The SE Mark Holcomb Signature Model | PRS Guitars
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- The SE Mark Holcomb model stands on its own in the PRS lineup and delivers addictive playability thanks to some unique specifications, including a 24-fret, 25.5” scale length wide thin satin maple neck with 20” radius ebony fretboard. Designed to work with modeling amps in mind, Holcomb’s Scarlet & Scourge pickups bring full tone with slightly less drive, offering more articulation than ever. Whether playing sophisticated chords or melodic leads, in a band or solo, you’ll hear every note. Other specifications include a quilted maple veneer, black chrome hardware, and a 3-way blade pickup switch with push/pull tone knob for coil splitting.
“My SE signature model is an incredibly special instrument, and one that has been the mainstay of my rig in the studio and onstage for the better part of a decade. Now outfitted with my brand new Seymour Duncan signature pickups, it sounds better than ever.”
- Mark Holcomb, Periphery
The band Periphery has become a force to be reckoned with in the progressive metal scene thanks to their complex rhythms and soaring melodies. Guitarist Mark Holcomb helps achieve this full, lethal sound with his PRS guitars and signature Seymour Duncan “Scarlet & Scourge” pickups.

My wallet is going to pretend it didn't see anything
😂
Unfortunately my wallet was watching this with me. He’s very persuasive.
my wallet already filled divorce paper since this video on air
Ok Joshua, how much is this guitar?
You and me both friend
I spent a long time looking for a new guitar. When I found this guitar, and played it... I felt I found a part of me in this model. I've owned this model now for well over several months and I can't put it down... Whether it be playing Pink Floyd, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Flyleaf, Bring Me The Horizon, AFI, Funeral for a Friend, BB King or other greats... It just feels so right to play. Thank you Mark & PRS for bringing to life more than just a guitar, but an instrument that is now part of my soul. ❤
Does it play well when not wanting to jent or metal in standard tune? I’m not able to try where I live but love periphery and was curious if I could tune it back and jam to some old rock riffs.
@@SmokoYt@SmokoYt Hey there, apologies for the late response, but better late than never right? Honestly, I've played it from E Standard to Drop C, and even lower without trying F Sharp, because my gauge (11-50) can't handle that low. But I've had no problems going from Distortion related riffs to some clean tones. Tuning hasn't been an issue, but I do plan on perhaps changing the Nut from Plastic to bone in the near future. Hope this helps!
@@JasonGuitarHandawesome to hear. Going to pick one up this week and change the strings/nut and tuners out! Can’t wait.
Got to do a guitar lesson with Mark in 2011 before their show in Norfolk VA. Was a fantastic experience, incredibly nice guy. Still have the guitar pick!
That was my guitar pick! Give it back
Yeah, I met him at a PRS Clinic in Connecticut in 2016, right after i got his sig. He was super friendly and interested to hear what I thought about the guitar. We were nerding out on the coil-split sounds haha.
Yeah when he's not cheating on his wife or manipulating other women I'm sure he's "incredibly nice".
@@jurjcluners8490 Right. Maybe he should be an infallible person, who never makes mistakes, so that some random chode in the youtube comment section has nicer things to say. 👍🏻

Uncool prs deleting my comment. I said i love the guitar’s look and excited about the pickups! Just wish PRS would have added locking tuners and stainless frets for the upper end models, its 2023 and that seems a reasonable critique.
I love that the Periphery song used to demo the guitar was "Have A Blast!" Underrated off P2 imo!
Killer leads in that song!
PRS showin up today, so many new guitars.

@@prsguitars When will we be allowed to buy the good piece in Germany… asking for a friend 😜
@@7riXter Ist seit Monaten schon in Deutschland erhältlich. Konnte sie im November schon bei Session anspielen und auch kaufen. Habe mich dann aber für ne andere entschieden. Online kannst du die Gitarre auch bei allen großen deutschen Anbietern kaufen.
This guitar and the Mark Tremonti Single Cut are truly remarkable guitars.
I have the Tremonti Custom and now I want this to but Sweetwater does not have any and my local music stores don’t have any 😐
I see what you did there
Oh this blue burst color is fantastic. Love the look of the new pickups too. I tend to prefer ceramic pickups in the bridge so not sure if I'll like the new scourge pickup over the old Omega, but will definitely play this as soon as I find one in stores. Loved his original SE, may have to buy one of these as well.
I got my PRS Mark Holcomb (2022 model) in September/October. Amazing guitar, wouldn`t trade it for anything. This guitar SCREAMS quality. Love it
Still have the og se signature and probably still my favorite guitar to play any metal on and definitely going to get this to do a comparison..I’m sold 😍😍
Have a Mark Holcomb PRS SE 7 already and today my local store had this one on the wall. Went in to get some strings and somehow I ended up walking out the door with this guitar and it is amazing. Really digging the new pickups!
I've installed your signature model on an ibanez 8, I can say with real conviction that they have been the best microphones I've heard so far, great job, greetings from Argentina!
I have a les paul . A telecaster. A Stratocaster.. now I need a prs… this guitar looks so cool 😎
one of the few artist who actually play their signature guitar. 🤘🏽🤘🏽
i dont even remember the last time i saw him without one.
What are you on about lmao
@@Pughheadhes making stuff up
@@Pughhead ????
@@pramesh.gurung All artists play their signature guitars. that's the definition of signature
very nice guitar. i got to try one. never even heard of this guy till i played this guitar
I've been holding on to get your signature model for years, which was even harder when you almost convinced me in your guitar clinic in Vancouver. But now I feel I have no excuses anymore and the look on the new pickups is just incredible
Holy crap that blue black is freaking gorgeous
Awesome guitar! Have been using this for over 6 months now
I spoke to my SE Tremonti Custom - he’s ok sharing the wall with this stunner. Bravo, PRS and Mark! Best get my order in.
If it's good enough for Mark it's good for anyone
Still astonishing what they‘re delivering for the money with this. This is way closer to a proper custom shop metal guitar in sound than anything else below 2000€. My USA Jackson HT7 is still one step above, but I paid over 3k for that and this is definitely the next best thing.
here’s to hoping we hear Have a Blast on the new Periphery tour😁🤞
Looks great, I bet it plays pretty great too. I hope you do a jade finish in the future.
I have the 2021 model. I'll be ordering this model as well.
I play my Mark Holcomb signature at church and its one of my favourite guitars
I do as well
Djesus Christ ✝️ 🙏
I was playing mine at church also because it’s so versatile
I just got the 7 string, this will be my 6 string when I finally get one
Loved chattin pickup configurations with you at NAMM 19. I think i told you i threw a An alnico Neck pup in and kept the bridge (after trying a JB which was NOT meant for downtuning haha)
Cool to see less heat in these. Maybe I need another Holcomb PRS? 😝. Keep rockin man
I have the one with the Alpha and Omega pickups and love the heck out of it! The new one looks nice as well.
It's funny that Mark is talking about how he likes when people use his guitars for genres other than just metal. I recently got an Ibanez equipped with Bare Knuckle Aftermath's, and find myself playing tons of blues and funk with them. Don't get me wrong, the Aftermath's are absolutely fantastic for metal. However, they are extremely versatile in their sound and even more so with coil splits.
i really liked the old brisket burst, but this new batman burst is pretty fantastic too
I love that he played Have a Blast.
I was waiting for the DGT. Looks like I'm getting 2 new guitars now!
Love it. Please put out more 25.5" scale lengths.....maybe even with a Tele body
Steeper price with no real upgrades (assuming the pickups go for about the same price) really seems odd. Would have been nice to have locking tuner included with this one to go with the price increase. I’ll still probably end up getting one though since the original se Holcomb is my favorite guitar I own with second place going to the Holcomb SVN
It's 2023. Guitar prices are up across the board for all manufacturers even for guitars that have zero changes. I'm fairly sure they could've increased the old model from 1000 before now but held off since this new version was in development.
@@sb632 I get that but even still they could have done at least something small to improve it a bit, like putting a Graphtech nut on it instead of the plastic ones that come on all SE models, which costs next to nothing to do. And like I mentioned before upgrading the tuners to the SE locking tuners would have been nice too, though I understand that one could be a bit more expensive.
@@WhoAmIWill I can agree on those changes for sure. Even if took the cost up. especially the nut.
Only went up a $100-200. No big deal!!!!!!
I love my SE SVN Holcomb Walnut and use every single day. Delivers perfection and extreme comfort to me and I'm really happy to have it. I love the blue color visually and new PU sounds lovely to my ears. I have to test that for sure, why not getting another Holcomb? :)
I’m in the same boat as you… LOVE my walnut SVN. …but I kinda want this one too 😂
Love it! Still hoping for the return of the mighty Torero. In my opinion, one of if not the most underrated shredder guitar in history.
Friggin' love my Torero!
Am I crazy or is Have a Blast just playing in the background without his guitar track in the video? Sounds perfectly identical to the album
Whoa, new signature pickups?? Definitely wanna see how they compate to the Alpha/Omega, but from how it sounds in the video, they look fantastic
I wish we have a comparison video comparing old and new guitars (mostly interested in pickups honestly)
i just ordered one and am super excited for it!
Getting this next month. Can’t wait.
New Periphery tracks coming this Thursday too!!
I've been looking forward to this guitar since it was teased by Agufish a few months ago. Been meaning to get into the PRS world and with this and the new SE McCartys I think I found my entry point for sure. Kinda wish there were locking tuners but hey,beggars can't be choosers.
There should be locking tuners for the price
@@nathanielcava4128 I made my comment before I saw the price and I wholeheartedly agree
Such beautiful playing hahaha probably one of the best of all time
I just got a MH SVN for Christmas and now there's a new one!
Love it
That guitar looks great. Gotta feel one.
Seriously,
I’ve got 1 satin finish neck,
Love my other guitars but,the difference is ridiculously apparent.
Will those Seymour Duncan pickups available as a separate set? Gorgeous guitar!
damn I didn't even notice the new pickups
I just ordered mine directly from Seymour Duncan! They ship out on March 1st
i want this axe!!!!
Who wouldn't?!
Love the new colour
😎👍💓🇺🇸🎸 LONG LIVE PRS!!!
RELIC FREE SINCE 1985!
OH NO. I HAVE TO BUY MORE GUITARS.
So I got this guitar and I really like it. it fits my limited small prs collection and does thing they dont do. seriously though, it's 2023......and you can't put locking tuners on it? it cost a grand! and no locking tuners? not to mention all of the other things. might do a review in the future. it's a interesting guitar but could easily be better.
Love "Have A Blast"; wondering what percentage of their songs are on 7 strings 🤔
Give us a lefty mark please 😢
The McCarty and now this one… come on PRS are you trying to kill me??? WOW
And the 8 string? Where it is?
Sweetwater is listing 1179$/1249$ for these new editions, compared to 999$ and 1099$ for the not so old 2022 models. New color and pickups cost that much???
There has to be other things that are different, ain’t no way his new pickups and color add $200-300
I love this model, the only thing I'd personally change is a flamed top with tobacco sunburst finish and no binding on the fretboard.
Ya the binding on fretboard is fugly
I got my Holcomb SE back in 2016, and it eclipsed every other guitar I’ve ever owned, including significantly more expensive Gibsons and fenders. Everything on that instrument is pretty much perfect for what I need it for, and the pick ups have this amazing balance between being great are clean and high gain without being too saturated… i.e. incredible clarity on chords. About the only thing I’ve done is replaced the nut with the graphite one, and it looks like they’ve got a better one on the new model. I’ve always wanted to get a second one, so this might be the time.
Did ya ever get one? If so, how’s it been treating you?
It needs a trampas green finish SO bad. Beautiful instrument
Is that an MT15 in the background?!
Will there ever be a return of the USA Core Holcomb? Please, PRS!!
Pre-ordered!!
This is a doctor!
My dream guitaaaaar
Mark is one of guitarist that doesn't give an F to physical appearance yet he plays amazingly
What is that statement based on?
I almost passed on this guitar (7-string version) because all I was finding was videos that only blasted me with heavy metal.
Sharp looking guitar.👍👍👍
Love the panda watch
As Bobby Duke once said...
"I want that."
I love my seven string version but I really wish the white fretboard binding wasn’t there. Is it possible to paint over that without damaging?
I was wondering about these pick ups since they are voice to this particular guitar specs. What other Seymour Duncan pups are these sonically similar to?? I'm interested to hear more about the pick ups in other applications so I can get a pretty good idea of what they are like. Thanks to whoever wants to respond.🤘🤘
Good God that is gorgeous. How am I going to sneak an 18th guitar in the house
can someone tell me if this has the standard size and height frets I have on my custom 24 or are they more like tall jumbo...
Dang it, now I want another one in this color 😟
Was hoping he was going to call the pickups the "Djent" and the "Genre".
Cringe
@@Ottophil Was being facetious, lighten up.
Telling myself “this won’t make me better”
Was going to by the Purple SE next week but now I’m torn! Should I wait or just get both 😊
Between this and the SE McCarty 595 Singlecut, I might be in trouble.
Im currently using a lez paul designed Ibanez for church music..the guitar and the genre we play don't match but i like that.
It's weird to see Seymour Duncan pups in SE, but it might become a good selling point.
His Seymour Duncan Alpha and Omega pickups were in the first run of his signatures and they were 100% a selling point
are they gonna be available in europe?
Hey is the new violin carve 2023 only ? And why does Sweetwater not have any of these in stock 😐
when will this be released? i see its up for pre order but im going to have to trade one in.
Damn tough choice. This or the stoptail dustie. Uhg
Lol I’m in the same boat!!!
Looks great. Why the big price increase though?
wondering the same, waiting for somebody to compare the old and new versions
Is this guitar on E standard or in different tuning?
im a guitar nerd but also a watch nerd LOl what watch is he wearing in this?
Idol ❤🤘
Al di Meloa's twin!
yes
Are the pickups an improvement to his alpha omega pickups?
Dark and stealthy
i can relate with that sort of taste
now i did not knew anything about this man, but i love his Guitar
he seems to be also a good guitarist got good sound
one day i ll put down my Black SG and my Black Les paul double cut for a good
Dark and stealthy Drop A# PRS
a least for a little while
Is this made in SKR? Indonesia?
Im still waiting to buy my purple one back lol now i can have blue hmmm
🔥
If you get this, get a Mannmade brass bridge to replace the stock ....sooo much better-er
Does MannMade even make replacement bridges for this model? And in this color? Last thing it needs is some chrome colored bridge to ruin the stealth vibe
@@Alex-jw4jc Yasss. Black Nickel, Nickel, and Gold... They even have Hybrid variations. Go to the site and search Holcomb or Baritone.
He has different pickups now ??
