NEW PRS's for 2014

[loqtrall]

Finally! I've been waiting for a PRS I can afford with a Floyd that wasn't the Torero. I'm so happy.

does someone have a mop? I just saw the floyds and had multiple bodily malfunctions and I find myself in a bit of a mess.

Now if only they would make an S2 with either a fixed bridge or a floyd, I would get me a new PRS.

PRS Guitars Introduces Marty Friedman Signature Model | Guitar World

So, what do you all think?

 

[Knyas]

I welcome it, but it's hardly exciting is it? A Black SE Singlecut with Star inlays.

 

[SeanSan]

Boring.

I'd still buy it since I'm a Marty Friedman fanboy. It's probably a solid workhorse guitar too though! And I'm okay with that. I dig the stars too!

 

[thrashcomics]

it is exactly the same as his ibanez was.

 

[asfeir]

Looks like the old tremonti se! These are amazing guitars and they only need minor changes to challenge the top guitars like a but change/tuners and pickups.

 

[Adam Of Angels]

it is exactly the same as his ibanez was.

Well, the inlays are the same.

Also, I used to have his old Ibanez sig and it was awesome. If this is somehow similar in playability, it would indeed be a workhorse.

^Anyone else notice the oddly shaped/heavily scooped lower bout? No doubt for easier upper fret access.

 

[KarlMagnusRobin]

The Zach Meyers..

AFAIK that's standard for most, if not all, PRS electric models.

 

[SkullCrusher]

Still no black hardware....

The Zach Myers looks saweeeeeeet. I love Marty Friedman, but why does he need to put star inlays on his sigs? Why??

Cause their his sigs and he likes stars ?

 

[The Scenic View]

The new ZM and Custom 24 are gorgeous! Too much GAS for one sitting, I need to stop internet

 

[7deadlysins666]

I'm glad there is a Marty Friedman sig....i'm sad that it's basically a Tremonti with star inlays. I was kinda hoping they'd expand the acoustic line this year as well.

 

[obZenity]

I really really want this. . .

I love everything about it. The color, style, bridge (had one on my Akesson), the semi-hollow is neat, unfinished fat neck. I hate the damn band but this thing is awesome. Now I need to decide if I want to be unique and drop these extra Black Winters into it or save up for some Blackhawks.

When are these due out. . . I need the Zach Myers sig in my lap

 

[mystix]

I dig it too

 

[JoshuaVonFlash]

Yep the best SE model so far, this is what I wanted from the SE line from the start. The looks of a $2,000 PRS but with a Veneered top to keep the cost down since they don't use the more expensive woods on the SE's. And it looks like they top is finally arched/beveled.

 

[Señor Voorhees]

I'm not a big PRS or Shinedown guy, but damn it if that isn't a spiffy looking guitar.

They've done the carved/beveled veneer tops for a while now, actually. I think that started back in like 2011 or 2012 IIRC. Definitely an improvement as far as I'm concerned too! They started with adding the birds, then putting the carved top on there as well helped a lot to make it a little bit closer to the real thing as that part of the PRS aesthetic was something a lot of folks missed from the SE lineup.
