This has showed up on the front page of their site. A 'Purple Burst' CST-24 which is their PRS rip-off. harleybenton.com/product/cst-24-purple-burst/The old CSTs get mixed reviews but it'll be interesting to see how this one does. Shame it's not got locking tuners as otherwise I'd be all over it.

But , Locking Tuners are readily available for this CST (I put some on my P90 version) on Amazon. The same outfit that apparently makes the stock CST 24 tuner (Jin Ho) their name is stamped on the stock tuners once you take them off)
Do a search for locking tuners on Amazon, 3+3 , and you should see the Jin Ho type. They look, feel and work very well. Drop in fit, no millin' or drillin". I believe the cost around $40 bucks .. .
Crazy PRS is up to $110 now. I have bought a few sets of them , but I have no immediate plans to go PRS again...

I chatted to a guy at a guitar hardware supplier and he pointed me in the direction of some Gotohs which look like they'll do a job for me. I actually ended up buying the hollow CST-24, the tobacco burst one but with the normal dot inlays (not the tree of life nonsense one).
It's quite a nice guitar so far. I bought it mainly because I needed something light to take to places but it's decently playable.

I fitted Vanson locking tuners to mine.
