If you're going to spend that much money on a guitar, you better like it...pardon me, you better love it. My personal preference is a PRS. I play a PRS custom 22. The feel and playability of this guitar is like a dream. And with a PRS you know it will be made very well. But hey this is just my opinion, and we all know what opinions are like. So, like it has been mentioned before, let your hands and ears decide.
