PRS Santana Retro vs. Prs Santana 25th anniversary?

[CS Gray]

Hello, I am looking at two guitars on line.
PRS Santana Retro vs. Prs Santana 25th anniversary.
Can anyone share their thoughts on the 2 models?
Thanks, Chris

The 25th comes with a cool case, otherwise I don’t think of them at all.

The retro seems nice. I’m not into the aesthetics or knob placement on the 25th.

Thanks, I understand that.

But I love anything Santana shaped!

Can't go wrong either way. Santanas rule!

Thanks.

Anytime. I can't comment on the 25th, I've not played one. One of the things I like about the Santana is the position of the knobs. Otherwise, I'd imagine they're pretty much the same. I kind of have played a Retro. I have 2 West St Ltd that would be similar, I'd think. Since the West St was based on "pre-factory" Santana.

I like the retro too, in a 25th case.
