As always mate fantastic really well thought out and totally original and refreshing approach to guitar content
I’m also a huge fan of Amplitube and Bias FX
and it’s really sweet to hear your clean playing style shining through your videos
Your channel is totally quality above quantity and always awaiting the next production but always worth the wait
Keep up the great content mate .... it’s top notch !!!
That made my day. Really appreciate the comment, man.
The production quality is next level, I'd wait another however long it's been for another one like this. Hope the house move went well mate!
Thanks! I'm trying to get 2 more done this year. The move was pretty good. Still unpacking, of course, and I need to finish the "studio" but I'm not sure how I want it yet.
Great video as usual, hope your channel continues to grow, you deserve it. All your videos are very well done!
Hey man. Absolutely love your vids !! Really enjoy them !! Thanks man!
Thanks!
This was a good video. Informative, and less than an hour long. You were straight to the point, and made many good points in such a short time.
Thanks!
These videos are always such an event 👏🏽 super inspiring too... that intro had me rolling 😂
Thanks, man!
Love it. Video was worth the wait
Thank you!
Great video and another beautiful PRS. I’d love one some day. Thanks for sharing 😊🎸
Thanks for watching!
Great intro, video, playing and explanation. Really enjoyed it mate. Just subscribed b
Thank you!
Great vid man and great to see you again ! I always did find PRS tone a little too slick for me but they indeed do their own thing. To find a guitar that would stop fender from making strats/ teles & Gibson from making LPs/SGs would be difficult if not impossible. Great points were raised in this vid and I especially like how you neatly wove a crime drama and demo into one :) Keep at it dude!
Thanks, man!
the headstock bit was too funny👌 (and even a PRS with a "f- type" vibrato system has its own voice, and it can't all come down to the slight difference in scale length; which is only on some of their range anyways). love em or hate em, their creator is a big brain freak that has mental maps of energy/signal chains that would blow our minds. sweet vid.
Major respect for what Paul has done with his instruments.
Really hope you can post more regularly soon. Watched all your videos on another device (not signed in) - and as soon as I got back to my PC I had to comment. The opening to your "divorce" video had me in stiches.
But dude, more Fender content please. UNCLE LEO IS WATCHING.

Heeeesss baaaaack! Hope the move went well, buddy! The new room seems to offer a very unique vibe to your videos. I love it. BTW, I bought two Harley Benton SG clones over quarantine and...uhhhthey're dope. SG IS for sure one of the best body styles of any guitar, but I'd be willing to give that PRS a spin and see what it's like. Glad you're still making videos.
Thanks! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the room yet. I kind of like the retro wood paneling, but it's also a little... much. We'll see.
@@guitarmovies I don't know man. It's pretty cool. It's like watching High Definition guitar reviews in Dom Draper's den or something. All you're missing is a globe bar, a cardigan and a still burning cigarette...though since you are a Father, I would not in good conscience suggest any of those props...especially the cardigan....You don't know me but all of those things are jokes...except the part about liking the room. It's cool. I'm jelly.
😂😂😂 I definitely considered a little cocktail bar in the background
I appreciate this take. I also somehow just discovered this model and it has jumped to the top of my wishlist. I've never liked the looks of the SG, so to get an SG vibe in a guitar that looks this good is a great alternative.
I love how understand and state that those iconic guitars are stories for a reason but you appreciate something new without bashing traditional instruments. Great video!
Thanks!
I have a standard(?), non thinline, myself. I never even thought of it in terms of an sg, but I don't disagree. It is amazing to me how familiar these guitars sound while being different enough to be unique. Good video, as always. Thanks for making it.
I'd love the the singlecut 594, too. They don't seem to be in stock much, though.
Nice video. I was ready to go off on you when you spoke of the "PRS issue" early in but I liked the thoughts at the end. I have owned Gibson and Jackson in the past. I can get what ever I want and I have 5 PRS core models. I am just an average player and they make me better.
Brilliant!
100% less neck dive, that's exactly what i was worried about. Thx for saying that !! And whew glad you said that about the school uniform, whew, was worried. As a huge AC/DC fan and player.
This was incredible
Bellissimo!!
I just got to 1:00 when writing this comment, but god only knows how much I like this video until now! editing the comment at the end (if I remember lol)
ok, 6:04: if that's a true correspondence, then I seriously have to take PRS in consideration for my next guitar ahah (I'm Italian, that's like a certification of quality)
Would you suggest a PRS for beginners too?
I honestly love your style of videos, man!
Keep it up!
A PRS would be great for beginners because you'd be learning on a very nice guitar that's set up well and enjoyable to play. But they are more expensive so if you don't stick with it then you made an expensive mistake.
I think you're wrong,my 594 S2 gives me a better Gibson tone it doesn't get muddy like a LP does and the split coil pickups give me a more refined Strat and Tele tones,in my opinion it's a Gibson killer.
From Leo: I have been playing my 1st SG since 1971. Even bought a 2nd one. Washburn idol series(Wi64 and Wi66) was just as playable with far better ergonomics and balance with no quality issues. I bought a couple of them. It is hard to crush the SG 40 year head start. That thin body PRS looks like a great guitar, that I would possibly buy, but as you say, The SG will still survive honest competition.
What did you say char le ard .... ? OK, that being said, the S2 mccarty is my new got to have axe. As you said I too have 2 favorite guitars , the SG and the Telecaster. With it's coil splitting options this S2 kinda is both guitars in one. I liked the review. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber.
I feel the same way about my PRS Thinline 594, it is awesome!
Such a great guitar!
I have two prs s2’s both satin standards. A standard 22 and a s2 single cut standard. They are top notch instruments. That pattern regular neck is to die for.
I agree, the neck profile is awesome.
Dude... I have the same guitar only in the McCarty version...alot of people rag on the pick ups, but they sound fine to my tone deaf ears...rock on my brother!!!!
I like them too! They sound great
I am actually going to one of the bigger music stores here in Sweden tomorrow in order to try the S2 594 Thinline. I actually love the way it looks and I really loved the way that my Gibson SG Sounded (but I couldn't get it to freakin' stay in tune!)...so this might be the replacement. However...I still haven't heard a PRS S2 demo that I liked the sound of. So...argh... I should just stay home and cry instead.
It's not the tone, or the feel, or anything I can put my finger on, but for some reason when I play my Thinline, I have a real hard time putting it down. It's perfectly average in every way, but an absolute joy to play. I love that guitar!
Props to PRS for making what they do. I just can’t get behind them for the the following reasons: 1) body shape 2) headstock 3) overall look and 4) most importantly, the midrange sonics of the guitars just aren’t vibey enough for me. But again, they make great products. Thanks for the video!
No- construction is nothing alike. People think because a guitar is mahogany with a. Set neck it’s identical. The neck to body ratio, flat top, and much lesser mass of the SG makes it entirely different animal which is why none of PRS’ offerings have ever sounded anything like it save maybe the Vela/Starla but still those are much closer to LP Specials than SGs.
Really missing your videos!
Me too!
My PRS SE Custom was a bit vanilla, sterile....but once I dropped in some Seymour Duncan JBs this week...WOW!!! Sounds like a Gibson now....wait, what....why did I do that...I already have several Gibbys... oh, well.... It does now compete with my fabulously sounding SG Std. It did "improve" tone, especially bridge pup. Nice channel!
Seymour Duncan makes a P90 sized JB/Jazz set of pickups that I’ve been thinking about putting in my Les Paul Special.
@@guitarmovies great to know. Got a 2010 Edwards with P90 a couple weeks ago, great guitar...but I'm on a JB kick now and can see me getting some JBs again.
JB is da bomb bridge pup! Fucking rock and roll girth!
I prefer PRS guitars in general over Gibson, and have never been a huge SG fan. I did buy and quickly sell an S2 594 Thinline. It was lighter, better designed and better built than an SG but the pickups, electronics, hardware and gig bag are cheap and once you factor in the upgrades you’re better off buying a nice used core model.
As the owner of both a ‘72 Gibson SG and a PRS Custom 22, I can honestly say, the PRS is easier to play. The PRS has a growl that almost matches the SG. That being said, I would love to have the McCarty, but I can’t justify it, since I already have those tones covered 🥲
pls turn on the lights
Uh oh, six months since an upload. Too many mid life guys that aren't guitar gods start to build these great channels and then disappear. Hope to see more videos from you one day. It's inspiring.
Thank you! I have more video ideas than time, unfortunately. I'm sure I'll do more at some point, but it'll be sporadic and likely infrequent. But I love making the videos. If they paid the bills I'd do more!
Who switched of the light?
A ghost?
I’ve had a good few USA PRS guitars, absolutely great build and looks, however they do seem to have a problem with the sound, just not inspiring, sterile is an excellent description
I’ll agree that’s the case on the S2 line, which is solved with a pickup and/or wiring upgrade. But the core model pickups (especially the 58/15 LTs) are phenomenal.
@@paultiplea just going on my experience mate, I’ve had Wizz and Monty’s humbuckers and to my ears PRS pickups are not even close to their tone, either with the volume maxed out or rolled back.
@@doncowie8653 Fair enough, those are amazing pickup makers.
@@doncowie8653 Monty's have just put their PAF clones and an SG loom in my S2 Thinline it has taken a pretty good guitar and made it great.
Time for some big gain three chord progressions
I think the Mira is more SG
Nice job! #wemakeprs
As always, your videos contain great insights and are highly entertaining! The only way this video could be better would be if you were actually wearing a school uniform. 🔥🔥🔥😜
Ha! Maybe if I ever do an SG video
I’ve said before our tastes in guitars are very similar. I have a core Singlecut 594 McCarty and it’s the one I pick up the most. I’ve just about pulled the trigger on a double cut 594 S2. I hadn’t actually thought of it as an “SG”. I don’t get on with SG’s at all.
Those singlecuts are amazing
The 58/15LT pickups are superb, but just overall these guitars are just one awesome package.
You hate that you get the pokemon reference? I would have guessed you grew up in the 90s, right?
I'm old. I was an 80s kid. I was oblivious to the Pokemon thing in the 90s.
@@guitarmovies gotcha. I was born in 89. I guess you were a cool teenager when Pokemon took over the playground.
PRS guitars can be a step above the rest When it comes to the tone
I've definitely come to appreciate their guitars a lot more
Every now and then I look for a Prs. But I’ve never bought one. Now I get why I don’t have a Prs. It has no mojo. It doesn’t have that history 🤷♂️
I mean Gibson wont redesign improve guitars but artistically In a good way but prs have their vision that's why they e gotten so far
that intro...bruh..!
🙏🙏
As always, don't subscribe. BUT... if you do like this video, please share it. Much appreciated!
not possible because some of us do not like the prs,
paint, body carve, pickup tone, headstock shape, neck feel, all of it horrible,
so it will not replace any sg.
As long as PRS has that ugly (unique) headstock......
It’s not ugly bro… it’s is unique..
I really like the PRS headstock
@@guitarmovies its cool for a progressive guitar. I think some prefer a classic look.
