maggior & markm092 - Can you guys expand on the your comments about PRS guitars; "...tried to sound like an LP or sound like a strat (with coil taps engaged), but didn't quite do either. I think a better approach would be for it to just sound like itself." And, "I so agree with you..."

If a PRS neither sounds like an LP nor a strat, it sounds like itself (a PRS)...or not? But more importantly, what is it about the sound you're not so hot on? One particular model or all of 'em? Could hearing PRS's live vs. video make a substantial difference?
"It takes a lot of devotion and work, or maybe I should say play, because if you love it, that's what it amounts to. I haven't found any shortcuts, and I've been looking for a long time."
