The PRS S2 Vela in Scarlet Sunburst is a standout in the world of electric guitars, combining vintage-inspired design with modern playability. Crafted by PRS, renowned for their meticulous attention to detail, this guitar features a comfortable asymmetric body shape that ensures balance and ease of play. The Scarlet Sunburst finish not only adds a touch of classic elegance but also highlights the guitar’s striking appearance on stage or in the studio.
Anchored by PRS playability and craftsmanship, the S2 Vela is perfect for players who want PRS build quality and reliability with a fresh aesthetic. The Vela is the maiden voyage into an offset body shape for PRS and is both elegant and edgy. Loaded with a PRS DS-01 humbucker in the treble pickup position and the PRS-designed Type-D singlecoil in the bass pickup position, the Vela has a bright, punchy tone that sounds great plugged into your pedalboard or straight into an amp. A coil-tap on the tone control allows the DS-01 pickup to split into singlecoils and explore a whole new range of tones. The PRS plate-style bridge holds two brass saddles specifically designed for great sustain and perfect intonation so both rhythm and lead tones sound great no matter where you are on the fretboard.
In the studio or on the stage, you won’t want to leave this guitar at home.
Ideal for guitarists looking to explore new sonic territories while appreciating craftsmanship, the PRS S2 Vela falls into the medium to high budget range, offering exceptional quality and performance that meets the demands of both seasoned professionals and discerning enthusiasts alike.
