IMO, if PRS's felt and sounded as good as they look, nobody would ever play anything else. Most of the PRS's I've played have not been to my liking. A few have but many have not. That's a statement on my preferences, not a statement on their quality.

The point about the most outrageous tops being too glam is a good one. At some point it just becomes silly. The tops look more like, "Look at me! Look at me!" than a purely functional instrument.
