PRS Guitars has just launched five new three-pickup, 22-fret models across the S2 and SE series and they cover a pretty wide range of prices.
“The distinctive pickup configurations of these five guitars deliver a versatile tonal platform, whether you’re exploring subtle textures or pushing the envelope,” said PRS Guitars COO, Jack Higginbotham.
“The deep dive into our Narrowfield technology is obvious with this launch. With both the S2 models made in our Maryland factory and the SE models made in Indonesia, our goal has been to create guitars that will inspire you and spark creativity, all at an exceptional value.”
Looking for flexibility and feel? The PRS S2 Special Semi-Hollow might be your match. It’s loaded with two 58/15 LT humbuckers and a PRS Narrowfield in the middle, and thanks to a 5-way switch and two mini-toggles, you get twelve distinct pickup combinations to play with. The semi-hollow body—with its carved Maple top and Mahogany back—adds a warm, airy character and extra sustain to your sound.
The S2 Special Semi-Hollow is available here for $2,599 in Faded Gray Black Purple Burst, Lake Blue, Fire Red Burst, Faded Gray Black Blue Burst, Dark Cherry Sunburst, and Black Amber finishes.
Need a guitar that covers a lot of ground? The PRS S2 Studio comes through with its unique single-single-hum layout. You get two Narrowfield pickups in the bass and middle, plus a 58/15 LT humbucker in the treble spot. Add a 5-way blade switch and push/pull tone control, and you’ve got everything from glassy single-coils to thick humbucker tones at your fingertips.

Bringing serious versatility to the SE lineup, the SE Special Semi-Hollow sports a hum/single/hum setup with PRS Narrowfield DD pickups. Its semi-hollow Maple-top body adds natural resonance and sustain, and that classic f-hole look never goes out of style. A coil-tap system expands your tonal palette even more, making this one a total workhorse.

If you want tones that go from crisp and clean to thick and growling, the SE Studio has your back. With a Narrowfield DD “S” in the bass and middle, and a 58/15 LT “S” humbucker in the treble, it’s ready to cover a ton of sonic ground. The 5-way switch and push/pull tone control let you fine-tune every nuance.

Classic vibe meets modern flexibility in the SE Studio Standard—the only bolt-on neck in the bunch. It’s got an all-mahogany body, vintage-style pickguard, and the same versatile pickup trio as the SE Studio: two Narrowfield DD “S” pickups and a 58/15 LT “S” humbucker. With a 5-way switch and push/pull control, this one delivers serious tonal range with old-school flair.
Get the SE Studio Standard here for $849 in Silvertone Gray, Pearl White, and Sage Green finishes.
