PRS Studio Tremolo Fire Red Burst NEW

PRS Studio Tremolo Fire Red Burst NEW Absolutely NEW factory-fresh American PRS. Another treat from PRS! The color is simply stunning - the rarest Fire Red Burst. The production line for this guitar was launched at the end of 2010. It has nothing in common with the Studio of the 80s, just as it has nothing in common with the Gibson model ))) no, this is not a cheap guitar, and it is not a cut-down version! This is a separate model in the PRS lineup, which they are still producing to this day. It was on this model that they started testing the new V12 finish after the Experience 2010 gathering. Of course, the guitar was equipped with the widely acclaimed 57/08 pickups and Narrowfield mini-humbuckers. As on the McCarty and 305 — the PRS Studio body thickness is increased to 52 mm, but the total weight of the guitar remained at 8 pounds (3.6 kg) — perfect! Let's move on to the sound… Everyone who has played 57/08s knows that this sound is of a rather vintage character — it is quite transparent with good attack and a punchy midrange — a kind of ideal for those playing rock and blues. The Narrowfields complement the bridge pickup and make the guitar more versatile. This is significantly better and more powerful than single-coils; I would say that on mahogany they resemble the sound of a P-90, a kind of jazz flavor like a Gibson ES-330… you turn down the volume and tone — and you get a Strat! You can also compare them to the mini-humbuckers on vintage Gibson Les Paul Deluxes, there are common notes… by and large, the sound of the guitar is similar to vintage Gibsons from the late 50s; the more you turn the knobs and play different melodies — the more you hear it with your own ears. Besides the 5-way switch for the 3 pickups, the guitar also has a push/pull on the tone — coil splitting, which also makes the guitar very versatile; you can dial in anything on it. Switching is all very convenient! The neck is fantastically comfortable, as is the access to all frets. Regarding the wood — it is very high quality (actually, as on all PRS) — it resonates fantastically, you understand this even without plugging the guitar into an amplifier! The hardware is also, as always, top-notch; the locking tuners hold the tuning perfectly, the intonation is accurate… there is nothing to complain about. Visually… Just look at the photos =)) Main specifications: Mahogany body Figured maple 10-Top V12 finish Mahogany neck Pattern neck carve East Indian rosewood fingerboard 22 frets bird inlays 57/08 bridge pickup 57/08 Narrowfield middle pickup 57/08 Narrowfield neck pickup 5-way blade pickup switch with push/pull Link to the official website and model — http://www.prsguitars.com/studio/specs.php Video of this guitar with Paul himself When I first brought a PRS Studio for myself, I expected something unusual from such a crazy combination — on one hand, the 57/08 in the bridge with all its vintage sound deliciousness, on the other hand, mini-humbuckers, which I was used to seeing on ash, not on mahogany with a maple top. In general, it was at least very interesting! Actually, expectations were met, the sound I described above… it is gorgeous, versatile. Bluesmen and jazzmen — MUST HAVE!
