I did own one of those Korean made Scorpion Esquires at one point. It wasn't a neck thru, but it was a set neck I believe. It had really good sustain, but I attribute it more to the higher gain settings that it begged for. When it came down to it though, I just couldn't stand the scorpion inlay and I sold it. But now that it's discontinued, I wish I still had it.
But my new esquire I just build destroys it in every way... so I guess I don't miss it too much.
Right now I have 2 PRS's and 2 teles... The PRS's are my main instruments, but the lack of sustain that the teles have compared to the PRS's are inconsequential. I find that the teles have enough sustain anyways cos I think it's more in the fingers. This came to me as I got better as a player, as I used to rely on the neck thru as a crutch for sustain. Now the neck thru is just another style of guitar to me. I'm fine with either.
