A PRS Inspired by 1953, Designed for Today
Born from Paul Reed Smith's admiration for 1950s solidbodies, the NF53 captures the spirit of a 1953 icon and reinvents it with modern solutions. Its pair of Narrowfield DD (Deep Dish) pickups and PRS ergonomics provide the precision and stability expected by today's guitarists, without sacrificing vintage tone and period dynamics.
Who Is This Guitar For?
The NF53 suits both ambitious beginners and intermediate to professional players seeking a responsive and reliable electric guitar. Its tonal palette covers rock, blues, pop, funk, and modern country, with enough attack to cut through a mix and sufficient warmth for rich rhythm parts.
Sound Characteristics
The Narrowfield DD pickups combine attack and definition, featuring more winding turns and specific pole pieces to thicken the midrange while maintaining silky highs. The swamp ash body adds snap and projection, while the bolt-on maple neck enhances articulation and sustain. The simple and effective electronics (volume, tone, 3-position selector switch) allow you to move from bright cleans to punchy crunch and singing leads, all without unwanted noise.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
- 10-46 string set (original setup) to maintain the intended gauge and tension.
- Standard strap (universal strap buttons).
- Curved capo suited for 9.5"-10" radius fingerboards (10" / 254 mm radius).
