Just curious…the 85/15’s are very good pickups but why not choose different pickups…new model with different pickups…just to shake things up a little…just throwing it out there 👍
Thank you so much Jeanne for letting me take this guitar for a spin. It has been so awesome to play and record with. Gotta love PRS Gear! Have an amazing day!
Just what I've said.. It's love at first sight from my previous comment I bought it instantly on line and the package has just arrived .Ver satisfied in every aspects.
That’s awesome you ordered one man! Enjoy the guitar! And thank you for the sub! That’s awesome of you and I’m glad you’re enjoying the other vids too! Have an amazing day!
Thanks brother! I so appreciate it 😊 I had such a blast doing this video! Kinda feels good 🙏 Thanks for hanging with me all these years Eamon. I so appreciate it man! Have an awesome day!
PRS Guitars Europe are pleased to announce SE Ltd Sand-Blasted Swamp Ash. Check out the video with Simon McBride putting the SE Custom 24 LTD Sand-Blasted Swamp Ash through its paces! This very striking limited run features a solid Swamp ash top in place of the regular model’s maple top and veneer. The solid Swamp Ash is sand-blasted and then grain filled to add colour (this great finish is borrowed with thanks from our Private Stock team!) The result is a stunning and unique look that enhances the natural beauty and very different grain patterns of Swamp Ash; no two of this limited run of only 750 pcs (Europe only) will be alike. The Sand Blasted Ltd is offered on 4 great models, SE Custom 24, SE Custom 22, SE Custom 24 Lefty, SE Custom 24 Floyd and great in 5 colours: Sand-blasted Frozen Charcoal, Sand-blasted Fire Red, Sand-blasted Indigo, Sand-blasted Yellow & Sand-blasted Emerald. Priced the same as the regular Maple SE Custom 24, these stunning guitars will be in stores by the beginning of October across Europe.
oh man, i am GAS-ing for one of these. I already own a few PRS guitars so I don't need this but the uniqueness is really appealing to me. I must stay strong...
I have the same green sandblasted finish on my Jackson. I have never owned a PRS but the green sandblasted model looks like it would be right up my street.
Tried to buy one of these when they were released in the UK in 2019, but they were not allowed to ship to the US. The location of the pickup selector has changed. In the 2019 model, it was between the knobs.
Pretty radical. I did a couple of dives and the strings stayed in tune pretty well. You can always change the tuners over to locking, especially at this price point 😊 Have an awesome day!
More coming up! Already planned and in the works so make sure you've subbed and stay tuned as there is some delicious PRS videos coming up! 😃 Have an awesome day!
Ah thats a great question! Well, I only have experience between my 2003 USA Custom 24 with the old profile Wide/Thin neck, my 2020 custom 24 with Pattern Regular, and a few other PRS guitars I have played and tried out over the last year. The Wide/Thin is ever so slightly slimmer feeling in my hands, but by a hair. Same between pattern thin and regular. In fact I looked up the specs when i was thinking about buying my 2020 Faded Whale Blue Core guitar as it has a Pattern Regular neck and the difference between them was 1/64th inch at the 1st fret and 1/32nd inch at the 12th fret. My hands could barely feel the difference to be honest. So, there are slight differences but not so much as to make the necks feel fatter or slimmer in my experience. The SE neck feels a touch different to my Core series guitars, and I imagine thats just got to do with the Core series being hand built and refined/sanded in the USA and the SE range being built in a different factory in Indonesia. Hope that helps! Have an awesome day!
I played a few today, didn't buy one. Looks cool, plays extremely well for a budget import (where were these 20-30 years ago) but ultimately said no thanks. If you've played SE series before you know what to expect. They all play pretty much the same, up to the Holcomb level. This one is nice without the gloss neck but otherwise typical SE feel. If you like that you're a lucky player. I personally do not care for their "wide thin" neck profile. Thin where? That's their usual chunky feeling neck. That's too bad.
Jay, what are your thoughts on the LTD GL DESERT EAGLE by ESP? I've always wanted one of George's style of guitars but am on a budget; can't afford a custom build by anybody but would like your thoughts please and figured you'd be impartial. 🙏
Hey dude, Thanks for reaching out and for your question about the LTD GL Desert Eagle. I appreciate your interest in my opinion, but I'm afraid I can't offer much insight on this particular guitar. I don't have any personal experience with it, so I wouldn't be able to provide an informed or helpful opinion. These days, my focus has shifted more towards PRS USA and EVH Wolfgang guitars, so I'm not as familiar with the current LTD/ESP lineup. For the most accurate and helpful information, I'd recommend reaching out to someone who has hands-on experience with the Desert Eagle model. You might find better insights from gear forums, some other RU-vid reviews, or even contacting a dealer who carries these guitars. They'll be able to give you a more detailed and accurate perspective on its quality, playability, and how it compares to other guitars in its price range. I hope you understand, and I wish you the best in your search for the right guitar! Have an awesome day!
Stop it Jay!! Now your going to make me have to get one - I had been looking at the custom 24 08 - on Reverb, used, mint condition $600. $699 for yours new, no used ones yet on Reverb.
That looks rather good that model looks more expensive than it is, the stock pickups can do a job, alough I believe they coil split really well, they sounded great in the mix tbh, would love to see more prs content, they are a special brand I only picked up an SE custom 24 about 7-8 years ago couldn't believe I'd never played or bought one, totally hooked aswell as their amps and amp cabs, don't buy pedals much these days but would be interested in hereing demos of their pedals.
Hey dude, yeah the guitar surprised me in the most pleasant way! It looks so good, especially in person, and sounds fantastic. The coil split sounds were so awesome. Loved doing that Telecaster sounding solo! Awesome about the contents! More PRS content already planned man! 🤘 Their amps are excellent too. Stay tuned as there is another one arriving today - details will go on my Patreon page first - and I will have a pedal arriving in a few weeks too. Fun, Fun Fun.... Have an awesome day!
@jayguitar hope u don't mind me asking here, for access to further content if I become a member of you're RU-vid channel is that the same as being a patreon level 1 or 2, I'm confused lol
@@si-borg_guitars hey dude, don’t mind you asking at all. RU-vid membership is mainly just support and early access to videos - usually 24 or 48 hours before they go out. Sometimes a few hours beforehand (I’ve been cutting it fine with my work and upload schedule lately). Patreon level 1 is access to one update video per month which is properly behind the scenes, and image posts that I do over there quite regularly. Patreon level 2 is pretty much full beans - weekly videos updates, new gear pics and details, plans, playthrough go up way before video release (sometimes a week before), one-to-one contact with me through chat, message, phone as well if people wanna chat, sharing future plans, etc, etc. Plus there is a whole cache of previous posts that I’ve done, backing tracks, even a logic template somewhere on there, EPs and music. Hope that helps. I really appreciate you considering it 😊🙏🏽 any other Qs feel free to reach out.
😂 I guess that’s just my presentation style. I wasn’t paid for this and the guitar is going back to the good folks at PRS as well. I like their gear so always happy to give them a shout out and help promo their guitars and amps. Have an awesome day!
Hay jay I got 5 core lines Models. Two sas 2010 & 1997 with flame all maple neck Tran red with seymour phatcat 90 .

More se 24 I had two of 6 year go I used play it It ok I cannot adapt to it 😂
Once you see the birds are flying the wrong direction you can't unsee it. They should be turned 180 so they aren't flying downwards in the playing position.
I hear you about the price but I think the finish is worth the extra bucks 😊 the swamp ash does look and feel amazing. But I totally respect it’s a personal choice. Have an awesome day!
