    The 245 is definitely a solid guitar at a reasonable price.
    Can't lose.

    I think Paul is a genus. We will some day speak of him with the same honor and reverence that we speak about about Leo Fender.

    Bought one for $450 a couple weeks ago from musicians friend. Like Paul said, you can't find a better guitar for the price which is generally around the $500 mark.

      It was used I assume? Or was it a standard?

    Paul doesn't want to tell you the real secret...that the se guitars sound just as good as the American models. They have all the same warmth...and the pickups are cloned oversees also. Basically the top has a vineer versus the thicker more expensive piece of wood. It's amazing how the human brain is wired to think that a guitar sounds better because it's more expensive and built in the U.S. Like other countries aren't capable of building something fairly simple in terms of materials and electronics. Prs factory QCs every se the same as the American ones...in the same factory. Company's just like dumb people to spend more money. I'm dumb too...because I have several American made guitars...but the prs se 245 sounds as good or better than all of them. I can still be stupid and pay more because i have the cash...or a more expensive guitar just looks stellar with a beautiful top...but I'm not going to blindly tell myself that it will sound any better...just maybe slightly different. I play my se 245 custom more than my American strat...and all of my other guitars. It even blows any Gibson studio and below out of the water. Inn terms of sound...it's right up there with Gibson LP standard.

      And machines are used to make a lot of the components and the machines have no clue if an american finger pushed the button to run the machine or if a korean finger turned it on. I love my se custom 24. Got the trampas green.

      @@Badhabitches agreed. I bought a CE 24 and core custom 24 this year too. I bought the core for $1,760... 2017 model in mint condition and then sold it for about $1k more than I bought it for. My se 245 sounded just as good as my core but the core had coil tapping, locking tuners, and a prettier top. The intonation of my core was better and it stayed in tune better because of the locking tuners...and was beautiful... but I would never pay $4k for it compared to my se when my se sounded almost the same. My CE is my favorite sounding guitar for most music I play and way cheaper than my core... but both great. I just sold my se too... not because it didn't sound amazing but because I had three PRS guitars that sounded too much alike... and I had extra cash to waste on more expensive prettier ones... but at the end of the day the se held it's own against the more expensive ones... which is quite remarkable given the price difference. With that said I've played the se 24 and it sounds nothing like the core 24. I'm not sure why. The se still sounds great but different. My CE 24 doesn't really sound like my core 24 either... but still amazing. Maybe the different types of mahogany used... not sure. I notice a big step up in sound and quality between the Korean and Indonesian models too. I prefer the Korean guitars... but that's me...

      @@cigdamagelungs I recently bought a PRS SE Chris Robertson too... which sounds epic. I like it as much as my core 24 and CE 24... and Gibson les paul studio. Check one out if you can find one. They only made them for one year... so to would need to find one 7sed. They have 245 body but p90 in neck and humbucker bridge with coil tapping and adjustable tailpiece...

    And then you decided to fit really crap tuners on them just to make sure they didn't stay in tune.
