I'd always wanted a PRS after playing a CE-bolt on at a guitar show in the late 80s. Unfortunately, PRS stopped making them, and I could never get on with the Customs, something just didn't feel right.
Now with the Mira, I think I might consider PRS again. Understated but beautiful, and plays great. I love the Wild Mint version!

Pros
Immaculate build; light weight; resonance; classic ’bucker tones; cleaner single-coil voices
Cons
The combined single-coils should be hum-cancelling; few options, but it’s early days so watch this space
Verdict
It’s the guitar we’ve been waiting for PRS to build for 22 years! Better late than never. Recommended
