24.75 is the Gibson standard, with 25" being the PRS standard. This is a shorter scale than most would be used to.
I purchased a "used" guitar from PAS that was basically brand new for about 25% off the new price. Would do it again for sure.
I do not need this, but the SE245 is being discontinued with the SE594 line being released, so…
That's a good price for a new one- used they sell for around $500. Not gonna buy one because the family has instituted a musical purchase moratorium on me, but thanks, OP.

Same boat as @tlite. Picked up a PRS when I was transitioning out of my starter-Squire and became a huge fan of their stuff. Great tone, solid feel, etc. Then I started window-shopping for a PRS semi-hollow recently and the fam said no as we have "enough" guitars in the house.
Enough.
Ha!
That said, if you're looking for a wonderful guitar that punches well above its weight and has legs to take you beyond beginner level, this PRS is a great choice at a slick price.
Everyone at my church plays a PRS so I was set to get one. Played a bunch of guitars at the store and wound up with a Gretsch. Tone is great and the neck feels better to me.
Would still like to get a PRS at some point, they sound awesome.
I own one of these 245s and I would describe the difference in scale length vs. a Gibson as "negligible". This is a good price on a well-made guitar. I paid $500 used for mine.

I'd put the SE line on par with a Gibson studio as far as playability. Love mine (24 custom SE)
