How do these compare to the SC's? Seems these have a thicker mahogany back.

Now that Tremonti's fans are older and they changed the guitars to look more like a conventional PRS singlecut I see more dealers carrying them.

I would have never considered one before because of that gaudy inlay on the 12th fret, but with the new revamp and for the specs it seems like a pretty cool guitar, just have to replace the Trussrod cover
in comparing the singlecut vs the tremonti goes, in my opinion they are equally awesome just a little different. sc has stoptail. tremonti II has tremolo. sc's have wide fat neck. tremonti II has wide thin (aka pattern thin for 2011). if i was going to have one guitar it would be the sc bc of the stoptail and just change the bridge pickup to a tremonti. it's too hard to change tunings for me with a tremolo bridge and i change tunings all the time. totally a matter of opinion. Both are awesome though!cyndicate":5aun0nr4 said:Rarely see these for sale used, is it just because no one sells them or because theres not that many out there?

No,no,Tremonti2 is not like a SC250.The SC250 is chambered,the TR2 is solid like the original SC.The (T)WT neck is a bit fatter than the usual WT,feels real niceEven Bigger D":3qvtm16f said:cyndicate":3qvtm16f said:Even Bigger D":3qvtm16f said:I'm not sure how many were ever ordered.

Yeah, the 12th fret "underwear label" was a deal killer for a lot of folks. The new ones are basically just a SC250-Trem with a hot bridge pickup. Which I could certainly be down with.
!The trussrod cover was already a BR RW on mine... 
The trem is up-routed:can go up and down.Neck pup is covered.It's a fantastic guitar !
it's not chambered like the sc250 or sc245 but it obviously has a massive empty spot for the trem. if you want a sc that is completely solid body minus the spot for electroics, you'd have to go to early 2006 sc models and earlier or a tremonti I which i would never get b/c of the horrible 12 fret inlay. what could PRS possibly have been thinking when they did that?!viking22":3uupc2ry said:No,no,Tremonti2 is not like a SC250.The SC250 is chambered,the TR2 is solid like the original SC.The (T)WT neck is a bit fatter than the usual WT,feels real niceEven Bigger D":3uupc2ry said:cyndicate":3uupc2ry said:Even Bigger D":3uupc2ry said:I'm not sure how many were ever ordered.

The PRS trems are really nice too, hardened steel, stay in tune like a floyd, but feel like a vintage trem. Great guitars IMO.
