This is, hands down, a very good proposition; making something personal from PRS' Private Stock lineup, more affordable, more within reach. Paul's Guitar has a very McCarty vibe to it while keeping things in line with the SE philosophy- hence the largely flat top design with beveled surrounds. We also get that mini toggle coil split units for more tonal options. OK, it's definitely the best among the three mentioned here.
This one's a limited run, only 1,000 world-wide. If you don't already know what this is about by virtue of that graphic on the body, you are really... Never mind.
The last & definitely the most disconcerting from the way I see it, the Santana SE is now offered as a singlecut iteration. This reeks of desperation because the label is riding on another label, the Santana name, to push things through. In the SE realm, the Santana monicker means nothing when it comes to identity. Throughout the years, the Santana SE had never been the more affordable take of the real deal; it's always mutated to manifest its own quirk so why bother with the Santana tag anyway.
