Chris Robertson Black Stone Cherry Signature model
I cant see this being a big seller and I understand its a UK only model? Surely the market for this is in the US? Looks nice and a great spec, he's an awesome player too - but who is going to spend that sort of money on a PRS SE?

ill be buying a tone pros for mine instead.
I think I read somewhere that they do short runs of some of these artist models and then order more built as they sell rather than make a ton of them. If world guitars make batches of 25 then its a good way to keep the PRS brand in the media and experiment with artist links and models.
Definitely a nice model - just that cost is eye watering! The Bridge you are referring to is the USA spec one?, not sure if they are USA made or made by Gotoh in Japan etc but i understand its different origin to the one on this and the Zach Myers model.
Everything is expensive now anyway, more-so this year especially (currency rates partly to blame), but at least most things in this price range are good quality currently.
I like the SEs I've played and all, but a US PRS is likely to be a better instrument, and personally I prefer the stripped-down look of the S2s to all the flamey crap.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
Seems PRS are starting to fall into the same trap.
Pound for pound Korean guitars are usually better than US ones. People will swear that e.g. LTD 1000s are better than most Gibson Les Pauls so a £900 PRS SE is probably fantastic if you like that sort of thing.
Think what u could get second hand for that money
Black Stone Cherry are FAR bigger in the UK than in the USA or anywhere else in the world. Headliners over here, they play 2nd or 3rd down the bill in their homeland to smaller audiences.
I too balked at the price though. Fancy hardware or not, the price will always rightly or wrongly be measured against an SE245, which most shops are struggling to shift at £399 new.
