I've been looking at the PRS Hollowbody I for about a month now...does anyone know how much a PRS usually runs?

umm... my friends PRS went for $4k.... i really dont think its worth it though... beautiful looking guitar but the sound leaves something to be desired.

my brother got his for about 1200, but that was on a HUGE sale and he rarely plays it

beware of these guitars, be very careful when considering the purchase of one of these

not a fan of Godin...looks count for me...and I hate all those "trans-blue" and "trans-whatever" colors...I like mine strictly "blonde" or koa'd.

not really, but it doesn't really have any features that stand out on it. its just a little TOO versatile. its okay at getting different types of sounds, but not great at one particular thing.

i actually love playing my brother's guitar, but i wouldn't want to own one. also, if you get one with locking heads already on it, the strings are a bitch to change
