    Lightbulb New Semi-Hollow body shape

    This is an Harley Benton CST-24HB Tortoise Flame Deluxe Series. These are made in China and sold by Thomann out of Germany, not expensive guitars by any stretch...but they don't come in a kit for all that I can see.

    Perhaps a similar design in a kit has potential.....

    big frowny face.

    I like the style too, but I would prefer it in a kit to put my own spin on it.

    Gee, I like that. I don't know how, but I would find the money for that kit.

    I think they have copied Patrick Eggle guitars more than PRS.

    The body shape and end horns appear immediately different to me, from a PRS design

    Yes any smaller ES style LP or Gretsch 5420T, 5422TC, 5435T, 5620 & 22T. But also look at Epiphone's Wild Kat.
