  • Somehow we were actually lucky enough to not only meet, but get to interview the man behind PRS Guitars himself, Paul Reed Smith. We wouldn't have been able to do this without SweetWater inviting us to #GearFest2023 , so thank you to everyone at SweetWater and PRS. Also, thank you, Paul, for sitting down with us for this interview.

    Y'all squeezed a super genuine moment outta Paul. That's hard

      yeah, that last question got a really heartwarming answer, in the best way.
      Paul was such a joy to be around and work with.

    You two have managed to bring out the very best interview I've ever heard with Paul. Thank you to all three of you for this interview.

    A daunting interview. Not because Paul is anything other than one of the nicest gents in the biz, but because he is definitely a force to be reckoned with. A very unpredictable force 😂. So much respect for Mr. Smith and ofc you guys. Working Class Music rocks 😌🤘🏼

      it was an experience that we'll never forget.
      Paul really walks in a room, and owns it.
      it meant alot to have him warm up to us throughout the interview.

    Great interview! So touching at the end, but so thoughtful throughout the whole interview. Paul and his team as guitar builders are second to none, but Paul as a person is so wise beyond just guitar building.

    • @WorkingClassMusic
      @WorkingClassMusic  Před rokem +4

      He was so nice and patient with us, considering we literally met seconds before we started shooting. He had us hanging on every bit of knowledge he was laying down

    Paul almost NEVER talks about family and personal subjects. You guys got it out of him. Good work!

    Sounds like he gave you some Atlanta homework. PRS is truly a student of music though. Nicely done interview

    He's such an amazing human being.... it's like having Leo Fender alive today with a personality 3 times the size!

    Paul seems like a person who's always 100% genuine and in the moment. Great interview!

    Wow, this was a rollercoaster for me to watch so I can't even begin to imagine how it must have been for you guys! You stayed so cool though, and really had a connection with Paul. At first I was like 'these are some really good questions' and then BAM he drops this philosophical twist and the whole conversation changes completely! Moved me to tears. Best thing you guys ever did. Better than the big streamers. Kudos WCM! 🤘🏼❤️🔥

    Interesting insights into the mind of the man himself. I honestly come away with a better opinion of his guitars (which I already hold in high regard) than I did before. Thank you Jason and Tia and thank you Uncle Paul!

    What a way for me to start the day. Very educational interview and some real wisdom from Paul. We should all strive to be like Paul and make a real difference in people's lives.

    Great interview with Paul...
    Dude mentioning MF was fabulous ❤❤❤
    PRS is exceptional 100%
    The host...She can host WBLS with her lush voice 😅

    @PedalPlayhouse Před rokem +4

    Really loved this interview and his attention to detail response. Def interview John ❤ like to hear that too. He gave y’all so much homework to do 😆 especially about those Tina Turner CZcams videos. Did he give y’all the playlist?

    Please please please interview Jimmy Herring, he's my favorite guitar player on the planet and lives right next to you!

    Ad break just after the words, "could you adopt us?". Perfect timing 😄 And the Uno Reverse in his response was great!

    Watched this video on 27 Sep 2023. And then I get a PRS newsletter on 29 Sep 2023 saying they're some new PRS SE lefty models? Can't be coincidence...?

    I'd buy a 5w tube PRS amp. That is my only hang up. I like the 20w Sonzera amp but its too loud for me. So I'd love a 5w tube amp from PRS.

    I own a PRS Custom 24 CB Ten top. Original US made. But I'm left-handed and play right-handed PRS strings wound backwards. I'm probably the first to play a high quality PRS left guitar. I can be forgiven for thinking that it is difficult for right-handed people to understand that I play right-handed guitars on the left. Like Hendrix Strat :D

    I really want a version of the Silver Sky SE that has a frost body, white pickguard and one of those maple necks, but currently it's only available as one of their higher end models. They should do it, it would be a direct competitor to the Fender Player polar white strat with the maple neck. Call it something wild like "Mama's Milk"

    Fuck me. Had a weird sense of nervousness watching this. Can only imagine. Well done. Helps that Paul is such a talker! Still don't believe a word he says about tone paint, and would rather a custom fender to the new thing but each to their own.
