MESA BOOGIE Express 5:50
PRS 20th anniversary custom 24
HFS Treble pickup and Vintage Bass Humbuckers 5 Rotary switch
“TONE QUESTIONS”
So I just bought this brand spanking new PRS guitar that has been sitting in its case since March 2006 it’s a ten top custom 24. My question; is it me or just the guitar? The tone I’m getting is a “thin” sound, but I want a smooth rich little thicker sound how can this be possible? I’m playing the guitar through a Mesa Boogie Express 5:50, I’m also using my Boss digital delay (dd7) and my Ibanez tube screamer (TS9). My 2005 PRS Santana Se has a bit thicker sound not so light or thing compare to my new PRS 20th anniversary custom 24, I had both guitars professionally set up with 11 gauge strings both using Pure Blues, I love the way my Santana Se sounds but my new PRS custom 24 feels like its playing on just the treble pickups. Please let me know if this is normal, for the guitar to sound real light almost if was just playing on treble? I did try messing with adjusting the tones, and turning up the bass on the amp but I’m still getting that real Light sound. Please help me out is it normal for the guitar to sound too thin or do I need to make some tube adjustments to the amp? Thanks!!
