Korean Line Worth the Money?

I'm biased, but I'd put my SE EG HSS against any MIM strat out there for play-ability and tone.

I played an MIM Strat for years, went through a cheap guitar phase, and, after coming into a bit of money, bought a Sadowsky archtop and an ES 335. But I wanted a basic LP-style guitar. I jumped on a Black Friday special and bought a SE 245 on the strength of the reviews and the basic specs. I couldn't be happier. Solid, well-built guitar that plays and sounds great. No issues at all and much better quality than similarly priced Epis.

Having bought my Bernie from the local shop, I would now say that PRS SE is one brand I would be happy to buy sight unseen, its that good in terms of timber, fit, action etc.

I've upgraded the electrics, but I do that in all my guitars that I gig (Gibsons, US PRS included). For the money? Its the best £580 worth of value I've ever had from a new guitar.
