PRS Special 22 Semi-Hollow Wood Library
This guitar is in absolute Mint condition. 2nd owner / collector. Guitar has never been played live. Abalone inlays, very few of these guitars were spec’d with this feature!
The 2020 PRS Wood Library Special 22 Semi-Hollow is a highly versatile, dealer-spec’d instrument that bridges the gap between the standard PRS Core line and the ultra-premium Private Stock program. Because this is a Wood Library run, authorized dealers hand-selected upgraded timbers—such as premium 10-Top flame or quilt maple and rare neck or fingerboard materials—that are not available on standard production models. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]The defining characteristic of the Special 22 is its HHH (Hum-Single-Hum) configuration, delivering up to 12 distinct tonal combinations. [1, 2, 3]Core Specifications & Features
- Body Type: Semi-hollow with a single F-hole, delivering an airy, resonant acoustic depth.
- Top Wood: Carved 10-Top Figured Flame or Quilt Maple (impeccable figuring and precise book-matching).
- Scale Length: 25" with 22 frets.
- Neck Carve: Pattern profile (an evolution of the classic Wide/Fat shape).
- Hardware: Gen III Patented Tremolo and Phase III locking tuners (usually in hybrid gold/nickel or smoked black). [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Tonal Electronics (The Magic Number 12)The layout allows you to move seamlessly between heavy humbucking growls and glassy single-coil chime:[1]
- Pickups: Two 58/15 MT (Multi-Tap) humbuckers in the neck and bridge, paired with a PRS Narrowfield in the middle position.
- Switching: A 5-way blade switch selects the standard positions.
- Mini-Toggles: Two mini-switches independently coil-tap each 58/15 MT humbucker. The "Multi-Tap" design compensates for volume drops, keeping your output perfectly balanced when splitting the coils.[1, 2, 3]
Wood Library Variations (Dealer Additions)Because these are small-batch dealer runs (typically 10 units per order), the exact wood combination on a 2020 model will vary depending on which shop originally commissioned it. Common variations found in the 2020 batch include: [1, 2]
- The Neck & Fretboard: Many 2020 runs featured highly figured Flame Maple or Torrefied (roasted) Maple necks paired with premium Brazilian Rosewood or Ebony fingerboards.
- Back Woods: While most utilize standard Mahogany, some rare runs features lightweight Korina or 3-piece Swamp Ash back
