Semi-Acoustic PRS S2 Vela with Satin Nitro Finish
As a semi-acoustic version of the popular Vela Offset model, the PRS S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Satin Vintage Cherry impresses with characterful tone colors and a coherent modern-retro design. While the mahogany body with resonance chambers provides an airy timbre, the set "Pattern Regular" neck offers comfortable playing characteristics in all positions. With a PRS Type-D single coil on the neck and a PRS Designed DS-01 humbucker on the bridge, the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Satin delivers a wide-ranging tonal spectrum from glassy cleans to Overdrive with the perfect dose of dirt. A PRS plate-style bridge and low mass Locking tuners complete the features of the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Satin Vintage Cherry electric guitar by PRS.
The PRS S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Satin Vintage Cherry impresses with an on-point modern-retro design as well as first-class sound and playing characteristics.
The "Pattern Regular" neck and the resonant chambered body of the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow are made of mahogany and glued together.
Handy guitar with lively sound
The elegant modern-retro design of the S2 Vela Satin Semi-Hollow combines a coherent look with first-class playing and sound characteristics. Large resonance chambers in the mahogany body and the ultra-thin nitrocellulose finish promise a lively sound with a warm acoustic timbre. The glued mahogany neck in the pleasantly strong "Pattern Regular" profile also creates the best conditions for implementing classic and modern playing techniques on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
An S2 Type-D neck single-coil and a DS-01 humbucker deliver diverse tones with a distinctly vintage character.
PRS Vintage-Style Pickups
The electric sound transformation of the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Satin is handled by two PRS pickups perfectly matched to the model, which skillfully capture the lively tonal character of the semi-acoustic construction. In neck position, the PRS S2 Type-D Single Coil with fat pole pieces delivers a round sound with pleasant vintage warmth and well-measured brilliance in the treble. The PRS Designed DS-01 humbucker in bridge position, on the other hand, surprises with a bell-like sound that is not only suitable for singing Overdrive but also perfectly showcases clean sounds. Besides the option to split the bridge pickup, the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow offers traditional passive electrics with 3-way pickup switch and general volume and tone controls to adjust the sound.
On the headstock of the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow, low mass locking tuners guarantee precise and stable tuning.
Indestructible PRS hardware
Last but not least, Paul Reed Smith equips the S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Satin Vintage Cherry with indestructible Hardware that combines a dignified retro look with unlimited reliability. Featuring a special design with two brass triple tail pieces, the PRS PlateStyle bridge supports the guitar's lively tonal character while promising clean intonation. The low mass Locking tun ers on the headstock of the electric guitar not only guarantee high tuning stability, but also allow string changes in record time.
