PRS Tekton Electric Guitar, Ebony Fingerboard, Violet Tourmaline

For players constantly pushing for their next big break, the PRS Tekton is a guitar to carry you on to the next evolution of playing. The Tekton series, in reference to the ancient Greek word for artisan or builder, illustrates the equal balance of artistry PRS brings to the table and what they expect players to bring to the guitars. This player-forward model streamlines a great amount of musical power for a hard-hitting, rock-ready model to impress.

The PRS Tekton homes in on what modern guitarists need when it comes to blistering riffs and breakneck playability. Everything here kicks off with a double-cutaway mahogany body with a figured mango top. This Shallow Violin-carved top and sleek nitro-finished body make for an extremely comfortable feel under the arm and slung over the shoulder with a strap. Reaching out, this Tekton series model brings on a bolt-on scarfed maple neck in a PRS Modern "D" profile. This slimmer, satin-finished neck slips in hand easily with an equally comfortable fretting experience. An ebony fingerboard with twenty-four PRS Jumbo stainless steel frets lays out with an ultra-modern 16" radius and offset dot inlays.

For its formidable voice, this Tekton introduces two PRS Stylus humbucking pickups. These humbuckers, specially fashioned for a flatter response (though not truly flat), produce a clear, aggressive tone readymade for high-gain guitarwork. What's more, these pickups' tonal palette expands further with a push/pull tone control that introduces coil-split single-coil tones to the equation. A PRS Hardtail bridge solidifies intonation at the base of the scale while PRS Phase III locking tuning machines meet at the iconic asymmetrical PRS headstock. This PRS Tekton travels with an included PRS Premium gig bag.

A modern marvel ready for the most demanding of musicality, the PRS Tekton is raring to go.
