I walked in shop to purchase the Myers SE. Walked out with the 6 string Holcomb SE. Went back the next day to purchase the Myers SE. Haven't touched the Holcomb since. This is a great guitar!
Yes, plenty of sounds but at 6:34 you made this video worthy for what I was looking for, then the chords starting at 6:47 answered my questions. Great video, you covered so many things showing us that this beautiful guitar is super versatile.
Because of the shorter scale length at 24.594 inches this would be a great guitar for kids to learn on & continue to play it as long as they choose to play guitar. Every kid I see learning guitar has a 25.5 inch scale Squier Stratocaster & most of them struggle because of smaller hands. The parents don't always know about that, unless they've played guitar. I'd love to see PRS market a short length scale guitar for young beginners at parents. They used to make an SE that I think was 24.5 inches, I could be wrong? I don't know that there's a huge demand, just something I've noticed while teaching.
Really good review that showed the guitar off well. You suggested there's more than just aesthetic updates to the previous model, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Great guitars either way, but anyone with the previous model has no reason to switch other than aesthetics.
Hi! I'm Paolo from Italy. This is an amazing guitar... very versatile. You can pass from jazz to heavy metal, to a genre to another very different without shifting guitar or dividing the magnets... and the price is affordable. I think it will be my next purchase (forgive my english... io parlo italiano/je parle francais) thanks for your recension
Great playing and a great demo from Nick, as usual. I watch pretty much all the GI videos and usually get a lot from them, between the gear _and_ the typically great playing! They've definitely helped to sell me a few things along the way, lol. However... the "significant update" and "interesting stuff going on under the hood" cited at the start of the video are never addressed. And I _was_ waiting to hear about them. I happen to own the earlier MIK Trampas Green version of this guitar--which I love--and, past the current blue veneer and headstock, along with new black tuning buttons and all-black PU coils (all this being purely cosmetic, of course, from what I've read and heard), there actually _are_ no "under the hood' changes going on at all. Now, this observation doesn't negate the Zach Myers being a fabulous guitar at all--it is--just that the hyperbole on flow from pretty much ALL quarters tends to become a bit much at times. 'Cuz it really IS the same _great_ guitar... just dressed up in new clothes. Which is OK... but please just right come out and say that. _(Head ducking now...)_
