PRS S2 Studio Electric Guitar in Limited Edition Antique White w/Softcase

PRS have announced the brand new S2 Studio to add to their lineup. This guitar is based on the S2 Standard with it’s Mahogany body, 22 frets and body shape but features an interesting pickup configuration.

The S2 Studio takes the Standard 22 platform into new sonic territory with a single/single/hum pickup configuration and updated switching system. This versatile setup allows for a whole new scope of sounds that are only possible with a three pickup guitar, whether you’re looking for punchy singlecoils, vintage scooped tones, or the chunky kick of a bridge humbucker (that can still be split to singlecoils via the push/pull tone knob for a three single coil set up).

The pickup config is HSS which is a popular tried and tested formula but the S2 Studio has the Starla bridge pickup which has a TV Jones-esque mid-range. It sounds great under a bit of gain and retains plenty of clarity but isn’t what you’d call a ‘powerful’ humbucker metal pickup. Though it definitely has a bit of a kick when you crank the volume up!

You’ve then got a Type-D Singlecoil pickup in the middle and neck position. These pickups were used in the PRS Vela and proved to be an absolute hit. They’ve got the chime and brightness of a singlecoil with bass response in spades. Perfect for rhythm players or anyone after that S-type sound.

Lastly, you’ve got a PRS classic tremolo to give you an incredibly versatile instrument that truly can handle any style of music thrown at it. With the 5-way selector and all of those pickup sounds at your fingertips, this could easily be your ‘desert island’ guitar.

Comes with a PRS Softcase.
