I watched this video with Howard Leese and Tim Pierce putting vintage Gibson’s up
against a few PRS guitars. They have have a beautiful warm tone with no shrillness. Very fat and silky. The PRS guitars do sound better but really every guitar on that video sounds sweet. Probably it’s just my presets but so far I have never gotten a tone like what I hear in this video. Then again I don’t have these guitars. I have heard similar tones on the Silver Sky’s as well. No ice pick treble and a pleasant warmth, even on the bridge pickups. When I warm up my presets they have less high end but sound dull, nothing like this.
