I have a Pavan Tp30 (cedar). I got it some time ago when it was cheaper (1200 USD) for a new guitar and the conversion rates were good.
IMO the guitar is OK. Not brilliant, but not bad either. It is a loud and responsive guitar.
TBH I am hard pressed to find a better sounding guitar in Poland for the money, but that may be due to low quality of instruments in Polish stores in general...
Are there better ones for similar money? Probably yes. I would (if i could) try out the Lorient and Cervantes in your place (I read good things about them).
As a student guitar - I think it would do fine and would get your son through music school. Then he will want to upgrade to something much better (and much more expensive) for sure.
