The NYS Standard is a classic vintage style semi-hollow body guitar. Featuring an arched maple top and back, and a solid center block, the NYS allows you to coax an amazing amount of sustain out of each note. The 24 3⁄4” scale give this guitar a jazzy feel but don’t let that fool you. There is more than enough midrange punch in this design to confuse it with a solid body when called upon; and you’ll be able to cover anything in the rock spectrum without an ounce of trouble. A pair of Seymour Duncan alnico P90’s enhance the vintage tones of this guitar. Smooth and glassy, while round and warm in the mids; but with plenty of extra bite and snarl when you want it.

Great attention to detail and a perfect finish, real comfortable neck and flawless fret work, the set up out of the box was ready to go, no tweaks required. nice warm acoustic tone and then I plugged in….and wild crazy love at first strum, the SD stacked P90’s are outstanding and the pots are super responsive, there are a lot of guitars in this price range, but this instrument sits alone at the top of the class. I also own a Heritage Standard SB QM and been very happy with it I’m glad I took the plunge and purchased my 2nd Prestige both are instruments of very high quality ….

FIVE stars! Gold standard quality. I love my new guitar. The first guitar I ever liked the bridge pickup sound a lot. I’ve had dozens good guitars but these guitars are beautys.

Just wanted to share with you a few thoughts on this guitar you sold me, the NYS standard.
This guitar has a beautiful finish, fantastic tone from the p-90’s, the feel of the neck and body when i play either sitting or standing is just right, the fretboard seems to be exactly right in width, and gives me a smile every time I play it. I have had it out to a few jams and some of my friends have had a chance to play it. Those who have rave about its sound, playability, and looks! Those that haven’t played it but only admired it, have done just that, admired it!!!
So, i have been propelled faster towards being a better guitarist and musician because this guitar makes me play more and longer. Thanks for building such a great guitar. I tell everyone, who cares, to check out Prestige Guitars for themselves and that your customer care is outstanding!! May you have greater success in the years ahead.
Sincerely,
Greg Lobitz

I haven’t been able to put this guitar down since I laid hands on it! It’s really alive – even louder than fully-hollow thinline Gretsches I’ve played. Has great tone even unplugged, the neck is really comfortable and fast – great for chording as well as playing higher up the neck – and it sustains forever. The pots and switches all operate smoothly and noiselessly, and the pickups make for fantastic mellow, jazzy tones or overdriven grit. Not to mention the finish, which is a flawless beautiful reddish sunburst. I have to say this is one of the best guitars I’ve ever picked up, regardless of price. I played a $2500 Heritage (from the Gibson Kalamazoo factory) a few weeks ago and this guitar blows it out of the water.
