PRS SE NF3
Yikes! Narrowfield Pups, not Nearfield! Thanks to
@rainfieldmusic for catching that.
7/1/24 I plugged it in to my AC 10 (Marshall Class 5 x 4x12 too) earlier today & am now in love with position 2 & 4. It really came through.

An old one I recorded way back when. I sent it to Lauri for her to play over & do a video. A fine job she did. You can find the original in my "Songs" playlist too, along with this one. Thank You, Laurie. You're the BEST!

I said the push pull doesn't really split which is of course, Wrong! It does split but even more so it combines the pickups in various combinations.

Ok, man do I need to work on this 2 camera shoot idea!!! I think I could use this for a jazzy clean thing & be quite happy. I also think I could use it for an acoustic gig at a low volume. These are tough Show & Tells as my camera has a built in compressor. It really kicks in when I crank the volume. You might notice it takes a second for it to release & for my voice to return to normal volume....

Gretsch Jet 2 Bass The Truth!

Another Gretsch bass? Really? One I picked up sometime back &,,,, forgot about it! On various forums there are discussions specifically about a 2210 Bass with TV Jones Pups. I can find a 2210 6 string guitar but no bass anywhere. I did find someone on Reverb or Ebay selling a 2210 bass but,,,, It just appeared to be like these basic Jet Basses. I mentioned the "Single Coil" one & of course I me...

Larry Carlton- Sire H7, a 335 type- I've heard these guitars fight well above their weight class. Turns out,,, IMHO, they sure do. If you're not aware of some of the stats on this guitar..... It has 6 strings!!! For some reason I thought "Cherry Sunburst" was patented by Gibson, LOL. These PUP's don't quite sound like Gibson pup's, at least not to my memory. But it has been a while.

A decent compressor/limiter with a swell knob & drive. There are probably other ones that can create the swell, too. I just haven't seen them. The ones I had worked great but couldn't get to the "Swell" point like this. I even tried multiple compressors in my multi effects but,,,, No Joy. As I mentioned, I can get it using my Daw (recording software) but it isn't easy if you want to output else...

I could not find other "Player" models with the roasted maple. So I am guessing that is also part of the "Limited" offer. & yes, Sweetwaters version is in Seafoam Green. MF in Surf Green. So how does this compare to the Silver Sky SE? Hmm, I think it's a mixed bag. This guit actually plays maybe a pinch better. I think the SE has a pinch better QC overall but not by that much.

What a great little Gizmo! I was totally surprised by how much head room it had. The actual OD quality was far better than I would have guessed as well. Well worth having in your gig bag as a backup. If you want less power around the house but more control, look at their Howitzer 15 watt in pedal form. I have not tried one yet but they look cool too. These are not actual pedals but they are act...

Bravo! You've truly outdone yourself.
sort out that squeaky chair my freind.
Sounds fantastic! Great guitar and review! Thank you for sharing. Best wishes from Elly 🎸🎸🎸
Sounds good man, never seen you play a PRS before 🎼🎤🎸🎼
Nice. 🥰❤👍
Beautiful song, very deep meaning, speaks to all of us, very well do performance, Keep On Rocking, Rock On & God Bless
Thank so much, Dave. FOLKS! If you want some serious playing go to www.youtube.com/@rockindavebyron3960 This guys serious!!!
Congrats my friend, nice sounding guitar, love that finish, this would be the perfect strat style, maybe this could be in my collection in the future, GREAT video review, K Keep On Rocking, Rock On & God Bless.
Hey, Dave. GTSY! I appreciate you dropping by. Love the look of your new PRS. That blue was killer.
Update... sold three... got one of these coming now. Your vid genuinely helped me make the choice. Not that I will love it or anything, but a couple of your comments really spoke some concerns I had. So, not sure you wanted to help folks, but you did.
Look for good tones here folks! www.youtube.com/@BlugubriousMusic/videos Thanks, Blu! Now I have to go back & watch it! LOL. The only thing I wasn't sure about was the wide thin. I have a number of WT SE's. This was for some reason does have a slightly different feel for me. On the other side I plugged it in to my AC 10 (Marshall Class 5 x 4x12 too) earlier today & am now in love with position 2 & 4. It really came through. Hope you enjoy it.
Damn, Greatvanzini, I randomly just found your channel (looking for more SE NF3 videos), it’s been a long long time since I saw you in some livestream chat (KYG and ToneKing). I’m glad I found your channel, that’s an instant sub. BTW, I changed my nickname on youtube, but it’s Phil Smith… cheers brother and thank you for the video. I’m gonna get exactly the same model, MN in Orange…
Hi, Phil! GTSY. I'm always impressed how we all connect in the guitar community. I've come across a lot of channels through TTK & Phil. The Orange is cool. I am really pleased with this guitar so far. Thanks for dropping by &,,, see you in the chats!
@@greatvanziniyes, it”s a small world after all… I’m happy you did this SE NF3 video, I’ve always been a fan of PRS. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Love your tone and fluid phrasing. I’m not a fan of maple necks, but it does look and sound nice. Thanks for sharing! 🙏
Thanks so much, Tim. that means a lot coming from you. Hey folks, go to www.youtube.com/@TexasJackdaw/videos Great studio work, playing recording, mixing, well, everything! I've really been leery of modern rosewood. Pau ferro is straight out. So I have gotten used to maple everything recently. I really appreciate you stopping by for a visit.
@@greatvanzini Of course, my friend! I love your playing and the person that you seem behind those six strings. TO me, maple necks seem too “quick”. Too “snappy”. And, then there’s the aesthetic - Rosewood (or darker fretboards) seem more expensive! Ha! Again, I’ve had several maple neck guitars, but they don’t stay long in our household. Keep doing what you do and I’ll be here watching and listening! I appreciate you, GV. 🙏
your tone is spot on
Thank you, Tiny! I really appreciate you stopping by for a visit. Good heavy R&R over at www.youtube.com/@TinyDragon/videos folks. You have a great bass tone on that last live video, Tiny.
Incredible Job !!!!!!! Great review.......
Thank you, MrR.. I really appreciate you stopping by for a visit. I just looked at your playlist. You have a bit of everything there. All good stuff.
Great looking and sounding PRS...! Bert
Thank you, Bert. I really appreciate you stopping by. I'm listening to you collab over at ua-cam.com/video/1-JXPQzqeO4/v-deo.html Good stuff.
Slammed the action down into the weeds on mine last night. Just to see how low I could go? With the factory prs 9's on there, it's just frick'n ridiculous. For what it is, I'm impressed. The tuning stability is excellent, and there's no buzzing or dead spots anywhere. I'm kinda dig'n this thin little neck and the playability is great. Gunmetal Grey with a rosewood fretboard is the crispy specs I went with. She's a looker. I'd get the pickup heights adjusted to get them in between positions to perk up.
Andrew, GTSY! Wow. My action was just about right. Just a pinch of dig in room. Same here. Everything was set up very nice. Fit & finish was fine & the price was spot on. Yeah, I kind of felt the Low A&E strings didn't cut through very well, so I may indeed do some adjusting. Thanks for dropping by, Andrew.
Fantastic performance my friend!
Many thanks!, Mark. I am listening to your IF I HAD A LITTLE MORE TIME with Francis. Good stuff. Always up for an original.
I love GV tv❗ Great review on this gitfiddle Great Van❗ I like the color. Sounds great.👍👍👍 Have a blessed day❗
Thank you! You too, Darlene. Thank you so much for the compliment, I really appreciate it.
Great review and playing on that nice guitar mate !!!
Thank you kindly, Christophe. I really appreciate you visiting. You have a ton of fun stuff to listen to on your channel.
Thanks , you're welcome any time : )
Hi Lars me ol' shipmate! Nice fiddle but I like my quacky 'nbtween tones.The addition of some coil splits would make that a killer! Imho,fwiw 🤷🤘
CLIVE! AeRRR R ya Matey? GTSY. Coil splits would be really interesting. This does lack the definitive Quack but, has maybe a little. I think splits might be really good for pos 2 & 4 .
Sweet sounding guitar. I enjoyed your beautiful solo at the beginning and nice presentation about the guitar. 👏👏👏👏
Thank you kindly, MC! I really appreciate you taking the time to visit. www.youtube.com/@music-collective/videos Caught your D Blues. More please.
I have been eye-balling those things... glad you did this. I see Marysville... is that in Cali? That area was my old stomping grounds...
I lived there for 6 years, late 80's early 90s. You?
@@mooseymoose I lived all around there when I was a little guy... '80s... Do you remember a place called The shack that served french fries on a cardboard carton?
@@BlugubriousMusic Hmm, vaguely maybe? I was a teen during those years, ate a lot at places like Hal's Grubsteak, Fosters Freeze, etc. but can't remember the shack off the top of my head. All time favorite restaurant was Tortillaria Flores in YC though.
Thanks for dropping by, Blu. I really appreciate it. Yes, Cali. I just add towns that I've visited or had friends or relatives at. I haven't been there in like 50 years. Nice town as I recall though. Or at least it was way back when.
I was only there a few times back in the early 70's. Seemed a nice little quaint town back then.
Sounding great Greatvanzini. The guitar is beautiful.
Hey, Mitch! GTSY! Thanks for visiting. Mitch has a ton of fun stuff to listen to over at www.youtube.com/@MitchHaman Alway experimenting.

Awesome guitar Greatvanzini
Hey, Ric! Thanks for stopping by. It is a cool one & I am still working on dialing it in.
Interesting... near field pickups? It does sound very single coil ish.
AHRGH!!! Yes, indeed. Narrow Fields PUPS, not Nearfield. Good catch. I still have no idea what it means, LOL. Thanks for dropping by, Rainfield!
Nice review, I agree 2& 4 sounded meh .
Hey, TBone! Thanks for stopping by. Someone suggested they should put a coil split in. That might actually help Pos. 2 & 4. then again it is still really new to me so I need to keep working on dialling it in.
Good looking 👀 Guitar 🎸 🎸Sounds Good greatvanzini 👍🤘🎸🎸🎸🎼🎵🎵
Rock on & Many thanks, Dwight!!! Always digging your work.
@@greatvanzini Thank you very much greatvanzini 🤟🤠🤟🎸🎸🎸Rock Hard My Friend 🎸🎸🎸
I saw one of these guitars in the same color at the local music emporium and it looked really nice in person. Thinking of getting one for my son.
etherboy3540 Thanks for stopping by. Hard to go wrong. 800 is a great price for this & the looks are killer. I think he will dig it.
👍✌😎 Chat soon brother.
Sounds good. Let me know if you want me to do anything different & Thanks for dropping by, Mark.
Hey you look in shape!😎👍 That is a very nice guitar. I like the sounds. That was some real good playing too! I noticed the Black Mountain pick also!
Yep, I broke down & bought some but wow, are they expensive! I think my old tried & true method is just as good & way cheaper but,,, they are quite good. Thanks for dropping by, OldJong.
@@greatvanzini You are welcome! It is always a pleasure to watch your videos. 🙂
Just fantastic, so cool 😎 well done all best wishes Bowstar 👍
Many thanks, BOWSTAR! I really appreciate you dropping by for a visit. I'm headed over to www.youtube.com/@bowstarchannel/videos to see whats there. Looks interesting.
So wonderful ⭐️
Many thanks, Samir! I so appreciate you listening to this oldie. I think I recorded it around 2007. Miles Black on piano as I recall. ua-cam.com/video/YBRzvs-M9wA/v-deo.html Go listen to Samir. It is just WOW stuff!
@@greatvanzini This was really 🏆 🏅
Awesome. I appreciate your information. I'm gonna pick up one of these basses Saturday. I'm really looking forward to playing around with it
A fun little bass. Fast fairly small neck. I think you'll enjoy it. Thanks for the visit.
Great ol' tune. Fantastic performances and production! Super cool 👍👍
Daniel, thanks so much for coming by. It was a fun collab.
I think I would turn down the treble.
Indeed. I just can't get an old school jazz thing from the EBand. But,,, I think I can do better than this. Thanks for listening.
This is such an underrated pedal.
It really is. The more I mess with it I keep getting amazed. Thanks for stopping by.
Did I miss the player’s strat demo ?
I got another one coming up.
Excellent! Original tune!
Thanks, Mark. Buddy was great for the little time we had with him. When I originally recorded it, I was try for something a bit jazzy. The original is at,, ua-cam.com/video/liBVamUILy8/v-deo.html
wonderful production
Thank you so much, Samir. I really appreciate it. You can hear the original at ua-cam.com/video/liBVamUILy8/v-deo.html

Wow, what memories!!! I didn't know you posted this! I loved our collabs! Great playing, my friend <3
We dun Good, huh! Still a fave. Great memories.
Nice collab together!
Many thanks!! Thanks for listening, Jason.
A song not heard before, but now a song not forgotten. A perfect, emotional vocal to drive the feelings deep. Carried along by some sweetly strummed guitar and keys and strings. Bravo! Peace, Bill
Many thanks!! Thanks for listening, Bill. It's an oldie from Yom Rush's 1st, way back when in my youth.
Absolutely beautiful sound 🎸👌🎶🎼 bravissimo 🎵🎶 fantastic performance 🎧💯 amazing guitar 🎸

Great song and collaboration performance! Cool! - I like it!
Thanks, DarBass! Dug your Leo Sayers bass lines on your channel.
I never had a PRS and they seem to be good playable. It's a shame they sent you a damaged guitar... I've installed a set of new Seymour Duncan Alnico II humbuckers in my vintage Custom Lawsuit Ibanez from the mid 70's, with coil split possibility. The sound did improve a lot and I'm using it for the band now :) I'v added myself to your subscribers list :) :) Bert
Hi, BABG! The SE's, like the Fender MIM stuff can be hit & miss. Wow. Your Ibanez sounds cool. I apparently was already subbed to you. It looks like you have some great collab work going on over on your channel. Keep up the good work & thanks for dropping by.

Hey, Kaneo! Again thanks. Nothing special here. The intro & outro was from the Boss Eband. Basically a GT100 with a speaker system. The main stuff was with a Fender Champ 20.
