I never played the non SE version so I can't compare the two but I am really loving this guitar so far. I recently received a PRS Hollowbody II Piezo I had on order from Sweetwater. I hope to try another one someday just to see if it would really be as good as folks report. I've owned and played SEs, S2s, CEs, and Cores, and every single one was good to fantastic. (Don't judge - I gave the store owner a sweetheart deal on it in partial trade.) BTW the pickups were ho-hum and I didn't feel like they match each other well at all, unlike say the SE245. My intention was to swap the PUPs with something boutique but I just completely aborted that whole notion and traded the guitar in locally for something completely different. Somehow it seemed the guitar was attentuating itself it was kind of amazing in an awful sort of way. Ever experienced a dead-spot on a guitar? This was like that from the nut all the way up. All up and down the fretboard the guitar just swallowed up notes, and no amount of pickup adjustment, EQ, etc., made a lick of difference. And plugged in, it sounded as dead as any guitar I've EVER owned. It was lightweight of course, had a wonderful setup, and played great. I had an SE Standard Hollowbody for about a month. I am a huge PRS nut and have owned at least one version of most of their lineup (but not exotics like PS / WL / etc.) so my expectations were high even knowing this was an SE. The overwhelming consensus is that these are terrific.
