The PRS Special Semi-Hollow delivers on its namesake – this semi-hollow is truly something else. Starting out, this guitar is brought together in a semi-hollow form with a maple top and mahogany back. The maple exhibits a Violin top carve and bears a single f-hole. This instrument’s semi-hollow nature allows for it to acoustically bloom organically and display the great tonality the two tonewoods naturally provide. A classic PRS double-cutaway shape takes form and leads the way into the full playing experience.

Arriving alongside the semi-hollow body is a one-piece set mahogany neck. This neck features a PRS Pattern profile for easy grip in hand while a twenty-two-fret rosewood fingerboard joins the equation. This board, comfortably traveled and fretted for quick trips across the full scale length, bears PRS Birds inlays for that added element of PRS authenticity and style. Playability across this instrument is a dream with fine PRS woods and shapes to take hold of.

A sonic centerpiece of this Special Semi-Hollow is its assortment of PRS pickups. In the neck and bridge positions, two PRS 58/15 LT “low turn” humbucking pickups summon heaps of humbucker power with a refined edge for fitting into any mix. The middle position, however, fits a PRS Narrowfield pickup that delivers the snap of a single-coil with the same unified PRS clarity needed to play optimally. Two mini-toggle coil-tap switches allow players to swap either 58/15 pickup into a new voicing and, when combined with this guitar’s five-way pickup selector switch, opens the field for up to twelve possible pickup configurations for an unprecedented spectrum of sounds.

Fine hardware appointments on the Special Semi-Hollow include a number of PRS picks to make the instrument play its best. A PRS Patented Tremolo Gen III tremolo bridge lands at the base of the scale to allow for the incorporation of exciting vibrato bends in playing without the loss of intonation or tuning stability. This experience is further bolstered by PRS’s Phase III Locking Tuners with wing buttons. These tuning machines, light in weight, promote vibrations among strings and result in an overall more sonically succinct instrument.

For fans of PRS and semi-hollows alike, this specimen exhibits all the excellent qualities that have come to be expected from the name. Dynamically playable and deeply musical, this Special Semi-Hollow is just that – special.
