PRS SE Standard 24-08 Demo

[@TheDefjanitor]

Dude...What the hell? All reserved throughout the demo until the solo and then BOOOOM. What an amazing solo at the end. Goosebumps, truly.

[@georgivasilev8428]

My dream guitar! I had a Standard PRS SE just before going to college back in 2014, but sold it when I was struggling financially. I've been heartbroken ever since. I just ordered my new one today after trying it out at a store recently. That guitar plays like a dream, looks so good and is SOOOO versatile. Amazing instrument!

[@Anjohl]

This is the guitar I wish I had started with when I came back to playing in 2021. Just flawless quality. This can replace five guitars.

[@jamiewhite3703]

Amazing guitar my introduction to PRS from playing strats and I am not disappointed

[@garthosborn8400]

Excellent demo. Great explanation of the electronics.
I bought a PRS SE Mira a couple weeks ago. I was also considering the SE Standard 24-08. I was very impressed by a Mira demo done by a PRS employee. That's what really sold me on the Mira.
I must say, had I seen this demo instead of the others I watched, I would have the blue SE 24-08 instead of the Mira. This demo was so well done!
I'm going to sell my Epi Les Paul Classic and get the 24-08!

[@Anjohl]

You won't regret it. The 24-08 absolutely *slays* the Epiphone Classic!

[@asherellougne4528]

Just got this used to playing a squire classic vibe holy shit what a amazing change

[@Anjohl]

This is enough guitar for anyone.

[@l1feson]

As usual, flawless playing Richard. Great demo, really nice guitar.

Bought one in March with same spec except Tobacco Sunburst finish. I love it. Brilliant guitar and lovely to play right out of the box.

[@sentinelle11]

Thank you for this real demonstration of an instrument not a demonstration of virtuosity, now I know what I can expect from this guitar and since I cannot try it, you have provided me with all the information I could hope to do my choice... I'll order it. Nice bits to end this video, what amp did you use.

[@kagenotatsumaki]

I'm just a nobody, but I'll say this, me and my cousin went to Guitar Center the other day and he bought a Gibson Studio Les Paul and they had one of these on the wall (same blue color too), while he was shopping around and dealing with the checkout process, I was playing it and let me tell you, when we got home and he was showing off his new Gibson to the family, (we all live on a shared 10 acres in the country) and he had everyone that plays (all 3 of us lol) try it out and while I was playing it, he asked me how nice it was and I told him "Yeah it's awesome but I'm not gonna lie, I'd take that PRS Standard 24-08 over it any day."
My cousin has a bit of an ego, needless to say he was NOT thrilled when I told him I liked a $730 entry level PRS over his $1700 Gibson... Lmao

[@Belman5]

I purchased this exact model a few weeks ago, amazing guitar and very reasonably priced. It sounds and feels great. I really love it.

[@vincento1978]

I wanna buy one too. Are there any problems you've had or was it perfect?

[@Belman5]

@@vincento1978No problems at all Vincento. It's an excellent guitar, set up really well out of the box. Feels great and sounds great. Try one out before you buy if you can, that's the best way to see if it suits you.

[@larsulrichnuts]

@@vincento1978 I might be late to this but I had a major issue with the pickup selector; first the bridge pickup position didn't work, then only one tone worked. I sent it for repair (was covered by warranty) and now works very well.

[@vincento1978]

@@larsulrichnuts Okay, thank you for the information. This can happen with delivering Issues I guess. Or maybe there was a little damage done. I still dont have mine because I dont have money tho :/

[@larsulrichnuts]

@@vincento1978 I bought it from swee lee, maybe it was because it was a display model

[@Letsthinkthisthrough88]

I love it! Mr. Relaxed Guitar Gent until 8:20. I could just hear that filling an arena back in the day. Tight solo and wonderfully constructed!

Great guitar, great playing as always. Guitarist are the best reviewers

Nice demo Richard ,the guitar and your playing sounds great 👍

[@javierferrer9655]

Thank you for taking the time to explain all the details on the pick up options an understanding the positions very detailed

top notch demo

[@weekendwankere69]

Beautiful fretboard

And beautiful fretwork as well!

[@Gatorlandtraditional]

Great!! Now I REALLY want one.
Excellent review 👍

[@99otari]

Ha! Just ordered mine today...same color...Translucent Blue...should have it Friday. Woo-hoo!!!

[@flatheadguy1003]

Angus Young vibes in that very tasty final demo. Masterful.

[@mathias6423]

Wow! You can not hear that the power between humbucker and "single coil" mode, in the tapped mode is half of the volume at tall. It just sound brighter in tone like a single coil compared to a humbucker would be. I have never been that fond of coil split sounds, but I must confess that PRS is one of the brands that almost nail it. They are really close to make guitars that have that perfect blend of Gibson Les Paul and Fender Strat.
If you are a beginner or an intermediate guitarist and you could at the moment only buy one guitar and want to play a little bit of everything, PRS SE Standard is the way to go.
It also has the best tremolo when it comes to keeping the tuning in check after using it.
Has anyone got the tremolo to float so that you can bend the trem arm outwards from the guitar, making the pitch/tone brighter ?

[@raydowley1038]

great starter guitar Nice demo Rich

[@thatguitarstuff]

Such a great review! Thank you!

[@Triumphinchrist1]

Great playing! Does it stay in tune well, after using whammy?

[@Guitarooster52]

Excellent. Thanks so much!

[@jimihendrix4376]

Wonderful stuff

[@LaMusicade4]

Is it true they’ve been discontinued because they’re so good? Great axe

[@matthewaltomare7629]

Trying to figure out what’s the differences between a standard SE-24 and an SE 24-08, other than the toggle switches vs push pull pots? I’m eyeing a PRS 24 and I’m trying to figure out why the 24-08 is $300 USD more. I don’t thing the toggle options make it 50% more than an SE standard, but I can’t find much else different between the two.

[@Will-101]

Hey mate in the same situation as you, did you find any differences? Did you choose one over the other?

[@josuesorto3453]

I think you might be right! Not much difference between the 2. Perhaps the pick ups might be different, and the switches make the 24-08 a bit more versatile. But besides that, same guitar. I’m waiting for my 24-08 to arrive on Monday (after regretfully selling my S2)

Damn he really uncorked it at the end. Nice.

Suena de maravilla

[@1970sman]

Probably the best looking PRS I have ever seen. Most PRS guitars look like a 'Tarts Handbag' but not this one. If only it had dots and not those awful bird inlays, it would be perfect.

[@vincento1978]

I think the birds are the most beautiful things on the guitar

[@Rob-qr2kn]

@@vincento1978 Unique, not typical

[@Anjohl]

The bird inlays make it!

The riff at 6:18 sounds like gamblers roll from allman brothers

[@thesmallnotesduo]

7:40 Boston - the lost track.

[@davebarthmusic]

several comments below re treble bleed and at 1:28. I just bought this exact model and love how it plays but when I drop the volume the treble/high end drops off very substantially. I just want to drop the volume and not change the entire sound and tone.....is this typical????

[@DMSProduktions]

Nice PRS! NICE playing too Dick! \m/

[@MrBleed69]

I have this same guitar and it's awesome

[@theelectricvoyage]

Sounds like a very nice guitar, was that outro Koss inspired?

[@bikersoncall]

Would my stock PRS SE Standard 24-08 be fitted with a linear of audio taper tone pot?

what in the hell is with the TWANG !! there is way more to these guitars than playing twang ! i own a PRS and no twang has ever been played on it . also note it's not the guitar but the gear you use that makes the music ...

Can we get a tab for this? :D

Tester just implied that the pots control more than resistance. How? They would not be pots then.
