Re: PRS Singlecut and Gibson LP Traditional tone comparison!
Good call, I absolutely love my 1981 Ibanez Ritenour semi it's very rare I get a guitar and don't change a single thing on it, everything on that guitar just works. I was really surprised how good those early Japanese copies can be.robthemac wrote:Yeah, I'm gonna have get over my hollow-body objections. Would love a 594, but I think budget-wise a '70s Japanese archtop copy is probably more feasible.Voxshall wrote: If it was my choice for your style I'd probably go PRS 594 Hollowbody II, but only because you don't like the big 335 body shape and a semi eats a Les Paul for breakfast on those jazzy clean tones you have going on.

Re: PRS Singlecut and Gibson LP Traditional tone comparison!
I'm going for the second being the LP. Never played or owned a PRS however, and I thought clean tones were only for tuning..
Anyhow, the second sorta reminds me more of my LP's for the neck position.

I think they both sounded good but I'd go for number 1.

1958 Fender twin, 1965 Vox AC30, 1966 Marshall JTM 45, 1977 Dumble OD Special.
Big black garbage bag full of original Klon Centaurs and TS808s.

Now with some crunch and some distortion. And some slightly lazy late-night playing. This new fandangled rock music ain't my thing.
Same guitars (maybe different order), still going into Bias FX. Firstly modelling a Klon into a pushed Twin, then a Big Muff into a BE-100.

Re: PRS Singlecut and Gibson LP Traditional tone comparison!
I like the neck on #1 and the bridge on #2.
Not much in it though. If I had to choose, it’d be whichever is lighter, because that’s the main factor in picking which guitars come out of the cupboard for a gig.
