- • Push/pull tone control, while functional, can feel a bit basic for advanced tonal shaping.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Wide Thin' is notably wider than the vintage-style PRS profiles, but thinner than the Pattern Regular, offering a modern feel that's generally comfortable.
While designed for higher gain, the pickups offer surprisingly usable clean tones when rolled back; the neck pickup especially provides a warm, mellow response.
The Holcomb Blue Burst finish is a satin nitrocellulose, so it’s relatively durable but still benefits from occasional polishing to maintain its luster.
