So someone mentions PRS. Love Santana don't love Santana's PRS tone. Don't love PRS tone. Love PRS body shape when it's reasonable. Don't love PRS necks.
Have a PRS copy. Only ever liked two PRS copies. One I own.
Back in the 90's lesser known japanese guitar and electronics company named Vesta was producing PRS licensed copies (Or so the sales guy told me) it was a 25.5 scale length 22 fret with a slim c profile neck and a 12" radius. God that thing played like honey The pickups were lame though. If I were smart I would have bought it and installed some decent pups.
The one I own is a semi made for Raven West Guitars

It's a semi hollow made before PRS was selling semi's and hollow bodies. The center block only goes from the bridge to the back it's not a transverse and not an all the way through 24 frets (which I hate) and a 25.5 scale length. Very thin neck 12 inch radius and a fairly thin neck width. I think it would be great if I just got a little more beef in the pups.
I think I paid $350USD used for it.
