PRS SE Santana Electric Guitar

http://www.nstuffmusic.com/p-14008-prs-santanaseor-se-carlos-santana-model-or...

Carlos Santana's influence as a PRS guitar player led to the development of our SE electric guitar series, which launched in 2001. In honor of that legacy, PRS is proud to offer the all-new SE Santana. The SE Santana is the first guitar in the SE series offered with a 24 1/2" scale length and is also the first SE created using the same silhouette as Carlos's revered American-made PRS models. We believe this guitar and its appointments honor Santana's skill and style better than ever and offer players great quality and value. Be sure to try an SE Santana at an authorized dealer near you.

Which one is better, PRS SE Santana or PRS SE 245?

[NstuffMusic]

@weriwulf Hmmmmm......They are both really nice...Just different. If you are a purist the 245 is good because it is a stop tail piece, it has a bit more meat in the body so it sings tonally a little more.

The Santana has more of a comfort factor and it has a trem. A little faster neck, but it still has great tone too!

Either one is a good choice!!

i really love these reviews...they are by far some of the better ones on youtube...but, i would highly, HIGHLY enjoy hearing this guy play something other than jazz, even if its not this guys specialty i would still love to hear some older classic rock, maybe even a little hard rock just to get a sense of what the guitar is really capable of, because in my honest opinion....any guitar you buy on the market can do jazz, all the way from a pure "jazz" guitar, to a guitar fitted with EMGs

@weriwulf It's just preference. Both the Santana SE and SE245 solid gigable guitars straight outta the box though I a guitar modder. My Singlecut SE is the scarlet red one that I added gold hardware, locking tuners, PRS VB and HFS USA pickups, and I replaced the 3 way switch with a 5 way PRS rotary knob, as well as a flame maple style headstock vinyl decal and PRS Style Eagle headstock decal My Tremonti SE has locking tuners the Tremonti Tribal vinyl decals, and PRS Dragon II pickups.

@weriwulf It wouldn't be fair to say one is better than the other. Personally being that I love singlecuts the SE245 is the better choice for me. They are a but more warm sounding and have a bit more bass to both pickups than the thinner Santana SE. They both use the same PRS SE245/Santana SE pickups which are amazing pickups. The Santana is a bit more comfortable to me as far as the weight aspect compared to the SE245. Do I own either? No but I do have a 2011 Singlecut and Tremonti SE

Got this guitar for my birthday.. amazing freaking guitar i swear i have it in black :D l

[bulenterdem1977]

@weriwulf i would consider to buy a se 245 because of its thicker body.

[orfmor]

What a lovely sound.

[Cowboy13ebop]

lol the bridge is already too hot. idk why anyone would ever even want to mod it with something hotter..good luck though. i already have to have the tone cut at 3/4 with just the regulation se, not the santana.
