PRS Special Semi-Hollow Gray Black

The PRS Core series brings together electric guitars made in the USA. These are some of the most sophisticated and elegant instruments you can find on the market today.

The Special Semi-Hollow model series offers the ergonomic body shape of PRS electric guitars with two cutaways combined with semi-hollow construction. The mahogany body of the Special Semi-Hollow Gray Black guitar is adorned with a fancy figured maple top. A rosewood fingerboard with twenty-two frets is glued to the mahogany neck with Pattern profile. Orientation on the fingerboard is facilitated by the trademark PRS position markers in the form of mother-of-pearl bird silhouettes.

The combination of two "vintage-voiced" PRS 58/15 LT ("low turn") humbuckers at the bridge and neck positions and a PRS Narrowfield middle pickup, which combines the best characteristics of humbuckers, single-coil and P-90 pickups in a double-coil design, provides the guitar with a wide range of sonic colors. The instrument's sonic arsenal is further expanded by two mini switches with split-coil function (you split the coils of the PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers), so the guitar ultimately offers twelve different pickup combinations.

Stable tuning is guaranteed by Phase III Locking tuning machines with a mechanism that prevents unwanted string movement. The tuning pegs (wing buttons) are lighter than the metal mechanics on older models and allow the instrument to resonate longer. The Gen III tremolo system is also worth mentioning. All the grooves and screw holes are shaped to ensure maximum contact between the individual components, or the optimum string break angle, so that even the most subtle vibrations are transmitted to the body. The stones are fixed against sideways movement, and the exact position of the vibrato lever can be adjusted with a built-in screw.

The guitar comes in a hardshell case.

Paul Reed Smith's PRS guitars are considered to be among the most versatile and reliable instruments ever made. Thanks to their great sound and playing comfort, they are popular with artists such as Santana and Mark Tremonti. In addition to the tried-and-tested classics, the brand also offers left-handed models, seven-string, baritone and semi-hollowbody guitars, and signature models from famous guitarists.
