So, where is your PRS?
In fact, you should also NOT assume that I do NOT have other guitars as good or better than my PRS that I don't post. As I said before, there are as many bad sounding PRS private stock as there are bad sounding non-private stock PRS guitars.
Just so you know, when we read your posts, we are replacing the word "bad" and "dead" with different. Type of wood used for tops, bodies and fingerboards, grain of the wood, difference in densities (even from mahogany body to mahogany body), all provide subtle differences to characteristics of tone. Is one worse than another? No. It's subjective to the ears.. PRS go to great lengths to ensure all other variables are tightly controlled. Glues, bridge construction, neck joints, tuners (btw, change your phase 1 locking tuners to phase 2 or 3. They're way better).
I'm assuming you may have destroyed your ears playing in schitty small studios and band rooms at stupid volumes without proper ear protection. And maybe even use poxy in ear headphones which shred your hearing, period.
You remind me of a guy back in Melbourne; a snooty middle aged mixer, who's been in the business a long time. He always complains about how bad everything sounds. From mastered recordings to even other mixers in other venues. Standing with him in the booth giving him a few instructions about our set before going on stage, I finally realised what the problem was. He remarked proudly about how well he'd mixed the current playing band. I looked at him in disbelief. The mix was horrible. It was hugely dramatised in the high end frequencies. He'd pushed the high frequencies to shrill terrible levels, just so, to him, it didn't sound "dead". In reality, he phucked his hearing so bad because, like an idiot, he didn't protect the one thing he needed for his chosen career.
