    Okay? I will? Maybe next time you can provide a suggestion based on the topic, instead of trying to force everyone to fit into your narrow scope of view.

    There's plenty of reviews that say that this particular guitar line (especially in recent years) is comparable to american guitars twice the price. I'm going to trust the people who actually own the guitar over someone who clearly has an agenda.

    Thanks for the input none the less.

    The PRS semihollow has a beautiful tone, I customized mine and it sounded way better than my Gibson LP, wish I never sold it. It is also extremely versatile, even though you would think the semihollow it wouldn't be able to sustain heavier rock tones etc, it holds up EXTREMELY well. Nothing can rival a PRS made in the U.S, but the PRS SE Semihollow is the best bang for your buck and will bring you the closest.

    Oh, I can barely lift my right arm cus I did so many. I don't know if you heard me counting. I did over a thousand.
    I repped you too, despite our differing opinions. Anchorman quotes work every time.

    So, I pulled the trigger on the PRS SE Custom 24 (Sapphire).

    Wow, this thing makes my upgraded Fender (it's was an entry level guitar to be fair, but I changed out the pickups, tuners, nut, pots, and so on) sound like a toy. I'm very happy with it, and it's freaking gorgeous.

    It has the bright Fender sound that I like, but it has a strong low end like a Les Paul. It's perfect.
    I'm eventually going to change out the tuners on this one, as well as the pickups. I really love how the tremolo works, though it doesn't stay in tune amazingly well (which is why I'm switching the tuners out naturally).

    If you want to PRS get a PRS but if you want an Epi get a Les Paul.
