Have been doing a lot of work for a jazz client of late - archtops and semi-hollows mostly. Delivered the latest to him yesterday, and he wondered if I might like this PRS. He bought it in 2014(?), and doesn't play it much. Gave me a deal, not a scratch or ding on it. Took it home and lowered the action a bit - sounds good, plays great. Will add to the stash....

Re: NUGD - Whale Blue SE
The budget PRS stuff is great. I have a black SE Custom 24, and a brown sunburst SE II Soapbar. The stock P-90's sounded fine, but I installed a set of Lindy Fralin Hum canceling P-90's in it. Even better. If I can find one reasonably priced, I'd like to get a yellow Santana double cut (like the old Juniors). I have no interest in an American built PRS, if the Korean stuff is so nice.aka Chris Pile, formerly of Six String FeverComment

What a pretty flame on that guitar! Would look really sharp with chrome humbucker covers.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

Those SE models are killer. I had a Korina Singlecut some years back when they were available. Great guitar. Played it stock for a while before changing the pickups to DiMarzio Air Classics and changing the nut for a bone cut one.
A lot of the Korean imports are really nice. From Dean, PRS, G&L. Really nice instruments.Comment

Re: NUGD - Whale Blue SE
The whale blue on the websites looks much darker
I like that much better
And chrome covers would look nice
Also creme plastics

Re: NUGD - Whale Blue SE
Love my SE CU24. There was some damage to the neck finish, so I wound up stripping and tung oiling it. Aside from that, it’s bone stock and a really great instrument. At some point, I’m going to upgrade the tuners and nut, but both are useable. I keep wanting to try different pickups, but the stock HFS/Vintage Bass are excellent for what I do. Especially love the bridge. Mine is floating with a good bit of travel in either direction, and it’s rock solid.“I can play the hell out of a riff.
