I think an SE 594 Standard is in my future.

This one reminds me of my first electric, a Hondo II LP wine red copy I had in 1979. Hoping when I go to try it there’s a difference from my core ‘08 McCarty and my 58/15LT equipped Hollowbody SE. I’ll be comparing it to a Goldtop SE DGT as well. Anyone have the standard? opinions ?

My first LP style guitar was a Hondo II - unpopular opinion here, I don’t like the gold tops, I’m more a clear / semi clear / burst kinda guy

I bought an SE 245 standard on a whim. Really nice guitar.
