Who else would like to see PRS offer a semi-hollow version of the **SE** CE24?

Would you seriously consider buying a semi-hollow version of the **SE** CE-24 if PRS offered it?

A vote of yes for me. I prefer how a 24 fretter PRS sits on me when worn on a strap over a 22 fretter. The neck being a little bit longer helps with visual access to the fretboard as well as better alignment of where my strumming arm and hand fall within the picking area and the bridge. I own an SE Custom 22 semi-hollow and the feel is still very good on it, but just not as "at home" feeling ergonomically as the 24 fretter SE CE24, for me. Plus I can get some Strat-quack when the two inner coils of the humbuckers on the 24 fretter are combined in parallel, due to the two humbuckers being closer together than they are on a 22 fretter.

I know the Core CE24 semi-hollow exists but not only is it more of reach price-wise, I also don't like the slight arch top cut to it vs the flatter top of the SE CE24
 
Yea, I would have some interest. Unsure if it would be a finalized decision but it's an interest. I would definitely be interested in at least trying such a guitar to compare my fully hollowbody to the semi, from SE up to the core. I wouldn't be able to spend the money right now but I might want to find out the basics on if a fully hollowbody or a semi-hollowbody fit me best.

I do know for sure that I'm not looking to Gibson for the guitar type, nor am I going back to something like Ibanez Artcore for the hb or semi-hb type guitars. I'm pretty in line with what PRS and I have to offer each other at this point.
 
yes PS =Private Stock ..like my Santana Semi

like many F hole guitars it has a center block which allows for the delicious sustain Santana's are known for.

2 full octaves on each string from open to 24th fret sounds awesome to me but I've never had that. 😆
Which scale the extra 2 frets fit into and pickup position related to it all seems like a difference.
 
Do you have longer arms? I'm just curious why someone would prefer 24 frets, besides the obvious 2 extra frets. :)
The neck is actually longer on PRS 24 fret guitars than PRS 22 fret guitars, because PRS fits those 2 extra frets onto the neck itself, instead of slapping those extra frets over onto the top of the body. So the neck sticks out to the left a little more.
