I saw these somewhere, they look ok.
There were some other recent models that had p-90's that looked better than regular PRS's too.

LP Jr. style guitars never fail to boner me.
$499 isn't a bad price when that's what a similar Epiphone or Gibson (with a skank finish) would probably cost.

Bleurgh. That's horrible.

Although the LP junior thing with the P-90 is quite nice.

You always have that same criticism, which isn't much of a criticism because somebody always tells you yes, there are replacement wraparound bridges with adjustable saddles, made by many aftermarket parts companies. i think even GFS sells one taht fits PRS guitars.

I agree with Gabe. I like a painted, carved PRS, but that head is too sharp.

The basic wrapover supposed to give you the best tone. It makes sense that less hardware the better when considering tone woods or even getting the best out of the guitars natural qualities.

I really like them guitars, the single cut looks good as well. Could well be a good modern alternative to LP Juniors.
