PEDALS- PRS Pedals ___NEW____ sneak peak ____Yes PRS now makes pedals ???

PRS| PEDALS

NOTE: I will do individual in depth reviews when we have some good videos.

Yes they have got into the pedal game. They do a an Overdrive basically a 

medium gain with rumour says is a Klon??? Why? 

Next is the Compressor. It is very transparent with no identifiable classic tone 

like the original MXR/Ross style nor is like the Origin Cali 76 with that really 

full and warm old school analog studio Comp vibe. Lasty the Flanger once 

again clear clean and transparent with a hint of the much loved 

Electro-Harmonix Electric Mistress.

Prices ???  

Ovedrive _$250.00 USD|||Comp  $220.00 US|||Flanger $350.00 USD

I have reviewed over 2200 pedals so with some authority I can say there are much better ones that to be fair are more pricey. Even so  there are dozens and dozens that are equally as good for the same money or less. These are obvious very large pedals. A beyond stupid marketing decision gimmick. As for construction they are 'thru-hole' but like Electro-Harmonix the parts are made in Asia and assembled in the U.S. Keep in mind a 'part' can be the entire circuit board with all the parts soldered on it. In short I could put one together, LOL.

CONCLUSION

First it is always good to see a new maker enter the scene. 

Paul Reed Smith is never afraid of trying again. We might 

get smaller and cheaper.

For now we get more "Me Too" pedals. Useable, inofensive 

noticeably thin sounding and boring ...and not competitive.  

 

the fine print

The very best news is that PRS are not totally stupid. 

Pedals MUST be getting even more popular.

for them to get into the game.

The theatrical Modellers are not crushing them. 

Even the top pros if for nothing else but to be cool

have a few pedals sitting beside their modeler.

_That said what these pedals have to offer 

is too little, too late and too expensive!
