Yeah, I understand; 8s sound a little thin. On the other hand they're really easy to bend :) Anyway I hope this gets sorted to your satisfaction.

I'm just curious how you determined it came with 9s? Short of using a micrometer it can be hard to tell. I mention it on the off chance that it actually came with 10s or 9.5s - that could explain the nut binding. You could consider putting on a set of 8s to see if it fixes the problem. Edit...

Have you considered restringing it? SEs normally come with 9s.

In that case I would continue to continue to talk to PRS for support under the warranty.

Have you considered just returning it?

One nice thing about a semi-hollow body is that it has some sound without being plugged in.

Are you suggesting he has a knock off?

If you're comfortable playing the 10-46 string set and you like the sound you're good to go.

One easy upgrade is a set of strap locks. I like being able to take the strap off when the guitar is in the case plus you can easily switch straps if you like having / using more than one.

To make the note less sharp I believe he needs to lengthen the string, meaning he has to move the bridge away from the bridge pickup.

The Custom 24 SE has a wide/thin neck and a floating bridge. The Pauls SE has a wide/fat neck and a fixed bridge. Neck profile is a personal preference - you have to play it to know if it works for you. You can add a whammy bar to the floating bridge if that's your thing :). On the other...

Such nice wood! Is it one of these? PRS GUITARS UNVEILS LIMITED EDITION RECLAIMED WOOD GUITARS https://www.prsguitars.com/news/story/prs_guitars_unveils_limited_edition_reclaimed_wood_guitars#:~:text=PRS Guitars is proud to,more than 100 years old.

Nice guitar, and beautifully restored VW Bug. Does it have the stock air cooled engine? I remember it was a good idea to put external oil coolers on those ;)

The pictures are nice. I'm a fan of the stop-tail and I like that you can set intonation for each string like a Gibson tune-o-matic. :)

Looks great! I'm tempted, but I really need to play one first. I have a Custom 24 SE and I really like the wide-thin neck. I have to see what the wide-fat neck on the Paul's SE is like before I can decide.
