PRS

collapse expand iconDescription

The PRS Special with a stunning quilted maple top is a hum-single-hum guitar that delivers the beauty and brightness of a maple top with a wide array of tonal possibilities due to the push/pull tone control and 5-way blade switch. It's loaded with covered, sweet-sounding, vintage-style 245 humbucking pickups. These pickups and their placement under the strings give the Special a voice that is classic, eminently recordable, and gig ready. Throw the Lindy Fralin single-coil into the mix and you've got a veritable plethora of pickup tones at your fingertips.
