Paul Reed Smith Special Semi-Hollow - Purple Mist with Hard Shell Case
The Paul Reed Smith Special Semi-Hollow - Purple Mist: Unparalleled Versatility and Sonic Depth
A Unique Blend of Tone and Style
The PRS Special Semi-Hollow is a dream instrument for players seeking tonal versatility and rich sonic character. Featuring a humbucker/Narrowfield/humbucker pickup configuration, this guitar delivers twelve pickup combinations that accommodate nearly any style or sound. The PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers offer smooth, vintage-inspired tones, while the Narrowfield middle pickup provides single-coil clarity without the hum. The semi-hollow body, complete with a single f-hole, adds an airy resonance and depth, making this guitar a standout in both sound and feel.
Seamless Tone-Shaping Capabilities
Equipped with a 5-way blade switch and two mini-toggles for coil tapping, the Special Semi-Hollow allows players to effortlessly switch between humbucking and single-coil settings. The carefully designed circuitry ensures even volume levels across all settings, giving you the freedom to explore its vast tonal palette. Roll back the tone control for growling low-end or turn it up for shimmering highs-the tonal possibilities are virtually endless.
Premium Construction for Maximum Playability
Crafted with a maple top and mahogany back, the Special Semi-Hollow is built to resonate beautifully and sustain effortlessly. Its 22-fret mahogany neck features PRS's Pattern profile for a comfortable grip and smooth playability, while the rosewood fretboard with bird inlays adds a touch of PRS elegance. The 25" scale length provides the perfect balance between clarity and warmth, making it ideal for lead work and rhythm playing alike.
Revolutionary Hardware for Enhanced Performance
The PRS Gen III Patented Tremolo bridge offers precise tuning stability and exceptional player ergonomics. Coupled with the updated Phase III locking tuners with lightweight wing buttons, this guitar promotes superior tone transfer for a louder, more resonant instrument. These tuners, redesigned for 2024, also feature a design inspired by PRS's iconic bird wingspan motif, combining form and function in one elegant package.
Designed for Professionals and Enthusiasts Alike
Whether you're a seasoned performer or a passionate enthusiast, the Special Semi-Hollow delivers a premium playing experience. From its meticulous craftsmanship to its stunning Purple Mist finish, this guitar is as visually striking as it is sonically versatile. Included with the instrument is a high-quality hardshell case, ensuring your guitar stays protected wherever your music takes you.
