The PRS S2 Special Semi-Hollow Reclaimed electric guitar blends history, sustainability and modern engineering into a single instrument. Each top uses reclaimed Peroba Rosa wood from Brazil, featuring original nail holes and natural wear. The neck uses Cuban mahogany salvaged from trees in Puerto Rico, and the fretboard is Guaribu Preto, once used as support beams for homes. Satin nitrocellulose finish keeps the wood’s look and feel raw. The semi-hollow design gives every note punch and warmth. Players who want a guitar with unique materials, a wide range of pickup options, and honest, organic character will find this model stands out for recording, stage, and home use.
Reclaimed Peroba Rosa Top Creates Complex Tone
The top is cut from Peroba Rosa, a dense wood salvaged from old Brazilian buildings. Each piece has a different look, with marks and color left untouched. The semi-hollow body and asymmetrical carve boost resonance and sustain, so the guitar sounds full and lively. This reclaimed material adds punch without losing warmth, giving each note clarity and depth. Playing chords or leads feels direct and honest, with every string ringing out.
Advanced Pickup System Delivers Wide Sonic Range
This unit features a humbucker, Narrowfield and another humbucker, all wired to a five-way blade switch and mini-toggles for coil tap. Players can access twelve distinct pickup combinations, shaping sounds from single-coil sparkle to thick humbucker warmth. The controls let you adjust volume, tone and tap pickups for fast changes. This system creates sounds for every style—sharp leads, smooth rhythm, and layered textures for creative work.
Intuitive Controls Enable Quick Adjustments
Volume and tone knobs sit close to the blade switch, so users can dial in settings without losing focus. The two mini-toggle switches tap both humbuckers, unlocking extra sounds on the fly. PRS’s patented tremolo gives expressive pitch shifts while keeping tuning stable. The hardware layout is simple, letting players shape and switch tone between songs or sections with no confusion or delay.
Sustainable Construction With Salvaged Woods Increases Durability
Peroba Rosa, Cuban mahogany and Guaribu Preto each offer strength and stability for the body, neck and fretboard. The satin nitro finish protects the wood while leaving its natural feel. Nickel hardware resists wear, and the set neck joint adds reliability. Salvaged materials used in this guitar have already lasted generations, proving their toughness for years of regular use.
