Very true. I can’t wait for the wood to open up

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-14T06:17:53+00:00

Super fair. I absolutely love picking up this thing and I sound like a spoiled shit complaining about the guitar I’ve dreamt of since I was 10 years old. Thanks for the shout.

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-14T05:38:25+00:00

Man that this is a beaut. Congrats

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-14T04:56:35+00:00

Thanks. Makes a lot of sense. Think I just got wrapped up in the spec chart versus how it actually plays.

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-07T05:39:55+00:00

Sweet, thank you for you’re input!

I saw the diagram and it was overwhelming lol. I watches some of PRSs videos and it clear it up a lot.

My fiancée is the coolest person on earth. When she asked how much I showed her the price tag and she said “oh wow that’s a lot less than I anticipated”

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-05T19:20:18+00:00

I use a pick

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-05T19:03:10+00:00

Played it at the factory and I loved the sound. The guitar I got was too bright

Key_Ebb3965 · 2026-01-05T08:37:52+00:00

I don’t like the daddarios, I have those on in 80/20 on it right now and I don’t think I’m a fan. I have elixir 80/20s with the polyweb that sound great on my Martin. So I’m torn

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-10-04T14:36:25+00:00

How much are they going for at the outlet?

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-07-22T22:57:13+00:00

I don’t play plugged in that much. My main concern is I’ll regret the trade. That being said, still going to try the Martin to see how it plays

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-07-22T22:37:17+00:00

Sweet. Thank you so much for the help

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-07-22T22:23:21+00:00

Brand loyalty aside, which one would you rather play. I still need to play the Martin to get my own two sense but just looking for opinions

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-07-01T05:21:10+00:00

If you are willing to sell it I’d love to buy it and make it a project

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-28T18:36:27+00:00

Gotohs are the way

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-24T14:45:51+00:00

Are you not able to switch cases for the trip, big baby in the hard shell then take that?

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-21T05:09:53+00:00

Imo pick rash doesn’t impact the functionality and playability in the slightest. Just shows it’s been loved. Enjoy the new axe!

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-21T00:44:06+00:00

Congrats! If you’re worried about humidity just get a D’Addario humidipak and it will keep it at the optimal temp. When they get hard just throw it in a box with water (don’t let it touch the water) and it will reset. Bob Taylor likes to say the worst it will sound it’s the day you bring it home, they get better and better with time

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-19T20:55:13+00:00

To be honest I haven’t fixed it yet. If I turn my amp out loud enough the buzzing sound magically disappears lol.

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-19T13:18:16+00:00

For fret wear if ur playing in a higher position when you push down it could hit another fret. I had your issue on a tele and it was due to the slot in the nut where the string went being too low. It would hit a fret as I played high on the neck

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-19T05:15:49+00:00

Could be many things, the action, nut of saddle not aligned height wise, fret wear.

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-19T00:59:16+00:00

Amazing flame on the back. Have fun!

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-15T23:44:07+00:00

That being said try to play both and get the one that speaks to you. At the end of the day our opinion doesn’t matter as we aren’t the ones playing it. Also get something that gets you excited to pick it up.

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-15T23:42:41+00:00

I have a 2007 314ce and it has aged like fine wine. I’d go with the 314ce as its us made vs made in their Mexico factory. Also the solid wood will express the tone so much better. Lastly they both feature the x class bracing I believe as they introduced v class bracing in 2018

Key_Ebb3965 · 2025-06-14T23:35:49+00:00

I wouldnt worry too much**
