It might be some of the Cort workers/tools left over from when they yanked their production out of their and moved to Indonesia and China.

So it's in essence an "FU-PRS" SE?

They'd have all those templates I reckon.

I always have UPS hold it at their facility. It’s 5 minutes from my house and I can pick it up at 9am. They usually don’t get to my house until 6-7 pm if it gets delivered.

MF has the Epi ES-335 Pro for $379. I bought one. It's really, really nice.

If I miss the driver I may have them do that... This one requires a signature and they'll inevitably show up to deliver earlier than they normally do.
EDIT - On the delivery truck.

Oh snap!
The guitar showed up last night... I had to leave the house around 7pm and it hadn't been delivered. I left a note with my signature for the UPS guy and he did me a solid and left it.
First impressions - It looks as good as it did in the photos. It's heavier than a similar PRS I played when @smurfco was in Atlanta. Lighter than my Dot. There are some minor cosmetic issues - stemming from they copy process most likely. There is some paint bleed in the binding and there is one little imperfection near the neck on the binding. The action is nice and low.
It most certainly does not feel like a cheap guitar. It's probably the best <$500 guitar I own. The quality is as good as my Gary Clark Jr Casino.
Pick ups are beefy. Knobs don't feel cheap. Switch feels a *little* cheap.
Pictures tonight when I get home.

Harley Benton has had models like this with wraparound bridges for years without a peep from PRS.

How about this one? All it needs is birds.
Actually, I always thought birdies on a guitar neck were kinda stupid looking.
There, I said it.
So this is an improvement, although would prefer a less gaudy inlay material.
But that's just me.

and the one little imperfection on the binding next to the neck -
I'm glad I got it. I would recommend.
