For example, the Loomis. Crazy popular around here, and made in Korea.

Yes but it has a blade switch, no inlays, and the top doesnt have the deep carve that one has. It has a flat top with an arm carve. But it is similar to that one. Its a doublecut and it will come in Black Cherry and Gray Black

In other words, no.

You'll end up with something that looks more like this:

... but with an arm carve, 24 frets, OFR, bound ebony fretboard and EMGs. Nothing like the one you posted Velkan, that's a Private Stock which is in a whole different league than the SE line!

HammerAndSickle · 10-24-2009, 01:35 PM

HighGain, why are you continually downing this? Do you have some vendetta against the SEs or something, or are you just trying to be contrary? One, you can't judge QUALITY from a picture alone, and two, the Private Stock he posted actually has more in common with the Torero's specs than what you posted.

It's basically the PS with a flat top, no inlays, and a blade switch, as opposed to your example of that SE with different pickups, controls, bridge, fretboard wood, inlays, and carving. Or... an entirely different guitar

HighGain510 · 10-24-2009, 01:37 PM

I'm not, nothing against the SE, just making sure the info out there is correct.

The Torrero and that Private Stock have nothing in common other than they both have an OFR. The guy asked if they were going to be the same, I just pointed out that they were not.

Again, as I've already stated, I currently HAVE an SE in my stable (it's not a bad guitar for the price, but then again I got it for $300) and I've had a bunch in the past so I'd say I have a pretty accurate idea of what I'd be getting with the Torrero. I have played several Private Stock guitars that friends of mine own and there is NO WAY an SE can touch that, absolutely absurd to think otherwise.

Look at that, you did the exact same thing I did, you must have a personal vendetta against the SE line! ZOMG!!!!!

Just doesn't work for me, I'm afraid. Like putting wellies on with a Hugo Boss suit.

The Torero sounds interesting, though.

Actually putting it that way NEITHER of the guitars posted is like the Turrero... however the body shape is going to be more like the SE than the carved top private stock

vampiregenocide · 10-24-2009, 02:28 PM

If PRS are comfortable enough to break tradition and make a model with a floyd and EMGs, thats one step closer to them breaking down and doing a 7 IMO

Riffer · 10-24-2009, 02:36 PM

They guy who asked if it was "like" the private stock was asking just that. If it is "like" it, not if its exactly it. The Torero does look "like" that Private Stock but it will not be up to that high standard that the PS are held to. That PS guitar he posted has a OFR, EMGs, a flame top, and is a doublecut guitar. All those things are the same as the Torero. So to say that its a totally different guitar is not true. He was asking if its simpliy "like" the PS guitar pictured.

FFS dude let it go!

That's like saying a Schecter or a Fender must be the same since they're both doublecut guitars and some models have OFRs! I pointed him to something that was more similar to what he could expect the guitar to look like since PRS hasn't issued official pictures yet. Leave it at that, you're reading WAY too deep into this...

You're the one that read too deep into what he was even asking. He asked if it was like the PS guitar he posted and you basically said that its an entirly different guitar. Im sure he knows that the SE line and the PS line arent the same. And I actually know what the Torero looks like, I played it! It does look like the PS guitar in the photo and it also has qualities of the SE Custom 24 picture you posted. Jesus Christ you always have something to say to somebody. You must know everything right?

vampiregenocide · 10-24-2009, 06:06 PM

Okay guys back on topic eh

Its a PRS with floyd and EMG and thats that.

HammerAndSickle · 10-24-2009, 07:16 PM

For clarity, my point was that the PS has a lot MORE in common, specs wise, with the proposed Torero than the SE you posted. Obviously neither is exactly the same, but its closer to the specs of the PS

_velkan · 10-25-2009, 08:35 AM

Highgain510, i know the SE line... i just asked if would it be something like that (because of the emgs, OFR, ebony board, overall look), not exactly like that

and i forgot to point out my question to the guy who took those teaser pics hehehe i know that a SE double cut has a flat top, yadda yadda... trust me =P

cheers

If you're on facebook, we have a fan page that gets updated when new stuff is put on the website...you can add us there if you want (twitter too)

lp_dude_2 · 11-01-2009, 09:37 PM

We're expecting to have them in around NAMM time in January. PRS dealers should have them early February.

Andrewsonfire · 11-02-2009, 12:34 PM

john k.. the former guitarist for black dahlia murder used to have a sweet prs... The green one, all maple fret board with black dot inlay and a floyd..

some good shots of it on the majesty dvd

JaxoBuzzo · 11-02-2009, 05:16 PM

at least tell us if its going to have that "prs" double cutaway body....or if its going to be another superstrat..

james · 11-03-2009, 07:46 AM

it's a double cutaway and you'll know it's a PRS, but it is tweaked a little...the biggest difference is the cutaway area because of the through body neck. really nice upper fret access

Nick1 · 11-06-2009, 10:01 PM

I think I found a pic of this PRS with a Floyd and EMGs.

I found it after some Google research at.....

EVILTWINHQ.NET

Click "Gallery" at the top, the "Pictures". I believe its in the bottom left side of the pic with the "Orange" PRS. I see a Black PRS with a Floyd and possibly the Chrome Covered EMGs.

fabe_sd · 11-07-2009, 07:24 AM

Definitly not, since it is the wrong finish, no ebony fretboard and has the standard neck heel...

james · 11-10-2009, 01:40 PM

the red is a little off on my monitor...it's a little more red than this
