Don't flame me too hard for this. I'm total newb here buying first and only guitar to learn to play. I've read all relevant threads on here I could find. Will learn by playing rocksmith and youtube videos. I ran across PRS SE by reading how good value they are, and hearing some sound comparisons. I'm considering a used 2012+ se 24 (come with coil split) vs a se 245, any others?
I have a small space, and would get enough guitar to start then have to upgrade later. If I end up not using, I'll sell it.

Few questions/issues:
I know they are different scale, but I have no idea how that impacts me.
Since its my only guitar, se 24 with coil split would be more versatile?
Here’s Rocksmith’s playlist 2014 + DLC. I’ve read comments on here that se 24 sound is more modern, would that fit better?.

I've heard a lot of good things about the stop tail tone, but se 24 is tremolo only.
Since I'm buying used, would the stop tail 245 be a safer purchase for someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing (but willing to learn).
Is buying used something a newbie should avoid? Can't tell if it's screwed up.
There is Drop D in rocksmith, this review says fixed bridge (i assume = stop tail) guitars work better with it.
