I think you are slowly becoming my favourite guitar review channel. Just very informative, cool playing, no messing about soloing for 4 mins. You seem genuine and knowledgeable.

Phil gets paid for his reviews so I take about 70% to be what he really thinks and withholds on negative comments or things he does not like

That Fiore have many lovely sounds and features. I hope they make a SE version of that. Great video! 👍🎸

Based on the previous years, I think here can be a good chance that for 2025 or by the end of 2024, for the next new SE's, there can be a Fiore. Hope there is!

Been waiting for a real world review of this and description of the neck profile especially. Thanks Phil!

That was a very good demo of both guitars, Phil - thank you!

Holy hell the review I’ve been waiting for. This will determine which one I’ll choose for my birthday. Thanks Phil!

Finally a vid of a Fiore ! .. i need this guitar !

I love that the review covers the neck thickness at the 1st and 12th frets as well as the shape. That’s a critical thing for me with guitars and most reviewers don’t talk about it at all.

Thank you, again, Phil. I always learn so much from your videos.

Great comparison, Phillip! Keep up the great videos!!!!

Great review with special thanks for the detail on the necks.

been waiting forever for this review! Thanks Phil!

This was THE review that was the most impactful in me putting in an order for a Fiore today. It really highlighted the kind of tone that I find most pleasing, even though I thought I was going to be chasing a more typical strat and tele tones. We'll see if it winds up working out the way I hope. I really dig the more P90'ish vibe with the fatter, warmer tone with the still single coil attack and spank, and the bridge HB falls perfectly in line as well and seems like it could be my favorite HB tone so far. Much appreciated!

Been waiting for someone to compare these

Thank God nobody else was with me in the breakroom when I watched this. When the music played when you showed your hand with the nylon on it, I almost shot soda out my nose.

Awesome! Thank you so much for doing this video. I've been strongly considering both of these guitars. There's plenty of info on the Silver Sky, but not as much for the Fiore. Both great guitars.

As always an excellent comparison video

Love the sound of that neck pickup. ♥️

Great job Phil, I was wondering what this new model sounded like. Thank you

Thank you Phil for showing the difference between the 2 guitars.

shows how up to date I am, I thought you posted a photoshop first. That finish is mindbending, it's white, off white, dark grey.... everything. unique, I dig it.

Oh yeah, I'm always waiting for someone to review the PRS Fiore, and here it is!! Nice!!

Great review, now I want the fiore!

Great comparison, Phil. You've got this down to a science.

Great review and comparison!

Thanks so much! You just saved me the cost of replacing my SS with a Fiore.

Brilliant review!

You are everything that matters Phil. Love your vids. Huge fan.

Also of note with the middle push/pull: Like stated, in positions 1 & 5, the treble & bass pickup are both on In positions 2 & 4, all three pickups are on.

I hope they make an SE version of the Fiore as well. It's a super versatile guitar. Very nice looking.

Woohoo! That was great. Thank you !

Awesome first glimpse...

Such an early EVH style guitar. The single coils sound awesome!

That Fiore is SWEET!

I just want to let you know that I really appreciate your time and sharing with us ... Thanks Phill....RONDO BONDO

Nice over here, ay???

Wow. Color me surprised. I’ve been looking at the Silver Sky for a while now, while the Fiore didn’t really do it for me for some reason, as I never connected to the HSS concept that much. But this thing sounds amazing in your hands! I think I actually liked the neck and 4 position better on the Fiore. Gets you thinking. And the red one looks tasty.... one more to put on the wish list I guess. At this rate I’m gonna need a larger house (not even going to think about the much larger banking account, dreams are free!) Thanks as always Phil for a great demo/comparison, you actually made me reevaluate my priorities!

I really like the look of this guitar. And by look I mean both appearance and specs. Very, very interesting.

I've never wanted a PRS before. They've never ticked my boxes but it looks like they finally made a guitar for me.

I was disappointed when I got to the end of the video. Thanks again. That Fiore sounds awesome.

Wondering when this was going to happen👍👍👍👍

Great Video. Ordered both ;)

Awesome vid can you do a tips guide on the fender super sojic

Love those tone options on the Fiore. I've got an HSS Strat and never really thought about having a neck- bridge option or splitting the humbucker.

I tried all those mods on two different Strats, but never achieved anything even close to the Fiore. I've now parted ways with Fender, for the first time since 1957.

Good demo😎🎸

For me, I am even more certain now that I made the right choice (for me) in getting the Fiore. Thanks for the great review!

Thanks, I want it.

Looks like the handle they put on amps. NICE!

Hey Phil. Love the channel. Have you ever used a Line 6 Relay 10 S wireless unit? If so, I'd be interested to know if the transmitter fits into the front type output jack on the typical Strat body guitars (such as the Silver Sky). Thanks for all you do!

such different vibes. The Fiore sounds as great as I had hoped. Like, that neck/middle tone is just exactly it. The Silver Sky sounds like John Mayer's 64 strat. So if you want that, there it is. Cool variety for sure.

Hi Phillip, thanks for the many interesting reviews. I really liked the review of this PRS Fiori and I am wondering how it would compare to an Ibanez AZ2204 and eventually a G&L s500 as they have similar wiring possibilities. Keep up the good work. 😀

My friend and I were literally JUST talking about the Fiore when this video went live. Talk about timing! Great work as always Phil, you're a great role model for aspiring guitar youtubers like me.

This guitar sounds fantastic !

Thanks Phil

Wasn't expecting the music at 4:14😂😂 Great video as always Phil, thanks for all the info.

Looking forward to this guitar. I played the Silver Sky but it didn't work for me.

I love this. Thank you Mr. Mcknight you have or had a tele style guitar in either red or pink. I can never tell from the video for some reason. Could you tell me which model it is and what colour please? Thank you

Have you done a video on that blue sparkle guitar in the background? I’ve seen it in a few videos and would love to see a review!

The gig bag is nice; wondering it’ll come with the SE models later this year?

Great review as usual. I thought the Fiore sounded way better. Would like to see a rosewood fingerboard option though.

I'm leaning toward the Fiore.

I had one of the first 100 Silver Sky. I sold it. Glad I made room for the Fiore.

Saw Mark Letteri at the Dallas international guitar festival last weekend. An amazing player.

What is that PRs on your far right side will there be a review on that as well? Please review it I really enjoy your reviews and insight.

Greate vídeo. Phil, you build pickups. ¿How close can you get of the John Mayer silver sky pickups with your build?. That would be a good vídeo. Cheers from Argentina

Nice review!

Phill, I have The OCD and The Dirty Shirley. To my ears, they sound very similar. How can I use both of them in a different way? Thanks, amigo.

Hi Phillip, any chance you could review some Sire Guitars, had my s7 for a while now and loving it!

Great work Phil. If that thing was red, it just might be my new dream guitar. Love it.

Wdym don’t get it, weren’t they always like that on any other strat-style guitar?

Great, now I have to get a Fiore.

Hello, awesome review ! Love it 👌. Have a few questions as I am a P90 style G style guitar love ....Isn’t the nut too thin ? I love 42-43 mm at nut ? Let me know what you think and if the single coils aren’t too thin and clear. I love fat sounding single coils...thanks for your answer and help. Cheers from France

Arg, nice video and comparaison !!! I would say : design of the Silver Sky and pickups of the Fiore ;)

Very impressive guitar, more dynamic and more versatile than the John Mayer model, excellent review of a guitar that was well designed and well built by PRS.

I am surprised that you can differentiate the tone between pickups, even on YT... that's impressive!

Hi great review Would you say the Fiore was more silent in the pick ups?

I just wonder how many people will damage the finish with guitar hangers since they switched to nitro.

It will be great to compare the Fiore with a Suhr HSS and a Ibanez AZ HSS. By the way nice review!!! 🤟🏼

Makes me want a Fiore 😩

Phil, Could you see PRS doing additional colors for the Foire? I like the guitar but the color choices are just not me.

I think I must be a maple fretboard guy… I found myself picking maple every time. I also like a flatter radius. I’m gonna have to check it out. Thanks Phil!

I'm wondering what model that sparkle blue guitar is over his shoulder there. I'm always drawn to the sparkle finish in blue.

Phil, thank you for the great review. Is it true that the S2 guitars were also switched over to the new finish? Thanks!

The 594 models are nitro but I don't think the rest are

Is the Series-Parallel switch the same thing Yamaha does on the RevStar guitars?

Yea it's $2449. Finest materials, tremendous investment in developing perfect string angles, hardware, all possible to let your instrument sing, making sure nothing in design and construction hinders the beautiful flow from guitar to listener. Each one a masterpiece, a lifetime of sonic treasures to behold. Here's yer gigbag.

What is the blue offset semi hollow with P90s on the wall over your right shoulder? Gorgeous

I also want an HSS Silver Sky with a 9.5 or 10” radius!

Hey Phil, what’s that tool you used for checking the correct nut height?

Does it do the auto-split for the bridge humbucker in position 4?

I didn't know about the nitro change. What happened with the V12 finishing?

Awesome demo and guitar ! Could you give me the exact nut width in mm and th E to E spacing ( mm too please , at nut ). Thanks for your answer and help. Kindest regards from France, Bélo

Reviews don't get much better than that!

I saw the Fiore and thought “Oh, not another Strat copy”, but how wrong was I? Both of these guitars look and sound great. If I were to choose I’d go for the Fiore. It seems so versatile. I love all the funky push pull pot settings. It just sounds delicious
