Hear this PRS S2 Custom 22 guitar through the Marshall Silver Jubilee! Check it … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEXqIGu18Bw
Good points; never considered that having 2 semi hollow double f holes
I suppose I can see a point that a semi-hollow guitar is better for songwriting than a solid body electric unplugged but with all due respect the sound does not compare to an acoustic. I have an acoustic guitar with a tele neck and another with a neck that is similar to an electric guitar and they address the issue of playability. Whatever works to inspire when the moment strikes is the guitar to use. 😉
So…..semi-hollows are more inspiring and better simply because they are louder? It's volume that inspires nowadays? Sounds kinda silly to be 100% honest. Possibly EASIER to hear, I'll certainly buy that……but BETTER/more INSPIRING? SMH
Awesome video. Doesn't hurt that you're speakin' my language! Love my PRS S2 Semi-hollow!
100 percent on board with your thoughts. My main dorm guitar in college was my Tele Thinline!
You nailed as usual TK. Thnx.
TTK, another great video! I agree about the semi hollow thing. I have a Hamer Artist and it's often a go to for me. Not only for the acoustic properties, but the weight and the plugged in tone.
Love my Semi’s. Thinline Teles are my favorite
After 36 years of playing, I finally picked up my first semi-hollow electric this year. It's an Ibanez AS200 which is more synonymous with jazz than rock (the latter being my first and foremost style). One thing I love about it, is that it it makes me approach guitar playing differently… makes me think a little outside of my usual comfort zones. 🙂
Great video as always ttk!! So <3 that guitar too !!
Best guitars for songwriting are bass guitars. Try if you don`t believe me.
Nice video, chief.
Great subject TK ! I absolutely love hollow and semi hollows I have a few but my favorite is my Gibson ES 330 what is your fave ? 🙂
Thats a beautiful PRS man. Honestly semi hollows have this unique sound that is a nice breath of fresh air. Theyre almost unheard of in the metal world
Beautiful!!! ?? Thanks for sharing!! ???
I have to second your thoughts on playing a guitar unplugged to sort out the best sounding one. This is as true for guitar as it is for bass. You have to hear and feel the instrument resonating, how it reacts. From this you are able to assume the amplified sound.
I always decide that way when I'm after a new bass guitar.
My 2 strats are by far the heaviest guitars I own.
Sweet thanks Louis.
Great job Lou! I have 4 semi and hollow electrics. Certainly do something fully solids don't!
Ampparts is a great site and channel! VERY informative.
I have semi-hollow body guitars myself. I agree with you that electric guitars are more comfortable than acoustic.
playing shows, i like HEAVY bodied ibanez rg520qs, with locking trems, rosewood boards, they sound dead unplugged. playing around the house, i prefer strat style, non locking, maple boards… they sound louder unplugged… typically its like the RG's are like my 'work' guitars, and the other ones are like my play guitars. no way could they be replaced or switched for eachother. glad i no longer g.a.s. for guitars. got a pile of rg520q's and a pile of ibanez rx, and ex, and fender usa strats. never took to any semihollows however. tried many. TONEKING!!! m/ one of those badboys!
Love semi-hollow body guitars. Awesome guitar and awesome info! Thanks TK!
