  • Thank you for the video, explaining the features and uses. Great job! To me that was the purpose and the reason why I decided to watch the video ( it wasnt about how to get the sound you had in your head or how to create a preset or test all the pickups configurstions…thats boring…)

  • Brother im not impressed with that guitar at all. Sweetwater demo sounds way better than that PRS. Negativity not intended just what Im hearing

  • C'mon already, for demos use a guitar that has both humbuckers and single coils. Duh
