Features and Visuals Inspired by Paul's Personal Guitars
Features and visuals inspired by PRS founder Paul Reed Smith's personal player collection come to a compelling price point in the PRS SE Paul's Guitar. Integral to the Paul's Guitar equation is a highly figured maple-capped mahogany body, for the sparkle, sustain, and sex appeal PRS players live and die by. Next up is the hand-filling 22-fret Pattern Wide Fat-profile mahogany neck, which offers off-the-charts playability up and down the Birds-clad rosewood fingerboard. On the electronics side, a pair of custom-spec'd TCI humbuckers with independent coil-tap switches — a totally unique feature to any PRS outside the Core and Private Stock collections — delivers a stunning array of gossamer single-tone voicings to scorching high-gain humbucker heat and all stops in between. Factor in an authentic PRS stoptail bridge with brass inserts, and with the SE Paul's Guitar, you've got the very best of Paul's decades of class-leading designs, all at an irresistible price.

Exceptional components
Many of the world's most sought-after guitars, including Paul Reed Smith's own, have featured the same pairing of maple and mahogany you'll find on the SE Paul's Guitar. And like any guitar fine enough to grace Paul's personal collection, the SE Paul's Guitar sports a stunning figuring pattern made even more vivid by a flawless, tonally transparent gloss finish. Beyond that, this exquisite instrument's mahogany neck features a comfortable Pattern Wide Fat profile, while its 22-fret, 10-inch-radius rosewood fingerboard facilitates effortless playability.
TCI humbuckers with coil tap toggles
A set of custom-spec'd TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) pickups with independent coil-tap toggles allows players to access and blend single-coil and humbucker textures in any of the three pickup positions. The PRS SE Paul's Guitar marks the first time you'll find a pickup switching system this advanced outside the PRS Private Stock and Core lines. Guitarists at Sweetwater love these pickups. You will, too.
PRS quality in every guitar
All Paul Reed Smith guitars are designed for performance, right out of the case — and the SE Paul's Guitar is no exception. Constructed from high-quality tonewoods and components, PRS instruments carry on a commitment to quality that's been the brand's hallmark since 1985, when Paul Smith began crafting guitars for some of the most elite players in the world. In fact, you'll often see a PRS SE in the touring rigs of the most well-respected PRS artists in the world.
