PRS Studio 10 Top With Pattern Thin Neck and Stoptail Electric Guitar McCarty Sunburst

PRS' new 22-fret, 25"-scale length Studio model electric guitar is a fresh, modern rendition of a traditional single-single-hum guitar set up with the beauty and brightness of a maple 10-Top. The possibilities are vast with PRSs proprietary 57/08 Narrowfield pickups in the middle and bass positions in conjunction with a 57/08 humbucking bridge pickup. Screaming lead tones, crisp rhythm tones and 5-way blade switch also enhance the flexibility of this guitar in the studio or on stage.Other features include mahogany back and neck, V12 finish, rosewood fretboard, Pattern Thin neck, 2011 birds, stoptail bridge, PRS locking tuners, nickel hardware, redesigned lampshade knobs volume, and push/pull tone controls.V12 FinishThe finish should enhance the look, sound, and feel of a guitar by accentuating the wood's inherent beauty and feel without hindering its natural resonance. And PRS Guitars' new "V12" finish does just that. Introduced at Experience PRS 2010, "V12" is a very thin, hard, and clear finish that will not crack or react with thinners. After roughly 12 years in development, it is halfway between acrylic and nitro but with a classic feel all its own. "PRS models with this new finish feel like old instruments," said Paul Reed Smith.Pattern Thin Neck ShapeNeck shapes have always been a high priority for PRS and a hallmark of their quality. A guitar should feel comfortable, like "home," as soon as you pick it up, and the neck is paramount to that connection. The "Pattern Thin" neck is an updated version of PRS's traditional Wide Thin neck. This new neck shape reflects modern tooling and programming that allows PRS to even more preciously shape and consistently reproduce their necks.
