Make me a (reasonable) offer, I might take it!
Found this joy at my local Guitar Center if you can believe it. It plays great and has the best presence of a semi hollow (or possibly hollow) I've heard. It projects well and sounds like a great guitar dry!
Plugged in, in sounds great too, especially the Narrowfield pickup giving some extra grit in the neck position.
There are several strange round indentation mark scratches on the topside, they are very small, but noticeable. I've tried to capture them in the pictures. Thus the discounted price. :)
Besides that and some ruboff on the upper hump of the body (you can see in pics), it's in great shape, and I've got the action as low as I could get it without buzzing.
Here's what they say "professionally" about this guitar:
The S2 Vela Semi-Hollow is a vintage-inspired guitar with loads of personality and tonal textures. Its offset body shape is at once elegant and edgy, and the addition of a semi-hollow body and f-hole gives the Vela added attitude and resonance.
The pickguard-loaded electronics feature a PRS DS-01 pickup in the treble pickup position, providing a bright, chimey tone, and the PRS Narrowfield in the bass pickup position gives the Vela some noteworthy bite. The coil tap on the tone control allows the treble pickup to split into single coils, providing a balanced tone that will cut through the mix with style. Anchoring this guitar is the PRS plate-style bridge with two saddles that were designed to compensate for intonation. This bridge harkens back to Paul’s early designs and traditional bass plate-style bridges but is top-loading for easy restringing. Like the bridge found on Paul’s Guitar and some Private Stock models, PRS’s plate-style bridge features brass saddles and a steel plate for maximum tonal sustain.
Plate-Style Bridge
Our steel plate-style bridge is easy to string, comfortable, and fully-intonating and it sounds great.
Low-Mass Locking Tuners
Our lightweight, locking tuners make stringing a snap and keep your guitar in tune.
PRS DS-01 & Narrowfield
A lively pickup combination that provides full midrange and articulate, chimey high-end.
