Description

The PRS SE P20E is a parlor-sized acoustic-electric with a big voice. The PRS P20E features all-mahogany construction, and has an organic, warm voice. With PRS hybrid "X"/Classical bracing—allowing the top to freely vibrate—the SE P20E projects with even, bold tone. Its smaller size makes it comfortable to play for hours and more convenient to transport.

Parlor-sized acoustics can be miscategorized because of their size, but this PRS acoustic-electric is a professional-grade instrument. Plug in and the Fishman GT1 pickup system delivers dynamic, organic tone; whether writing, recording or performing, the P20E is sure to impress. The electronics system features an undersaddle pickup and soundhole-mounted preamp with easy-to-access volume and tone controls, which transforms what some may consider a "couch guitar" into a workhorse stage instrument.

With a satin finish and herringbone rosettes and accents, the PRS SE P20E acoustic looks as good as it sounds. Other high-quality features include solid mahogany top, ebony fretboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, as well as PRS trademark bird inlays and headstock design. The PRS SE P20E acoustic-electric comes with a gig bag and is strung with 12–53 strings.

    This guitar is just plain great. One very small neck adjustment and it was ready to fly. For being smaller in body the tone sound great. Love the ebony neck, plays smooth as glass. More company's should follow PRS's lead with including a case with all their fiddles, not just the expensive ones. Thank you Super Stephanie.

    I bought the Parlor Size to help help take a bit of strain off of a bad shoulder. But ended up with an excellent sounding and nice looking guitar. Sounds great and the Fishman Pickup, though simple, sounds great. The pick guard is not great - it is easily removed. I suggest that.

    I use this at home. I'm sure you could gig with it, it's plenty loud. Sounds and feels great! Mine had no issues with set up or finish. Some reviews sounded heavy on the low end but it really depends on how you play it. I love mine and would buy again.

  • Great sounding parlor

    Feels and sounds great. Perfect parlor. Pickups are a little plucky for finger picking but still sound good

    One of the Q&As above say the length is 22.7. The description in the spec section says the scale length is 24. Could you verify?

    No. A 3/4 is pretty small. This is almost full size but more petite if you will. It has a 22.7" Full size would be 25". Please give us a call if you would like some help 877 687 5403
