Looking for a small body PRS SE Acoustic

[guitarajax]

Played mainly electric all my life and looking to transition to Acoustic. Can anyone recommend a PRS SE model that is small bodied or closer to a feel and play ability of a electric? If PRS has nothing like that...any other brand/model recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Maybe a PRS Alex Lifeson Thinline?

That's what I was going to suggest.

One of these days I will pick one up - should be a good plugged-in gigging guitar.

I played the prototype PS version at the 30th Anniversary event. It was pretty cool; definitely a guitar meant to cut through the mix in a live show.

The small body size has nothing to do with playability on the neck (you probably realize this), and you do sacrifice bottom end, but for certain things - live work, playing an acoustic part in an electric band mix, etc. - a small bodied acoustic can be wonderful.

In terms of playability, yes, they’re great, but as with any guitar, you might need your luthier to adjust the action to meet your needs.
