Got my first PRS this week (NGD)

Have always wanted a PRS and a Gretsch. Had both in my cart - this one and a G2520T. Got the Gretsch first but then ended up going back and pickup is this beautiful guitar as well. I really, really love the finish on it. And man those pickups are incredible.

Looking for some opinions

I just got a G2420T recently that came straight in the box from the factory. Out of the box, it’s in pretty dire need of a pro setup to fix some immediate detuning issues. I had planned on taking it to a shop next week for this but also threw it on Marketplace just to test possibly trading for another Gretsch that’s got some tested miles on it.

A guy offered me a 5622T. From what I’ve gotten from him, it’s in great condition still. It’s had some mods - upgraded pickups (which he’s taking to a luthier Monday to swap back to the original BT’s - I’m okay with that, I like the BT’s) and it’s also had a upgraded TV jones wiring harness - not super familiar with that stuff so not sure if it’s a good upgrade or what. New knobs are going on the pots Monday as well. I did note that the neck has the older style fretboard inlays its got some years.

Anyway - wanted to get y’all’s opinion. On paper the 5622T seems like a potential upgrade. I’m not married to one being a full hollow vs a semi-hollow. I have no issues with my current guitar aside from it needs a setup, so if y’all think I’m better off with what I have, I’ll go that route still.
