You’re starting out on top! Some info from PRS:

EG BOLT-ON SERIES II: 1992 - 1995. Rounder shape. Alder body, wide thin maple neck, 22-fret rosewood fretboard. Scratchplate mounted pickups in three formats, h/s/h, s/s/h, s/s/s, volume, tone, 5-way selector, coil taps, PRS tremolo, locking machines. EG bolt-on maple top adds three piece maple, ‘10’ option.

Great one!! One of the early classics!!
Find some tutorials how to change the strings with the Phase I tuners and do a simple setup. This guitar can serve you a lifetime!
(but most probably will create some GAS for more PRS guitars... )

Thank you all.

Thanks. I found a video. Cool System, but I better get 2 packs of strings, one for testing. Are there any strings you can recommend?

Well, I use the pretty standard D'Addario 10-46 sets.
IIRC Most PRS of the early 90's came with 9-42 D'Addario sets from the factory.
The lighter strings will probably be much easier for your hands if you are just starting to learn guitar.
