Description

The Paul Reed Smith Special Semi-Hollow - Black Gold Wraparound Burst is where soul-stirring resonance meets cutting-edge versatility, an instrument crafted for players who demand both elegance and firepower. With its semi-hollow body and single F-hole, this guitar breathes with warmth and dimension, blending the articulate attack of a solidbody with the airy depth of a hollowbody. Drenched in the Black Gold Wraparound Burst finish, its maple top shimmers with a rich, dynamic glow, framed by the timeless warmth of mahogany on the back.

At the heart of this sonic masterpiece is a trio of PRS’s most revered pickups—the 58/15 LT TCI humbuckers in the neck and bridge, paired with a PRS Narrowfield® middle pickup—delivering vintage warmth, crisp articulation, and midrange punch with endless versatility. The 5-way blade switch, combined with two mini-toggle coil-split switches, unlocks a universe of tones, from smooth, bell-like cleans to snarling, high-gain aggression. Whether you’re soaring through fluid jazz lines or pushing the amp into pure rock fury, this guitar answers the call with finesse.

The mahogany neck, shaped into PRS’s comfortable Pattern profile, feels like home in the hands—fast yet substantial, perfect for both lightning-fast lead work and expressive bends. The rosewood fretboard, adorned with PRS’s signature bird inlays, provides the perfect playing surface, while the Gen III PRS Patented Tremolo and Phase III locking tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability and expressive whammy bar action.

At 6 lbs 13 oz, the PRS Special Semi-Hollow is as comfortable as it is inspiring, housed in a PRS hardshell case and built for the stage, studio, and everywhere in between. This is more than just a guitar—it’s a work of art, a sonic weapon, and a testament to PRS’s unmatched dedication to innovation and craftsmanship. Whether you're crafting intricate melodies or unleashing raw power, the PRS Special Semi-Hollow - Black Gold Wraparound Burst delivers in ways no other guitar can.
