PRS Guitars Mira X Guitar

[SuperGuitarMark]

What key is he playing in on the clean part!!! I just love that sound!

[QXVVOfficial]

@SuperGuitarMark I believe that is C# Minor

[LakicGuitar]

what are you using in this video?

which amp, pedals, etc?

[ThePhallystorm]

The whole guitar VIBES in your hands. When the notes sustain on my Marshall DSL 2000 they hit 2nd order harmonics! Come to think of it, all my PRS guitars do, but this ONE thew MIRA x with the 24.5 inch scale has harmonics jumping out all over the neck/ Is it a ONE trick pony like a Les Paul Special, Ehh, if you go in with a soldering iron and split the pick ups you'll get 3 more tones albeit with some volume loss. It is a FUN guitar to play, and as Paul has shown can get some EXCELLENT tones

[2krzychu3]

Jebane reklamy!!

[HEADBANGBALLER]

I wish I could take that vacuum that guy uses to suck up the dead scalp particles and bash it over his gay ass head. Sick of that friggin commercial. And where is the Taylor? I ain't watching no more GW videos till thay break out ol' faithful.

[OnFireAlive]

Well this is nothing like the original mira, but still good...

[jy8times]

what is the cost of this guitar????

[iannyrockwell]

thousand plus,u call this affordable?!

[jamesallan87]

How does the Mira X handle higher gain settings? (for riffing/powerchords) Kinda like the last tone at the end, just wish he'd played a riff or two ;)

I'm debating between this and a SE Custom 24 25th Anniversary

[juliomz45]

very cowboy

[JessieBolt]

I just got a Mira X. One of the best guitars I've ever owned and I've owned A LOT!

[ript2damaxx]

i have that guitar it is the best playing guitar i own

[psychopsilocybin1983]

nice guitar... but the regular Mira's sound wayyyyy bettter.. and they're only like 200 hundred bucks more.. shell out the extra dough and get the nicer guitar which also has coil tapping

[41224jason]

what the hell. they have to downgrade everything about the guitar-mahogony to basswood, "special" humbuckers, pao ferrel fretboard, no locking tuners...all to shave a mere $300 dollars?

[Luiginerd10]

Wow, although personally, I prefer the PRS customs. To me, the have a better look and feel. Nice playing though!

[TheMDS09]

why is PRS so popular what is the different from PRS to Gibson Guitar

[HAIKELzambri]

@TheMDS09 i like prs's design... :D

guitar top,finishes and the sound is unique...

[TheMDS09]

@HAIKELzambri which guitar is Expensive Gibson or PRS

[HAIKELzambri]

@TheMDS09 err depends?

[unaibeasko]

@TheMDS09 original sound, very comfortable and versatile

[houstonjay1]

That is one hot prs man.

[Behemoth941]

PRS...if there guitars dont look like Gibson they look like a Fender..this looks like a Gibson.

[luckycww]

I'm sold.

[LonelyIslandtrip]

I dont like the way it looks but its sounds decent.

[alexandjohn2]

i wish the price would be lower

[TheKeswickGallagher]

I usaly Don't like Paul From Guitar worlds Review's of Guitars but he actually did this one well he didn't stop and talk to much he gave it a good sound demo and clean-high gain and it was well played

[ilivestrong25]

so this guitar doesn't have locking tuners?

[daisyandsteve]

Michael J Fox reviewing guitars? Back to the FUTURE MAHRTY

[0AllForNaught0]

I just bought a Mira (not the X) - differences are: Body carve is flat on the X, but has contour carves on both horns, and a body cutaway for more comfortable picking/arm placement. Mira has east indian rosewood fretboard, 24 frets, and the (awesome) phase II locking tuners, plus crescent moon inlays instead of the Mira X's pearl dots, and the Mira has wide thin OR regular neck cut ( the X has only wide fat). Lastly (but not least) is that the Mira has a coil tap - the X does not.

[leddeath80]

neck on this guitar seems rather fat to me

[CiviC092]

affordable huh? its over 1k

[lllChokelll]

Right? The SE line is the only thing I would consider affordable by PRS lol.

[viperBSG]

Hey It's a PRS. Nuff said!

[Moltisanti]

the Mira is a great guitar, play one if you get the chance

[ALKOoftheworld]

How much does it cost???

[0AllForNaught0]

@ALKOoftheworld

The X is $1280, the Mira is $1560

[Arktik83]

The Mira and the Mira X both have the £1,000 price tag in the UK so I fail to see how this is more affordable but it's a great guitar in it's own right.

[patiscool22]

thats cheap for a PRS lol

[aneyekay1]

i like this prs,

the Mira has been my favourite PRS,

bt i wish i could afford it

:(

[gnrmanmatt]

wow, he's sounding really good in this video

[Splittail01]

played afew of these and i must admit they sound really bad, amazingly well made guitar but it just doesnt sound right pickup wise, it was barely passable when coil tapped.

A pickup swap to Dimarzio PAFs sorted a friend of mines out, its still a quality guitar but i dont think the pickups really help it

[SidVicious10101]

The guitar doesn't make the notes sing, the player does. If you don't vibrato it, it wont sing.

[Abyssinian654]

On the med-gain setting, with my eyes closed, I was listening, and I do not know if it's the amp, or the pickups, but doesn't it sound almost like the notes "chirp" a lil bit on the front end of the note??

I only ask out of pure curiousity(sp?). But if someone else can hear it, could you tell me why it's doing that?

[sasflix]

Yeah, wasn't that noise coming from the nut?

[CozyMisfit]

Clean sounds are kinda garbage. Nice distorted tone though.

[dadudeguy2]

i like prs, i really do; but this guitar does not sound like its worth half the price. Before you flame me please do what i did:

listen to the sound samples without watching the video. It sounds kinda..off if you know what i mean.

[Stratacaster87]

it doesnt sound very clear to me, sounds muddy

[guitarnoize]

Turns out the Mira doesn't have a Basswood body it is actually Obeche.

[danukenator123]

@guitarnoize its basswood you have no clue what your talking, the ad in guitar world says so

[guitarnoize]

no its not. Obeche.

[guitarnoize]

"It's not regular basswood," confirms Paul Reed Smith. "Look, korina isn't really korina, it's African limba wood, but because no one liked that name they re-named it korina. it's kind of like an African basswood in its feel but it's not the same genus"

[guitarnoize]

still think I have no clue what I'm talking about?

[LordOfThisWorld74]

I love PRS

[drtyfknmouth]

Why wouldn't you just buy a Gibson Melody Maker? Its MUCH cheaper, it looks almost identical to my 64 Melody Maker (except I have the single coil version with a Maestro Vibrola), It's almost exactly the same body shape and sunburst color, even the neck. I speak from experience, you won't find a better playing guitar!

[JKryanX]

plus the melody maker has a solid mohogany body and neck, not a cheep basswood body

[guitarnoize]

Nothing wrong with Basswood, some of the best guitars are made with Basswood including my own JS1000. John Suhr calls the combination of Basswood with a Maple cap the holy grail of tone.

[JKryanX]

most peoples "holy grail" is a burst, and thats mahogany with a maple cap. but to each his own. im not trying to say basswood is bad. but like dirtyfknmouth said. the melody maker is way cheaper and if you rout it for humbuckers, becomes the same guitar with better wood (imo)

[garydupuis]

I love how you play the blues, Paul! Rock on!

[Nicces1]

awesome clean tones!

[northlander30]

Ya I like how Paul says this is an affordable guitar! YA RIGHT! For who I ask! Musician's Friend has this guitar on SALE right now for $1,279.00 and retails for $1,999.00. Affordable? No not affordable 3-500 dollars is affordable!

[NathanJackLouttit]

f u r serious 1200 is very affordable

[S34n4s4ur]

im sorry we dont all have money like you

[Ironb3rry]

His job IS to play that.

[S34n4s4ur]

im talking about the guy who said it was a cheap guitar, for 1200, deff not cheap.

[Ironb3rry]

K, sorry bout the misunderstanding.

[S34n4s4ur]

its all good

[oilpit]

For a quality made instrument

1200 is quite cheap...

[S34n4s4ur]

ive play a 600 dean that is MUCH more better then a 1500 prs i demoed.

i personaly prefer custom made guitars then mass produced.

[MannyBlue65]

dean makes shitty guitars.

[S34n4s4ur]

my dean is one of the most high quality guitars ive ever played

[MannyBlue65]

What kind of Dean guitar is that? I don't know of any high quality guitars made by Dean except for maybe the Dean USA Lesie West Signature Limited Edition which sells for $4000. And if I had $4000 to spend on a guitar I still wouldn't spend on a Dean guitar. I spend it on a real guitar like a Gibson Custom Joe Bonamassa Aged Les Paul Goldtop.

[S34n4s4ur]

a dean 79 v. only $650.

i do like tht les paul model.

it all depends on how the guitar guitars came when they left there shop.

[S34n4s4ur]

and by your name, i think your a blues fan

and if your a blues fan you like zz top.

billy gibbons played a dean in his carrerr and in the "legs" video. the bassist played a dean to.

[MannyBlue65]

My name is Emmanuel. My friends started calling me MannyBlue because of my blue 1965 Mustange Fastback.

[S34n4s4ur]

@MannyBlue65 thats great thanks for telling me, still dosnt change the fact that deans ARE one of the top high quality instrument companys in america

[S34n4s4ur]

@MannyBlue65 and since you said leslie west and joe bonamassayou can tell you like the blues

[tannerleudy36]

@MannyBlue65 well actually man i am a huge blues guy and i had a dean solteroa couple of months back and it was great! nothing to my strats though

[MannyBlue65]

@tannerleudy36, The Dean Soltero is a want to be Gibson Les Paul made for those who don't have the cash for a Gibson. Dean Zelinsky also admits that he loves Les Pauls and that is the reason why he designed the Soltero because the Les Paul is out some peoples price range. I'm not just a blues fan. I love classic rock and heavy metal also.

[tannerleudy36]

@MannyBlue65 yeah but i have two les pauls two telecasters two strats and i still bought the soltero cause it was great and i do admit that it is a copy of the les paul but it was a good guitar

[tannerleudy36]

@MannyBlue65 i also love that kind of music,, i like anything if its good!

[000021864]

Hey man God Bless You, I have thinking to buy a PRS SE Singlecut, but those Deans you said are AWSOME !!!!!! TnX bro

[steelrailsofbigfoot]

You must have a good fuckin job brother to be able to afford this!

[xxStratxx69]

It's affordable for a proffesional and nice sounding guitar. You might find a nice sounding guitar for $500-$600 dollars, but this is a PRS. True craftsmanship and you really are getting what you pay for. Excellent instrument.

[drtyfknmouth]

go to musicians friend and look up a Gibson Melody Maker (sunburst finish). The Joan Jett model has this exact body shape, but the others they have on there have more of a Les Paul body shape. They're single coil and 1 humbucker (JJ model) but you can find them in 2 humbucker configurations. Musicians friend just stopped selling those about a year or so ago. I'm sure ebay would have used ones for sale. The single coil models are under 500 bucks new.

[cholo11]

He means it is more affordable than the original Mira, which price approximately ranges from 1.5k to >2k.

[DReidGuitars]

@northlander30 the 1.999.00 is the price PRS THINKS it should sell for, they just say "Sale" price because they want it to sell. for a US PRS it's a pretty good pirice.

[GabrielKore]

i love how paul plays the clean part, hes the best! :D

[playerofrock04]

aaaaah! GIMMEH

[joewattguitarist]

What a bullshit fingerpicking technique

[scorpia616]

well lets see you review such a versatile amount of gear he does and see how you fair? Though so.

[deth6kerns]

your just pissed cause he can solo with his technique and you ant solo at all, plz dont dis paul, he is a beast and as my good friend smoky would say" and you know this, man"

[scaflan2000]

Wow, that tone is sweet.....!!!

[TheFilipFors]

Great playing , Awsome guitar! if i were not so into metal, i would totally buy it! sound Fuc*ing great! :D

[Da0wN3R]

Same :D

[greggsovereasy]

Damn that guitar sounds nice! Then again, not too surprised as it's a PRS. :p

[lettermanguitar]

I really like the Music Man Guitar Promo

ROCK ON GUYS

[dynamitesteel]

cool

[machinegunguitar]

3:12 DAMN Paul ! ! ! What's really going on ! shred man shred !

[ClamGoo]

All the compression from the uploading of these videos alter the sound a lot and do no justice to the guitars at all really. They sound so much better in real life. But let's face it, everyone just loves to watch Paul play!

[Songwriter4God]

@ClamGoo I actually like the guitars. :P

[ChucklesMginty]

I think it'd be nice if they specified the amp they use when doing guitar demos. :p

[logeybear5150]

i was about to say the exact same thing

[shipleyshipster]

@ChucklesMginty I think it would be nice if they used good tube amps for reviews lol

[jellytroid]

@ChucklesMginty most likely a marshall

[Alfons665]

i love that guitar!!
