Post by univalve »

Cheers dudes, i fancy a prs guitar right now. Somehow i can't really remember ever seen these by bands that i dig. So do you have any examples how they sound out in the wild?

Mary Timony used to play a PRS really early on in Helium and she always sounded great. Definitely indie.

Couldn't find any videos of her with one in Helium, but here's a show w/ her when she was in Autoclave:

Although, I do prefer when she plays other guitars. :idk:

311 probably isn’t helping.

I'm also pretty sure one of the NIN guys in the early-mid 90s used them.. don't remember as to whom due to NIN not being Ministry and therefore sucking.

Lord Snow guitarist sometimes uses a blue doublecut PRS of some kind. Also an SG and a Squier H/S/S strat, not sure exactly which ones specifically on the records - which of course sound better than these recordings - but here are the best live vids I could find with the PRS:

Neil Michael Hagerty used to play one in Royal Trux.

Dumb question: What does a PRS even sound like? Isn't it just a fender scale SG? :idk:

I think they've got a 25" scale. Like Danelectro.

Saw this band Kurokuma (guess they're coming for you Blackened Soul ;) ) last night and the guy used a prs. Crazy finish that I can't seem to find any reference to today, it looked solid black but with bright green or yellow streaks that looked like they followed the grain of the top. Pretty neat. Sounded alright
