Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Blue Matteo NF 53 takes its cue from a 1953 Paul Reed Smith vintage guitar while using a contemporary PRS layout. It combines a swamp ash body with a bolt-on maple neck, maple fingerboard, 22 frets, and a 25.5-inch scale. Its Narrowfield DD pickups use taller bobbins, additional winds, and extra metal between the magnets for a focused, powerful voice. The master volume, master tone, and 3-way blade switch keep adjustment direct, with a steel plate-style bridge, vintage-style tuners, and nickel hardware.
