I like the Korina SE, plus the Tremonti in Natural looks good too!

I like the look of the SE Korina. GAS? Perhaps  :)

Also, there's going to be a PRS amp review in the next edition of guitarist. Any guesses on what rating it will get? I'd be surprised if they give it less than 4 stars.

They're WAAAAAY too expensive, but I'd be interested to hear what they think of the tone.

The clips I've heard of them sound great, but they're usually being played by superb players (Hiland, Grissom etc)

I'd heard about the Toreno, but hadn't seen a pic until now.

Don't like it much if I'm honest, but worse than that I can't really see the point in it - there are plenty of reasonably-priced EMG-loaded, Floyd-equipped rock guitars out there from the likes of Jackson, ESP, Ibanez and Schecter (to name but a few), so I can't see how PRS is going to be able to swoop in and clean up a big portion of the market. Unless, of course, they get a major name to endorse it.

Even so, can't see it being a big winner. Weirdly, it also looks a lot like my old ESP:

Already there Phil.

The PRS SE Torerro, to be released in the very near future.  Floyd and EMGs:



ooh, that's horrible. it's falling between two stools, imo, it's not pointy/sleek enough for the shredders, and won't be classy enough for the PRS guys.

i like the korina SE too, but rather annoyed to see they've discontinued the SE One.  what is that hideous Santana SE One in aid of?!  i certainly hope they've only discontinued the swamp ash special for the 25th anniversary year.

i actually like the look of the korina se, mainly because it might actually mean i'll finally get to try a korina guitar. Been meaning to try one for ages and have never seen any. :lol:

They've just taken stock of some in Guitarvillage. Veeeeery expensive. £3499 for a 1 x 12, £3099-£3299 for head and £749 for a speaker cab!
