I'm doing a quick a/b test between a Gibson and a PRS. The amp is a Dr Z. Maz 18. I am using the coil tap in one clip - when I'm playing Van Morrison's "Domino." Otherwise it is humbuckers at all times. I thought it was worth demonstrating the coil tap difference on the video, even though the Les Paul does not have that ability. Vote for your favorite on my blog.

  • Man... Your video was great, but next time, please, tune rightly the G string, ok?

  • So you have a PRS Custom 24, a Gibson Les Paul and a dr. z amp. It looks like you have skills but you don't hear that both your guitars are out of tune. No offense but spend your money on a better hearing instead of another way to expensive guitar. It is difficult for me, and probably others, to listen to the tone of the guitars in stead of the false notes...

    Nice gear btw.

  • Les Paul !!!

  • the les paul and the prs are very similar,soundwise. The PRS also have the warm sound that the les paul has so its very hard to pick the best guitar. I have a les paul copy,an epiphone and I like the warm sound of it and I now for sure that the prs guitars are the second alternative to get the warm sound.

  • to do a proper demo... 1. plug the cable from your guitar directly to an amp. 2. period.

  • Two nice guitars. Now you need a nice tuner!

  • Both nice. I prefer the character oif the Gibby for what I like to play mostly which is bridge position. I thnk the PRS is a more versatile with the warmer Neck pickup though.

  • Are very different! I give a 10 to each one.

  • Gibson is a legend, great guitars, especially those older ones. Prs makes guitars that are very good, very how can I say...very accurate, precise, mixed from Les Pauls and Fenders I think. So, anyone should get one, that makes better tone for playing style.

    I have Gibson Slash AFD and Tokai Love Rock from 1981... believe it or not - Tokai makes better sound anytime. My view on this.

  • Dale tono a la PRS... por dios

  • PRS !!!

  • prs on the first one, gibson on the second clip.
