Herd equilibrium in action

Lost a friend the PRS S2 that i played at Glens Falls last year. Basically a swap for this not really used SE Pauls Guitar.

JP has one of these im really digging it. A little less high profile coloring can be really good.

More on it after i get used to it plays beautifully. These have the real abalone birds think this is the only one in SE lineup like that.

This is charcoal burst i think a limited run not a standard color for SE Pauls ( is an option for the core Pauls ).

I've come very close to grabbing an SE Paul's guitar on a few occasions. I keep trying to avoid looking at them, but eventually resistance may be futile.

That's a beauty!

Looks great!
Please educate us on S2 vs SE.

Well S2 american made but some components sourced overseas the SE models all done ( varies by year ) in Indonesia. No difference to me in build quality they are all superb.

Im still getting used to this one. The pickups were 85/15s ( excellent ) in S2 the SE has TCI pickups which are even better to me.

That's part of the reason I've been looking at the Paul's. I've got 85/15 pickups in my CE24, but the TCIs have gotten great reviews and would provide a different sound.

That is one sweet looking guitar. They appear to be great sounding and very versatile too.

Congratulations!

I'm curious what model S2 did you swap for it?

I did some googling / research on it. Apparently those pickups are really special. It looks cool and sounds cool. Even I am tempted, but I need a 17th electric like another hole in the head.
