The Swamp Ash Special: A Fresh Voice with Striking Character
Distinctive Bolt-On Elegance with Rich Tonal Range
The PRS Swamp Ash Special blends the snappy response of bolt-on construction with a lush, multidimensional voice. A standout in the PRS lineup, this model pairs a swamp ash body with a violin-carved top, creating a lightweight and resonant platform that delivers a touch-sensitive feel and a ton of acoustic liveliness. With a satin nitro-finished maple neck and high-gloss nitro body finish, the tactile balance between speed and comfort is effortless from the first fret to the 22nd.
Hum-Narrowfield-Hum Versatility
The Swamp Ash Special’s pickup configuration offers immense tonal flexibility thanks to its 58/15 LT humbuckers flanking a Narrowfield middle pickup. Engage the five-way blade switch and mini-toggle coil-tap switches to cycle through twelve distinct tonal combinations. From articulate single-coil sparkle to full-bodied humbucker roar, the Swamp Ash Special lets you sculpt sounds from twangy country to warm jazz or tight, gain-friendly blues, without the volume drop-off typically associated with coil-splitting.
Premium PRS Hardware for Uncompromising Performance
Equipped with Phase III locking tuners and a PRS Gen III tremolo bridge, tuning stability and tonal fidelity are well accounted for. The nickel hardware adds a sleek, understated elegance while optimizing resonance through lightweight design. PRS’s double-acting truss rod and scarf-jointed maple neck construction ensure long-term playability and structural stability.
Built for Comfort, Designed for the Stage
The Pattern Regular neck shape strikes the sweet spot between vintage feel and modern ergonomics, making it ideal for players who traverse complex chord voicings and extended lead lines. A rosewood fretboard adorned with classic bird inlays and a 10-inch radius ensures expressive playability, whether bending notes or sliding across positions. At just 7.47 lbs, this guitar feels incredibly balanced on the strap or on your lap.
Crafted to Inspire
Every detail of the Swamp Ash Special speaks to PRS’s mission of elevating the player’s experience. From the unique Jasper Smokeburst finish to the premium gigbag and case candy, this instrument stands out as a tone machine built for real-world use, whether in the studio, on stage, or in the practice room.
