I have been looking for something really light for some time. After 3 spinal surgeries I have little choice.  I had decided that a PRS Hollowbody I or II was the guitar. I was already a huge believer in PRS guitars.  I had looked at a couple on Reverb, at Chicago Music Exchange and elsewhere and made a couple offers but never ending up owning one.

Last week my wife and I were in a local guitar shop and this one was hanging on the wall. Way up high where the nice ones are! The owner had to get it down! He handed it to me and my wife immediately said, "That is really pretty!" I played it and fell in love both with the way it played and the tone. My wife actually told me to make on offer on it but I didn't. I don't know why! I told her wanted to think on it. It has driven me crazy all week and I went back and brought it home tonight!

It is feather light and has this gorgeous hollowbody tone. There is just no doubt at this point that this is going to be my "go to" guitar.

Ron, that is a spectacular color and finish.  I love my PRS guitars and they're just the SE line.  Glad to hear you found a lighter load.  Hey, maybe you could record a rhythm track for The Weight, and we could build a jam on that foundation.

That is one sweet looking guitar.  I'm glad for you that you found this one she is a beauty. I hope you make beautiful music together for many years!

I have to admit I have been pining for a semi hollow single cut PRS for some time now... I was thinking S2 and Whale Blue... I'm even at the point where I am considering s... sssel... I can't... ahhh maybe possibly not a... keeping 1 of my guitars for too much longer...

Chris, the truth be told my wife started a conversation about selling 1 or more that I don't play.  It hurt.  But, again truth be told, I never play my Les Paul.  It's too damn heavy.  I told her I would at least think about it.

Ron,

This a very nice and sweet guitar. And I am with you, Les Paul is too much heavy for me. Always hurt to say goodbye one of your guitar, but this space is quickly used by the new one, trust me!!!!.

Hope you enjoy...

Esteban
