NGD: PRS S2 Singlecut

I have been on the hunt for a nice single cut for some time now. This happened to come up on Reverb (pretty sure i saw the listing within minutes of it going live). Price was below $1k and when i asked the seller if he would take $100 less he surprisingly said yes!

So up for your consideration is a gorgeous S2 Singlecut in Tobacco sunburst. I'm mainly a bedroom player and for years said there was no point in me buying a USA Prs because their Korean line is SO good. The price of this one was not much more of a used SE one. Came with this sweet case and a set of EMG Hetfield pickups.

Since this was a spur of the moment purchase i was a bit worried the neck may be chunky (especially problematic since i've really only been playing superstrats the last year). Thankfully it's a very nice slim profile. Great QC as one would imagine and the hetfield pickups are not bad. I may have to raise them a bit since i was expecting a bit more bite. Otherwise i'm going to be keeping this one for a while.

Wow man congrats! Great guitar and very well bought. Plus a tasty pickup swap! I’ve been hunting for a USA SC for a while and the S2’s have really tempted me.

Congrats, great deal and nice looking guitar. The S2 line is definitely a sweet spot in the PRS lineup. They have a 594 version now too, hoping some day that they start showing up used too.
