PRS SE DGT Tobacco Sunburst

È la prima prs che compro ma non la prima che suono. Questa per il prezzo che ha attualmente vale la pena assolutamente acquistarla se il budget da spendere fosse quello. Perfetta in ogni sua componente, action da rivedere in base ai gusti personali, io ho abbassato un pochino; ma è già perfettamente suonabile da subito.
Dinamica al tocco, pazzesca, tasti posati benissimo, suono chiaro ma avvolgente, con corde 0.10-46 risulta comunque morbida sotto le dita. Manico che si adatta perfettamente alla mia mano (non ho mani piccole e affusolate)
Peccato per le meccaniche non autobloccanti ma queste di serie tengono comunque bene l’accordatura.
Esteticamente bellissima a parer mio.

I have, I think, 7 electric guitars, none with a functional tremolo. I tried another guitar before this one, but it didn't fit me well. The action was stiff, and it was an offset body, which I didn't find comfortable at all. So, I sent it back to Thomann.
After a lot of research, I decided to try this model. I watched a score of videos on YT, and they were all effusive in their praise regarding fit and finish out of the box, which is important to me because my Meistergitarrenbauer friend has retired! So, I had no room to maneuver if there was anything wrong with it. I can do very basic things myself, but a fret dress isn't one of them. This guitar was very close to perfect. The intonation is slightly off on the 6th (E) string, and the action is a touch high for me, which I will remedy myself.
As for the rest: I was a bit skeptical about PRS necks. 'Wide-Thin' does not suit my left hand well. This model got my attention because the neck is a more traditional form. A number of reviews have called it 'chunky' like an old Gibson, but I've had Gibsons that had the 'baseball bat' neck, and the neck on this PRS is really nowhere near that. It fits my left hand perfectly.
The guitar isn't too heavy, which is welcome to this old dude! The coil split does its thing surprisingly well, and the tremolo arm is exactly what I wanted. Not for divebombing, but adding embellishments at the end of a chord phrase or something like that. I also like the 25" scale length, right between a Gibson and a Fender.
This guitar has been well thought out, and the factory set up is close to perfect. I am very pleased.
