Hi,
I own a ZM SE model, but out of pure vanity, I want to get my self a US made PRS that has similar features. Not exactly, but close. I am looking for a second hand guitar and because there are trillion different models, I'm hoping you can help me out. These are the features that I love in my ZM and if possible, I'd like to have these features in the next guitar as well:
-it's very lightweight
-wide-fat neck is perfect
-24.5" scale length feels excellent. Previously I have played only 25.5" guitars and the shorter scale makes fingering much easier for me. I have tried a couple of times 25" scale PRS, but I really don't remember how did the scale feel in my hands.
-I like the acoustic sound of ZM. I can practice late in evening and hear myself good enough. Sounds much better than solid body guitars.
-I like the 2 vols + 2 tones, but definitely could live with single vol and tone
I don't need birds and ten tops. I like the style of some simple McCarty models. No bells and whistless, no batteries, no piezoz etc. I have no experience in pattern necks and therefore I have ruled out all guitars which are not with wide-fat neck carve. I wish I had the chance to try out a pattern neck.
What are my options if I want to have a US made PRS with 24.5" scale? Have any of the Hollowbody models ever been made with the shorter scale?
Thanks if you have any comments or ideas what should I look for.
