Attention PRS it's time to produce a real 335 type, the ultimate Neo-Soul&Blues tone machine and dominate the charts

it's gonna cost you...





not a bad price compared to some others

The cost isn't the problem if they actually produce the guitar I want. I'll make payments on a 6-7k guitar but I'll be damned if I'm making payments on a woodtick shaped AAAAA top guitar like you posted. I mean, they are nice, but not worth taking on that debt load cause I like my ES'. And if it's just a 4-5k Gibson ES I'd rather just save the cash and get the same quality/tone from an Edwards, Seventy Seven, or IBG Epi. I'd like to see them do an SE Golden Sky because it would shut Gibson down in quality for the money and increase their market share, which would force Gibson into stepping up their own game.

Sharkey is insanely good. One of the top neo soul/gospel guitarists on the scene today. I'm sure he could be lured into purchasing or endorsing PRS if they produce the Golden Sky. Another sick neo soulgospel player is Erick Walls.

Did you look at Sire Larry Carton sig H7 models; they have hardtails and trem systems; humbuckers, filtertrons or p90s; nickel chrome or gold hardware...?

Under $1K while you wait for the PRS golden sky.

Doesn't look to bad but just a guess those pickups would have to go. The seventy seven exrubato has had my interest for a while, especially the older 100% Japan models. I was this close 🤏to pulling the trigger, and should have, on a sunburst one but the dude tried to get me for an extra hundred so I walked. So I'm just waiting for PRS to deliver this time....

Here's the exrubato jazz. Check that rope binding

To get PRS attention, you'd need someone like Lee Anderton, or the CEO of Sweetwater, etc., who can move large volumes of guitars...I'm sure they have influence on what guitar models are made.

I was just saying, the big retailers have sales and market data that they can share with manufacturers. Manufacturers should use that data to determine what products to make.

It's good advice. I have already started to lean on PRS. Paul, if you are Reeding this, let's get it rolling brougham!

I hate P-90s almost as much as I hate the Beatles.

Were we separated at Birth?

I don't get the Beatles at all.... except they came out at the right time, but I think there music is... meh
and I usually like Beatles songs when they are covered by someone else

P-90's I haven't quite figured out, more balls then a Single Coil, Not as much balls as a Humbucker, but you still get to enjoy the single coil noise...

Same, it's either pretty sappy boy band stuff or goofy studio albums that can't be recreated live. Not really a fan at all but I will say the stuff they made separately seems more listenable to be me than anything they made as a band. I guess I'm not a baby boomer so it's over my head, before my time, and outta my tax bracket.

Some guys sound amazing through them. I have had a couple different sets and they were nice sounding but didn't suit my style for whatever reason.

I contacted Sweetwater today. It might take a year or two of putting the pressure on them but I'm on it. Thanks again for the advice.

PRS has an official YT channel: https://www.youtube.com/@prsguitars you can start posting what you want on their official videos; others may comment in agreement.


you can post comments on YT gear shill channels saying what you want and see if they take the bait, or other commenters agree with you.

...like a social media grass roots effort.

These are great ideas. I will definitely put this to use in due time. Start small and get a snowball effect happening.

@rsm the sweetwater rep answered my message. He says the PRS reps come around on occasion so maybe someone can tell them directly.
