PRS Special Semi-Hollow Flame Maple Select Top: Explore Your Sound in Style

The PRS Special Semi-Hollow Flame Maple Select Top is a stunning instrument that offers an expansive tonal palette, making it the perfect choice for players who seek versatility and exceptional craftsmanship. This guitar features a humbucker/single-coil/humbucker configuration with two PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers and a PRS Narrowfield middle pickup. The Narrowfield pickups provide the clarity and punch of a single-coil without the unwanted hum, ensuring that your sound cuts through any mix with precision. With a 5-way blade switch and two mini-toggles that tap the 58/15 LT humbuckers, the Special Semi-Hollow delivers twelve different pickup combinations, allowing you to explore a wide range of tones. Whether you’re dialing in growling lows or shimmering highs, this guitar has you covered.

Superior Playability with Airy, Resonant Tone

The semi-hollow body design of the PRS Special Semi-Hollow Flame Maple Select Top, complete with a single f-hole, adds a layer of airiness and depth to your tone, making it both rich and resonant. The even volume level between humbucking and single-coil settings ensures smooth transitions, providing consistency across your playing. The 22-fret mahogany neck features a 25" scale length and a rosewood fretboard, offering a smooth and comfortable playing experience. The Pattern neck shape with precise dimensions enhances playability, making this guitar ideal for fast runs, intricate chord work, and everything in between.

Exceptional Craftsmanship with Premium Materials

This model features a beautifully carved flame maple top paired with a mahogany back, delivering a balanced tonal foundation with both warmth and brightness. The high-gloss nitro finish highlights the natural beauty of the wood while providing durability. The neck, constructed from a single piece of mahogany, is both stable and responsive, ensuring that your guitar feels as good as it sounds. The rosewood fretboard, adorned with PRS’s iconic bird inlays, adds a touch of elegance to this already stunning instrument.

High-Performance Hardware for Precision and Stability

The PRS Special Semi-Hollow Flame Maple Select Top is equipped with high-quality hardware designed to enhance both tone and playability. The PRS Gen III patented tremolo allows for smooth vibrato effects while maintaining tuning stability, and the Phase III locking tuners with wing buttons provide reliable tuning and quick string changes. These updated tuners are lighter than previous versions, reducing energy loss and helping the guitar sustain longer with a more musical note. The nickel hardware complements the guitar's overall aesthetic, adding to its timeless appeal.
