PRS S2 Vela Electric Guitar, Scarlet Sunburst

Dropping in for PRS fans and vintage-style players alike, the PRS S2 Vela is a dynamite addition to the PRS lineup. Balancing both vintage personality with modern sensibility, this electric guitar radiates with exciting, inspiring energy.

Laying things out simply with a time-tested PRS solid mahogany body bearing an asymmetric top bevel, the S2 Vela is streamlined in design and eye-catching aesthetically. This model’s unique offset, double-cutaway shape is visually striking and effortlessly handled for playing casually or onstage. The mahogany body comes together with a set, scarfed mahogany neck in a PRS Pattern Regular shape. When matched with a twenty-two-fret rosewood fingerboard, the total experience of the neck is sleek and fit for quick maneuvers and skillful playing. Iconic PRS Birds fret inlays adorn this rosewood for that unmistakable PRS visual motif.

This PRS S2 Vela comes equipped with a unique PRS pickup configuration. Loaded into the pickguard, a PRS DS-01 pickup is found in the treble position for a bright and punchy tone. This first pickup is paired with a PRS Narrowfield pickup in the bass position to expand on the size of the sonic palette this guitar is capable of. A coil-tap designed into tone control knob allows players to split this humbucking pickup to incorporate authentic single-coil tonality and get even more sonic mileage.

Topping off this whole instrument is a refined PRS hardware setup. A PRS plate-style bridge appears on this guitar, harkening to early PRS bridges that featured similar plate-style, top-loading designs. This particular bridge features two brass saddles and a steel plate to compensate for intonation and provide ease in stringing. PRS’s low mass locking tuners add to this guitar’s tonal stability and stringing experience to ensure a consistent feel and sound across the entire instrument.

Distinctly a PRS creation with a sound and style of its very own, the S2 Vela packs a charming tonal punch for your best boundary-pushing riffage.
