PRS recreated it with a mahogany neck, and reduced the price tag on it. If you can pick up a newer one they may be slightly less expensive, but I guess its up to you weather you want Brazillian Rosewood or Mahogany.

Either way, its a killer guitar.]]> Opinions and Polls Itchard https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-257464 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256673 Fri, 27 Jul 2007 19:52:44 +0000 Opinions and Polls Phinnin https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256673 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256322 Wed, 25 Jul 2007 17:16:43 +0000
http://www.prsguitars.com/513/index.html Great video! All the differences between single and humbuckers can be distinguished.]]> Opinions and Polls Nuno https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256322 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256310 Wed, 25 Jul 2007 15:06:38 +0000
I have never played one, but they are definitely gorgeous and I'd love to have one. The wallpaper they have on the 513 page is my current desktop background. ;) They were originally 5 thousand but you can get the ro around 4 thousand now I believe, I have only ever seen one but wouldn't dream of playing it incase I broke the thing]]> Opinions and Polls Kr1s https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256310 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256154 Tue, 24 Jul 2007 17:55:30 +0000
I guess I could do that with any guitar that allowed for H-S-H...]]> Opinions and Polls The Dali https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256154 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256153 Tue, 24 Jul 2007 17:54:25 +0000 Opinions and Polls The Dali https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256153 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256118 Tue, 24 Jul 2007 07:49:25 +0000
The name of the guitar is part of the answer: 513 stands for 5 pickups, 13 different switch positions. You can tap 'em, run 'em phase, out of phase and grouped in various combo's. There is a three way selector knob along with a 5 way rotary switch.

The middle pickup allows you to noise cancel the neck when in singlecoil mode.

There's a killer video demonstration on the PRS site:

I tried hard to get one of these guitars when I was shopping for my PRS. I figured a 513 or a Modern Eagle would be a total score if I found one on ebay. No such luck.]]> Opinions and Polls Phinnin https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-256118 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-255647 Sat, 21 Jul 2007 19:03:25 +0000 Opinions and Polls The Dali https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-255647 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-255596 Sat, 21 Jul 2007 05:15:24 +0000 I appreciate it. :)
not a humbucker on any guitar I own.

with my strat, it is rare when I use the middle switch. that is where all the pups are on.
I have names for my other switch positions; they are more distinguished and have the tonal character
I use most. neck and bridge and the next click over, but not the middle.]]> Opinions and Polls dogbite https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-255596 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-255572 Sat, 21 Jul 2007 01:58:06 +0000 with my all single coil guitars any that have a single coil in the middle dont have the tone.
neck and bridge single coils are killer. PRS are good guitars. I must be not getting it. On the basis of individual pup tones, I agree with you. But here's a guess: To get the scooped mids tones with neck + middle and middle + bridge combos a la Strat. This would work especially well with tapped 'buckers.]]> Opinions and Polls gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/prs-513-2/#post-255572
