I get the car thing and it is like General Motors at one time they had Geo (SE), Buick (S2), Chevrolet (Core), Cadillac (Private stock). This can be found in almost all companies in some form. My original post was not to put down the SE line at all because they have some great products and we have 4 of them (Korean models).
Mozzi, I get what you are saying 100% about a person wanting to spend what they are comfortable with. I am not comfortable with dropping the cash on the core models and I do not like buying used either. I bought 2 guitars this past year that equaled the price of a core PRS, but I have 2 nice guitars instead of 1 . My original point was for a company to not sacrifice their reputation with a lesser product. I think everyone agrees that WMI produced some great SE's over the years and I do not know the reason for bringing in the new factories (to meet demand, lower cost, etc.)?? Personally I would love to see a S2 McCarty, and i think it could be done in the $1500 range by comparing prices of the other S2's. The only reason I tried out a SE CU22 was because I wanted one without a trem, and that isn't available in the S2 line. This is also the reason I an interested in the new SE PG, but skeptical if they are being built in the new factory.
