Here is my question why would anyone spend this amount of money for an instrument which does not yet have brand name recognition in acoustics rather than say buy a Martin?
@turockandar True it's PRS' first venture into acoustics. But people rely on what they know about the production process and quality control they are used to from PRS' electric guitars, which has always been up to incredibly high standards. Based on that, some are willing to take the leap :-) From what I've heard (and experienced, I played a few at the PRS Benelux experience last year) so far, these are very well built acoustics.
@Azunaii Yes I take your point but still I would wait a while to see if they have a retail value on the world market. I own an Eric Clapton Martin and am in love with its sound. Before I had a Lowden which, although good, did not suit my playing style as well..to each their own and keep on rocking the ...hum.....recession-hit and debt ridden reeling world.
@turockandar heh, I hear ye. I play a good ol' Tanglewood, nice medium-range acoustic. Would love to own one of these one day, but the Tanglewood is a sturdy old beauty :-) I might have a serious look at the SE version of the Angelus though, sounds really well and retails for only about ~600-700 as I understand it.
@thefuturevoice Well, when in doubt, get a job at Guitar Center. Through them, I get a 50% discount on Breedlove Customs, and I'm currently on my way to having (in my opinion) a much nicer guitar than this built - to MY specs! (:D) - for about 3/4 the price.
@raksak1 hey mate that was just a figure of speech , its a guitar i can only dream about owning but i cannot complain i have a taylor 614ce which took a while to save for but well worth the wait .

@turockandar Probably because they like the Paul Reed Smith better?

@guitarist100
I agree with you with the great great sound and also (great) prices,
but no need to rob or harm people to have a great guitar, I though to stop smoking for 4-5 years to have this guitar
or I'll continuo to smoke and forget about it...what do you suggest?

well, your taylor 614ce still a long way for me to make it real in my hand
by the way I've got a second hand martin dcx1e a few weeks ago with all my bucks I've had
It's a wonderful guitar that I'll never regret to spend for it.....
