I'd say an S2 in terms of price, but being biassed qualitywise I expect the PRS to be better. https://eu.prsguitars.com/electrics/model/s2_mccarty_594_thinline_2023_2 This guy in black might do the trick?

After many years of reconsidering I still dont like them

Maybe it is the amp as well. I play with vox style amps: they are a little chimey by nature, so that added chime goes a looooooong wY

Underwinding helps and 5% is quite noticeable. Another trick is using an AlNiCo 5, also very noticable difference. My set of wolfetone mean-underwound mean (-5%) was a little boomy in the neck until I swapped out the alnico 2 as suggested by wolfe. Very happy camper with the results. Crisp...
