The new SoapSE (dubbed the SE Soapbar II) is now up on the PRS website.

Looks exactaly the same, except new colors, and double cutaway.

I have to say I prefer it and was not a fan of the single cut anyway.

PRS need to stick with their established shapes and even get a couple of new SE guitars and stop trying to copy gibson.

They need to get a picture of the antique white up pronto. But in the meantime, I quite like the black - it looks so much better than the black SSE with pickguard.

That is real classy, I'm pretty sure if I was starting all over again I would get that over my SSE.

But now I'm spoiled, so when GAS strikes, its american GAS

I wish they would make a TRUE Santana SE, using the body shape of the Santana.

Ooooh yeah. That would make me whip out the plastic faster than the creepy old guy in the park who likes to whip out... sorry, way off topic there. :o

Cool! Count me as another that likes this offering better than the SC SE Soap.

Well call me a minority as I prefered SC Soap to the second version. Although they are atleast offering it in white *this time**. :mad:

I'm not a soapie guy, but going on looks alone, I like both SE's, double and singlecut, not much difference to me.

Tobacco burst is classy. It looks very woody, and with the p-90's it's got to have some serious mojo happening.


I WOULD like to see PRS diversify their body styles a bit more, though, like McNaught or.. Gibson. Right now they have that shape, and the Santana shape..

I would actually really like to see the PRS take on a Jazzmaster. :)

I recall in the original thread how a number of people expressed interest in the antique white Soapbar II, but PRS decided to tease us by only revealing the black and tobacco sunburst. In my impatience, I decided to PS it for this forum - complete with Brazilian background and BaM address to limit stealing. ;)

Looks pretty good, but you have to worry when the legal bit at the bottom of page is getting to be as long as the guitar spec :D

ya a santana se in the "santana" body shape would put a dent in my wallet.......is the soapbar2 the same price as the sc?

When are these scheduled to come out? I would love a McSoapy (well at a certain price point). I wonder if the antique white would be an opaque or translucent finish. In all honesty, I never really cared for the SC version and would have much preferred a doublecut version. Besides, I have a set of Fralin P90's just aching to be installed:D
I'd imagine it would the same opaque antique white as on the SE EG, so that's what I used for my Photoshop up there.

Ya know, I would say that I also prefer the SC version of the SoapSE... BUT, after seeing the Paintshopped one in white... wow! I LOVE the looks of that one! Thanks Pete, for causing me to waver! :)

You're welcome! Of course, one can never have too many guitars, so the solution is simply to have both varations. ;)

I'm another one of the minority who prefers the sc soapbar. It has a Tele vibe that I dig. I'm glad there is another option available for the rest, however.

These are the best value out there IMO. Also turned me on to P90's after all these years.
