Hi Ren -

I wasn't here when you were here before, but welcome back. Sounds like you came through the other end of your tough times. It's cool that you've been composing!

Coming from "pink and pointy" guitars, I would think the PRS Custom 24 wouldn't feel tremendously different to you. I had one for a bit (and S2) and it is a great guitar! It wasn't exactly for me, but I won't deny it's a great guitar. Good luck with it!
