IMHO yes.
I have USA PRS and also a Korean SE245 and after trying Gibson (Nighthawk and LP Supreme) I would say that PRS (even the SE!!) are much better built and easier to set up and play. The Supreme in particular just won't handle a low action without fret buzz and has to be set up almost like an acoustic. Whereas the USA and SE PRS can be set up with the necks almost straight (7 thou curve) and the action really low and don't even think about fret buzz.
I am particularly stunned by the SE245. I bought it used and it is really very good - I didn't expect it to come close to the USA PRS but it is shockingly similar. I wouldn't change a thing on that guitar. Add to this the fact that it cost one tenth of the price of the Gibson Supreme.
Anybody else had similar experiences?
