PRS SE Swamp Ash Special in Vintage Sunburst

Description

Presenting the all new Paul Reed Smith SE Swamp Ash Special, this one in Vintage Sunburst.

The PRS SE Swamp Ash Special is a unique offering in the growing PRS SE Series, with a nod to the original CORE Swamp Ash Special model.

With a swamp ash body and 22-fret maple neck with maple fretboard, the SE Swamp Ash Special is a fresh face and versatile voice.

The 85/15 “S” pickups flank a PRS-Designed AS-01 Single Coil “S” pickup in the middle position. The AS-01 Single Coil features both alnico and steel (hence the name), which adds mass to the pickups helping to create a powerful sound. Paired with a push-pull tone control and 3-way pickup switch, this pickup/electronics package gives players an array of sounds to enjoy, and the addition of PRS’s patented tremolo adds a touch more versatility.

The overall tone of the PRS SE Swamp Ash Special offers tight lowend, bright but mellow high-end, and a welcome twangy tone that can reach “hot country,” blues, and even jazz territory.
