The Paul Reed Smith Santana MD has some real history behind it, as Carlos Santana has been using PRS guitars since the company's infancy. This double-cutaway solidbody features a carved flame maple top, mahogany back, and mahogany neck with long tenon and nice dark rosewood fingerboard.
I don't use the MD tone circuit, cause it has not enough balls....
I changed to Antiquities, they sound much better than the stock MD pups.
Main reason for buying this guitar was the great fat neck, 24 fretboard and the easy access to the upper frets. The shape, which reminds me on the double cut Gibsons, is well balanced and most ergonomic....
