Sonic Versatility Meets Exquisite Craftsmanship – The PRS SE Swamp Ash Special Electric Guitar in Charcoal
The PRS SE Swamp Ash Special is a unique offering in the growing PRS SE Series. With
a swamp ash body and 22-fret maple neck with maple fretboard, the SE Swamp Ash
Special is a fresh face and versatile voice.
The 85/15 “S” pickups flank a PRS-Designed AS-01 Single Coil “S” pickup in the middle
position. The AS-01 Single Coil features both alnico and steel (hence the name), which
adds mass to the pickups helping to create a powerful sound. Paired with a push-pull
tone control and 3-way pickup switch, this pickup/electronics package gives players
an array of sounds to enjoy, and the addition of PRS’s patented tremolo adds a touch
more versatility. The overall tone of the PRS SE Swamp Ash Special offers tight lowend, bright but mellow high-end, and a welcome twangy tone that can reach “hot
country,” blues, and even jazz territory.
