PRS S2 Vela Semi-Hollow Black - Dot inlays

The S2 Vela Semi-Hollow is a vintage-inspired guitar with loads of personality and tonal textures. Continuing in the style of the Mira and Starla models, the Vela boasts an offset body shape that is unique and comfortable. Finished in a classic black gloss, paired with a semi-hollow body design to add additional resonance and an acoustic element to your sound.

Electronics

Its pickguard-loaded electronics feature a PRS-Designed Starla pickup in the bridge, providing a bright, punky tone, and the PRS-Designed Type-D Singlecoil in the neck that gives the Vela some noteworthy bite. The coil-tap on the tone control allows the bridge pickup to split to singlecoils, providing a balanced tone that will cut through the mix with style.

Hardware

Anchoring this guitar is the PRS plate-style bridge with two saddles that were designed to compensate for intonation. This bridge harkens back to Paul's early designs and traditional bass plate-style bridges, but is top-loading for easy restringing. Like the bridge found on Paul's Guitar and some Private Stock models, PRS's new plate-style bridge features brass saddles and an aluminum plate for maximum tonal sustain. Matched with the S2 locking tuners this guitar not only stays in tune when it should but the brass contact points allow for fantastic sustain!
