Maybe I just missed announcements, but as far as I can tell this is a new unannounced model. Correct me if I’m wrong.
It's like a quasi rebirth of the failed PRS SE-EG line.
Get rid of that middle pickup and it'd look pretty cool. I do like that blue.I'm in the minority here but I really dig it.
The beveled edges look really good with metallic finishes IMO. It reminds me of an Ernie Ball kind of, and compliments the lower horn cut. The white pearl finish with black guard and rosewood board would be slick.
The NF3 pickups are interesting. The price of the USA NF3 models were way too high so nobody ever used them, but now they're reasonable. They seem kind of like rail pickups but with a little wider aperture and deeper bobbins to get more winds.
The control layout is perfect too. Master volume, master tone, 5-way switch.
One thing I'm curious about is how the bridge pickup would handle gain. But this looks like an awesome modern alternative to a Strat that you could gig off the shelf.
