Make sure you like a thick neck…this one is like a baseball bat!

Made in china ????????⁉️no
Just got a SE P20E the other day and switched the strings to a slightly lighter gauge. Had no problem pulling the bridge pins with the cheap plastic thicker winder end made for that job. I just had to do it in two pulls. The puller was too straight to bring the pin high enough to take out so I laid a pencil by the pin and used that as a raised pivot for the puller to finish the job. other than that it was a piece of cake, definitely chocolate layer with lots of icing.
Would you play the parlour se yourself as a small easy to travel with occasionally using plugged in kind of guitar? I need something like this for acoustic numbers in my covers band but also nice to practice on?
Nice review and playing!

1k – 2k boost… LOL. Dreaming. You'd be a bat.
I love my P20E. A bargain in my book. Traded in a GS Mini on it and never looked back. Plays like butter. Lives in my living room (parlor!) and gets more play than my 00028 and D18. Mostly due to size. Don’t get me wrong, love my Martins, it’s just the P20 is easy to pick hanging out watching TV etc.
Where did you the crucifix inlay sticker for thr headstock?
I have had one of these for a couple years. When I think about trading it in towards an upgrade , I just cannot part with it because it is very transportable and hard to beat in terms of value. Most of all it sounds great.
Just got a deal on the vintage mahogany p20e. It looks great. Didn’t sound great until I changed the strings. I put Elixir strings on. I think I’m gonna love it once I get used to it. Sounds good plugged in.
"Made in China." "Eastman has done a good job of proving that's not a negative." Great shout out to Eastman. I've owned 6 Eastman from their double top DT30-GACE to a PCH3 GACE, so a big fan. By the way, the PCH3 has laminate sides and back yet sounds like a solid wood guitar. I've owned Martins, Breedlove, Eastman, Bourgeois solid wood guitars so I know what I'm talking about. Point being, when built with proper bracing and the right laminate wood combination, laminates sound fantastic.
They included a crucifix. Interesting ????
As many others I've had the exact same issue with the those crabby tuners. I've had mine for 1,5 years and the 6'th E string button broke of yesterday. It feels like it will happen very soon with the G string too. Before that you could actually see the contours of the metal through the plastic, as if it has not been placed right in the middle from the factory.
Otherwise I love the guitar, but those tuners stink. Come on PRS …you must do better than that!
THIRD time returned under warrantee for broken / snapped tuners…. your idea of replacement set justified
Now this is a really interesting post thanks! Particularly in my case. I love this little guitar BUT it has had a serious problem… playing on stage then the original butter bean tuning know snapped … disaster. Then after repair under warrantee it happened AGAIN … At home tho. So I heard this was an issue with others. Then I see you posted an "after market" sample with Kluson vintage deluxe tuners which have replaced the originals…. I wonder if there is any sign of old screw holes or whether the Kluson were an exact fit..(??).. thanks again for posting…
Sounds like a toy
Hi. Where did you get that truss-rod cover ? (a logo with a cross) ?
My grandmother always said anyone that says they are being honest are definitely lying. Prove my grandmother wrong.
Played today and knew it was a soild mahagony top because of the midrange grunt it projects. It was listed $650 and had the smaller vintage white tuners. Honestly, it doesnt have an inspiring sound but it it compensates in playability, looks and modern/vintage vibe. Im going back to buy it because with a Anthem pickup and some EQ to tame mud, it will really punch thrlugh on its own with other intruments in the mix.
FYI, I don't think those are the original tuners.
can you do a tutorial on sleeping all alone by jake hill?
