re: Guitar buying question

I currently own a Epiphone Les Paul custom that Ive had for 12 years give or take. Previously I have owned a few other epiphone les pauls, fender strats and various ibanez axes that were decent.
In my opinion its all in the feel, for me particularly the feel is in the neck. Ive always wanted to try a PRS guitar but I am a believer that you get what you pay for. And Id hate to waste the money on the cheapest model. Im sure you wont get a terrible guitar for 400, particularly if you buy a upscale used guitar, but buying a new 400 guitar I would not expect top notch.
I am also not a fan of all the new "signature" guitars that are coming out just to make more money from a set of pickups put into a base model. seems silly.
in the end; my advice.. buy what feels right, everyones opinion will be different because its all subjective what feels good to them

You could get a PRS SE 245 for around this much, and they are excellent guitars for the money. I don't really know how they are able to do it at that price point.
You could get a Mexican strat too.
With guitars there is definitely diminishing marginal returns on money spent. A 3000 dollar guitar is not really six times better than a 500 dollar guitar.
