Californiaman Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 My son wants to learn to play guitar now. I think he made a great choice for a guitar. We're thinking about getting him the PRS SE One. He picked one out at the music store yesterday. I played it. I liked it a lot. Very nice clean sound. Very nice overdriven sound. The price is good too. But I'm hoping it will be better. Here's what it looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryUK Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Are the se models ok? I take it they're the equivalent of epiphone/squire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff-7 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 The SE models are actually quite fine guitars for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky scott 29 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 I have never played one myself, however, many people that I have talked to say they love theirs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted December 24, 2010 Author Share Posted December 24, 2010 Are the se models ok? I take it they're the equivalent of epiphone/squire? This particular SE model has been discontinued. That doesn't make it a bad guitar either. They're quite nice. I was pleased with it. I think my son will like it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 I've played a lot of them. They are very nice guitars. I'd get a PRS SE long before an Epiphone or Squire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murph Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Nice California..... I bought my daughter a Gibson Les Paul Studio (Fireburst) for her 9th birthday, and it was a bit heavy for a 9 year old. She's 11 now though and it's not so bad. Good on ya.

Californiaman Posted December 25, 2010 Author Share Posted December 25, 2010 He's a big 11-year old. It looks like he can handle the weight of the guitar and the width of the neck. Maybe we'll pick up a little amp for him too. If not he can use one of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstMeasure Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Great Choice! As for Brand comparison I'd say it's more akin to a Gibson Les Paul Jr. rather than an Epi or a Squier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versatile Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Nearly got one of these a couple of years ago Heard great reports about them...they seem to be excellent VFM As mentioned, it's a bit like a LP Junior Lucky beginner who starts on one of these V Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldefrothingslosh Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 I have one - or I mean, One - and love it. I enjoy the simplicity of one pickup and one knob, and it has a surprising variety of tone if you work at it. Great neck, too. I am up to 14 electrics (ranging in quality from a starter Yamaha RGX to a Gibson Traditional), but I actually tend to play the SE One more than the rest. I think it is an excellent choice for anyone - beginner, expert, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
