Every once in a while a guitar will come along that perfectly embraces modern design, playability and tone, the end result being a guitar that is perfect for home, stage and studio. The PRS Special Semi Hollow is one of those guitars. This model was originally released as a limited edition but due to popular demand we are happy to say it's back!

With a stunning carved Maple top and a Mahogany back, finished in Black Gold, the Special looks every bit as good as it sounds. Similar in appearance to the John Mayer Super Eagle, it is perfectly weighted and balanced while the semi hollow design offers incredible resonance and sustain.

The 22 fret Mahogany neck features a Rosewood fingerboard and pattern profile; offering a warm tone and loads of sustain it, feels great underhand. Proudly bearing the classic Mother of Pearl bird inlays, this is every bit the premium guitar.

The new McCarty III pickups were spec'd by Paul Reed Smith and the PRS New Products Engineering team, combining hands-on research into coveted vintage models with the latest advancements in signal analysis and tuning technology. Drawing on years of PRS R&D, these vintage-inspired humbuckers deliver a full, warm tone with outstanding vocal clarity. In addition, the Special features a PRS Narrowfield single coil in the middle position, with a 5-way selector and 2 mini toggle switches, the tonal options are vast.

With a PRS Gen III tremolo and Phase III Locking tuners with wing buttons you get great tuning stability and intonation. Complete with PRS hardcase, this is one of our favourite PRS models, its a great example of the continued brilliance from PRS.
