    So this happened...

    PRS SE Hollowbody II Piezo in Peacock Blue Smokeburst. It's a real hollowbody, with separate top/back/sides joined with kerfed linings like an acoustic guitar. It's not 'semi' hollow. It came with a nice case, setup and ready to play out of the box. It's pretty much perfect. The binding is flame maple, and even inside the F-holes is flame maple so I'm glad they didn't paint in there. It's light and resonates beautifully. I love playing it acoustic when I do my late night practice sessions - I don't bother the housemate and it still sounds great.

    Very nice, I have a PRS SE semi hollow that I really like, but I'd love to have a go on one of those.

    Thanks everyone! Yeah I’m learning to live with it. Actually I love it =D

    Then this happened! And I love it, too.

    Now I have what I always wanted and it feels pretty good. It sounds pretty good, too.
