      It was interesting, I asked Paul once at a Q&A if he was trying to recreate in PRS guitars anything from other instruments from the past and he spoke about violins and the top class luthiery associated with them. It seems that he casts a broad net when searching for inspiration!

    Excellent. We got pedals that convey the sound of PRS guitars as accurately as possible. It is surprising that the company allowed its instruments to sound completely different from what was planned. Manufacturing technology, wood and varnish, components, strings and pickups. Even the amplifiers have been thought out in this long chain of creating an authentic PRS sound. But any pedal or processor took us away from what Mr. Paul Red Smith heard in his dreams. We are waiting for a delay and a reverb. Bravo..
