Particularly flexible electric guitar in typical PRS style
The PRS Special Semi-Hollow Eriza Verde combines the characteristic appointments of Paul Reed Smith's Maryland fine manufacture with a particularly rich sound spectrum for almost any musical style. While the resonant Semi-Hollow body made of mahogany and flamed maple together with the flexible triple humbucker setup and the flexible switching deliver multifaceted clean and overdrive sounds, the pleasantly powerful "Pattern" mahogany neck promises excellent playing characteristics from the first to the last fret. Paul Reed Smith naturally completes the Special Semi-Hollow Eriza Verde with in-house Hardware in the form of the Gen III Tremolo and tuning stable Phase III Locking tuners.
The PRS Special Semi-Hollow Eriza Verde is a particularly versatile guitar with typical PRS appointments and the right sound for almost any genre.
The glued "Pattern" mahogany neck gives the Special Semi-Hollow first-class playing characteristics.
Resonant guitar in typical PRS style
The design of the Special Semi-Hollow is clearly based on the legendary Custom 22 and promises a particularly resonant sound without sacrificing playability thanks to the special construction method. The mahogany body with generous resonance chambers and the curly maple top with F-hole color the sound with a woody-acoustic timbre. The pleasantly rounded and powerful "pattern" profile of the set mahogany neck also fits comfortably in the hand, allowing any playing technique to be implemented with ease on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. For marking the layers naturally serve the coveted PRS Birds.
Two PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers and the narrowfield pickup in the middle position, together with the flexible circuit, deliver a rich sound.
Triple humbucker setup and flexible circuitry
To elicit a particularly flexible sound spectrum from the guitar amp between glassy cleans and juicy Overdrive, PRS equips the Special Semi-Hollow with an especially flexible pickup setup of three in-house humbuckers. In the neck and bridge positions, PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers with moderate Output deliver authentic Vintage tones that not only boast the optimal balance of warmth and airy dynamics, but also skillfully capture the timbre of the semi-acoustic construction. In the middle position, on the other hand, the innovative narrowfield humbucker promises bell-like tones with a clear single coil character without any annoying background noise. The flexible circuit with volume and tone controls, a 5-way switch for pickup selection and two mini-switches for individual splitting of the 58/15 LT humbucker calls here multifaceted sound nuances.
PRS Phase III locking tuners with large wings guarantee accurate and stable tuning of the Special Semi-Hollow.
PRS Hardware
Of course, Paul Reed Smith completes the Special Semi-Hollow Eriza Verde with the well-known PRS hardware, which more than meets professional demands for tour and Studio. The PRS Gen III tremolo on body not only impresses with buttery-smooth handling for shimmering vibrato embellishments, but also with extensive adjustment options for intonation and string position. The rounded surfaces of the system also provide a comfortable rest for the heel of the hand during palm mutes or similar playing techniques. The headstock also features PRS Phase III Locking tun ers for accurate and robust tuning, even when frequently reaching for the vibrato lever.
