.
The cut gives a comfortable access to the last frets.
Also the weight of the guitar is not high (compared to some Les Paul can even say that it is light)
No need to put too much distortion to make it sound good. Already a vacuum without the plug into an amp that looks promising especially for a guitar of this price.
To switch to the light simply turn the volume knob and two pickup selector on the middle position and go for a good clear sound.
In disto it passes very well but for this type of guitar overdrive (or u and Fuzz) seems more appropriate.

SOUNDS

This custom is more appropriate for the blues, jazz, rock as a little metal (although it's not his favorite).

Tested in a Spider III (Line 6), I have not put more than 2min to find a great sound (bright and saturated)

on the other hand to describe the type of sound, the cliché is that PRS is halfway between Gibson and Fender.
The photo is not so far from the truth but the PRS had a lot of personality.

OVERALL OPINION

I tested and had a lot of guitars (Ibanez, Fender, Gibson, LTD, PRS Jackson ,...) that little is definitely my guitar the most versatile and also my favorite.
The violin is more than correct, without lie finishes are really nice, but the logo on the head with a hair lacquer thinner they could sell more. 600th Euroguitar paid in Lille.

The only thing we could blame him but you have to be crazy to blame anything for this PRS is the flat table.
But it is a question of cost would have carved a table pushed up the price quickly guitar.
In short it to the trunk PRS SE Custom Semihollow, trying urgently. I usually prefer more oriented metal guitars, the PRS blew me away by its quality and range of sounds in a very good bill. I even caught playing some funky song.
