i really dont know jack about electrics, but i bought one i couldn't pass up on awhile ago. it plays well, and i prefer a heavier gauge string and higher-off-the-neck strings, so it feels more like an acoustic. it's a danelectro 56-U2. i got it for a little over 200. the guitar has a great tone, and if you like the 50's look, it's awesome. just my recommendation...good luck finding the right guitar.

I've always thought that Fender Jazzmasters looked kinda cool.

How much cash do you have? PRS is out of the box in my book, but its also out of many people's price range.
