PRS S2 Vela Satin Electric Guitar, Charcoal w/ Premium Gig Bag

PRS S2 Vela Satin puts the company’s offset blueprint into a lean, road focused package finished in Charcoal satin nitro for a fast feel and a look that stays out of its own way. The idea is simple. Keep mass low, hardware precise, and switching direct so right-hand dynamics and intonation get center stage, not busy cosmetics.

The body is mahogany with an asymmetric bevel carved top that takes weight off the forearm edge and helps the guitar ring quickly. The 25-inch scale length lands the familiar PRS tension sweet spot, responsive under the pick without feeling stiff. PRS’s plate style bridge anchors the voice with a steel base for cut and compensated brass saddles for proper intonation up the neck. It is a top loader, so string changes are quick between sets.

Neck specs aim for long set comfort. A mahogany neck carved to Pattern Regular fills the palm without getting clubby. The rosewood fingerboard carries 22 frets on a 10-inch radius, and the nut measures 1 21/32 inches, which gives the wound strings a touch more breathing room. PRS low mass locking tuners keep pitch where it belongs and make seasonal tweaks painless.

Electronics define the Vela’s punchy personality. The PRS DS 01 in the bridge is dry and immediate, great with edge of breakup amps and pedal platforms that rely on pick attack. The Narrowfield neck pickup stays tight and articulate, so extended chords remain discernable and neck leads keep their outline. Controls are a master volume, a push pull tone to split the bridge coil, and a three-way toggle for fast, no guesswork routing.

Finished in Charcoal satin nitro and housed in a premium gig bag, PRS S2 Vela Satin is the offset that prizes focus, speed, and mix friendly clarity. It rewards clean technique, takes gain well, and does the job night after night without drama.
