Notes: The electric guitars made by the Paul Reed Smith company are at the top of any short list of the most influential and highly coveted solid body guitars made today. The PRS Hollowbody series was introduced in 1998, to create a new type of instrument with the warmth of a hollow soundchamber and the sustain and feedback resistance of a solid body. The Hollowbody series enhanced acoustic tone with twin channel electronics adding built in active piezo circuitry to two powerful PRS humbuckers.

This spectacular instrument is carved with PRS' most intensely flamed tiger maple (designated as a '10 top') a handsome arched mahogany body, and solid rosewood fingerboard. At a feather-light 5lb. 5oz., the hollowbody construction is exceptionally comfortable and resonant, with only a small block anchoring the stoptail to enhance stability and sustain. The electronics offer unparalleled tonal options, with twin PRS Archtop humbucking pickups and the LR Baggs bridge pickup. This innovative system features individual piezo saddles and dual outputs, which allow the player to control any combination of magnetic, piezo or blended signals.

This gleaming guitar is in 100% original condition, and supplied with all tags, accessory package, and original deluxe hardshell case. Smooth low action over the traditionally contoured "wide fat" neck, a solid, gentle D profile, very comfortable in the hand. An extraordinary value, the PRS Hollowbody combines matchless versatility, effortless playability, and opulent design in one compelling package. One only: call now.

Setup: This instrument is strung with medium gauge nickel roundwound strings (.011-.048). The guitar will accommodate lighter or heavier gauge strings, according to preference. String action is set at 5/64" to 6/64" at the 12th fret, with moderate relief for acoustic playing with medium strings. The action may be lowered or raised to your requirements with the adjustable bridge.

Case: Original black deluxe arched hardshell case.
