The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes...
I think that traditional pushed mid-range tone that is associated with PRS is to do with the thick maple cap. The top carve on the traditional PRS shape is very deep, so the maple is very thick where the bridge anchors into the body - much thicker than on a Les Paul. If you can find an all mahogany PRS Standard, they do have a more open sound. I've bought and sold several PRS guitars and the only one I have left is an all mahogany S2 Singlecut. To me, it's the best sounding one I've had, although I think it could do with better pickups.
The older PRS pickups were very mid-heavy. Some of the newer ones are better, starting with the DGT pickups (2008?).
I'd agree with @monquixote that a PRS is a great option if you need versatility and only want to take one guitar to a gig. That S2 Singlecut I've got is very versatile, but while it's a useful tool, I much prefer the sounds from my Strat or my Les Paul. They have something that no PRS I've had has had. Like I said above, that may be down to the #7 pickups, which I don't rate. The neck on that is absolutely lovely though - especially with the Satin finish. It may well be the best neck on any guitar I own.
I suspect he might have something like Asperger's. Can't be certain of that but I'm sure I've talked to people who have met him who think along those lines.

There's no extra information that makes them uncool, just that their music appeals to the kind of people whose music taste comes from songs they've heard in adverts
After having both for a short time I realised I actually much prefer the matte finish/plain maple/no binding look of the LP Tribute.

They released a successful ballad, and a song that was on a sofa advert, in the era when elitism was at its height.
Anyway Chad cut his hair and often plays a Gibson these days.
