I have recently been bitten with the PRS bug and decided to find another Korean made Singlecut so one popped up on GC's used section in great condition for $375 and I bought it. Now I have no idea what happened but for once a mistake went in my direction to the good. What I received was a 2018 PRS SE 245 in mint condition with a beautiful tobacco sunburst maple flame top upgraded with PRS locking tuners, full size CTS brass shaft pots Switchcraft 3way switch and a pro set-up.
All the 245's listed on GC and Reverb are $500 and up and again this one was just $375. I'm guessing who ever listed this for GC just put it in the computer as a Singlecut and it priced it at $375. Anyway whatever happened I'm really glad it did because this guitar is awesome even though it was made in Indonesia.

That's a nice looking guitar, and quite the steal at that price!

Very nice. I have the bug as well well. I saw that one, but I promised myself I would unload a few guitars before I take on more. Good for you.

Indonesia is making some fine guitars. Congratulations!

My PRS SE Paul's guitar is so versatile. I never could bond with a Strat or an LP so this covers those bases. Coil split. Enjoy your new guitar.

Thanks Guys I've been laying down tracks all day comparing this 245 to my Standard 24 and my Agile PS-900 I've got SD pups in the 24 and 900 and I still think the 245 sounds as good.
