Fresh Face and Versatile Voice

The PRS SE Swamp Ash Special is a unique offering in the growing PRS SE Series. With a swamp ash body and 22-fret maple neck with maple fretboard, the SE Swamp Ash Special is a fresh face and versatile voice.

The 85/15 “S” pickups flank a PRS-Designed AS-01 Single Coil “S” pickup in the middle position. The AS-01 Single Coil features both alnico and steel (hence the name), which adds mass to the pickups helping to create a powerful sound. Paired with a push-pull tone control and 3-way pickup switch, this pickup/electronics package gives players an array of sounds to enjoy, and the addition of PRS’s patented tremolo adds a touch more versatility. The overall tone of the PRS SE Swamp Ash Special offers tight lowend, bright but mellow high-end, and a welcome twangy tone that can reach “hot country,” blues, and even jazz territory.

PRS Patented Tremolo
Patented design, delivering tonal fidelity, player comfort, and tuning stability.

PRS-Designed Tuners
Designed to PRS's specifications, these lightweight tuners provide precise tuning and won't dampen your tone.

85/15 "S" & AS-01 Pickups
Three pickup layout with unique switching for an array of sounds that can cover “hot country” to blues and jazz.
