85/15 "S" pickups. A true testament to PRS innovation. These bass and treble pickups harness the power of ground-breaking '80s humbuckers, offering a dynamic, versatile sound that accommodates anything from sparkling cleans to decimating distortion. Originally released in 1985, they combine the qualities of a single coil pickup with the noise-cancelling benefits of a humbucker. So, you can project a sound that is purely you, no hum, whilst still experiencing the gloriousness of a single coil. Better still, the controls on this guitar meet the demands of the modern musician. Flick between the two pickups using the 3-way blade switch and sculpt your sound using the volume and push/pull tone controls. You will be instantly recognisable from the first note.
Stability, durability, and immense comfort whilst playing. If you're going to project such a loud and annihilating tone, you don't want anything stopping you. Built from mahogany, the back and sides of the S2 Custom 22's body allows you to completely let loose on stage as it can endure any aggressive performance. Such strength is needed for this amazingly striking instrument. Its shape offers superb playability by featuring a double cutaway design, making it wonderfully easy to reach the higher frets and perform flawlessly during those solos. And teamed with the maple top, you have a tone that is resonant, warm, and incredibly balanced.
Attached onto the robust mahogany neck is a ravishing rosewood fretboard. A popular choice for this part of the guitar, rosewood offers a bright tone that is evened out with complex resonance. But more importantly, it is fantastically smooth, lending itself to intricate fretting techniques. Slide, pitch bend, and practice swift chord changes without any impedance. Its soft finish will feel like a cloud underneath your fingertips, perfect for speedy and effortless playing.
Explore the amazing possibilities the S2 Custom 22 brings. Equipped with a PRS Tremolo bridge, this guitar gives you the chance to experiment with dive-bombs, vibrato, and other techniques, making your performance more enchanting than ever. Captivate your audience with your wild playing and then return to solid ground afterwards as your strings go back to being firmly in tune.
