On the first clips, and I know YT messes up audio to some extent, but both are getting the same YT treatment here; the S2 pickups seemed to have a bit more ‘meat’ - as if you were hitting a little harder too.
Hey Ethan, thanks for the video! Question for you? I’m just about to get the 10th anniversary S2 594, but with the American pick ups and electronics identical to the core. From your experience with the two guitars, do you think that would bring the guitars as much closer together for the Tone and also for the magic experience that you’re talking about, being inspired and playing more creatively, etc. I know it’s a combination of a lot of things but I think the electronics are probably the biggest difference minus weight or something. Thanks for your thoughts!
The S2 is an amazing guitar, I’ve got a thin line S2 and it’s fantastic. To me the S2 does more than a good enough job and all your really getting extra when you go core is the gorgeous looks which if you can afford the extra then fair play go core but the S2 still does all that’s needed.
Excellent review, could you do one on the single cuts? Do they make a single cut in that natural finish? like the Core you have ? I'm more of a single-cut player. Thanks again
Needs more reverb

Really good comparison video. Thanks!
Thank you, Ryan!

Absolutely agree!
Honestly an s2 594 with bareknuckle mules or antiquities would sound just as good as the core.

Indeed they do!

It's a stunner!
