A PRS S2 designed for the PRS DNA, in a "modern and accessible" version
The S2 Studio is part of PRS's S2 series, a range designed to offer PRS aesthetics, reliability, and musicality in a format tailored for demanding musicians. Made in the USA, it emphasizes versatility thanks to highly flexible electronics, while retaining iconic brand markers such as the "Old School Birds" inlays and the distinctive Black Amber finish.
Who is it for, and for which styles?
The PRS S2 Studio Black Amber is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a single guitar capable of handling multiple genres without losing personality. Its natural playground ranges from blues to rock, including pop, funk, fusion, and all band situations where one must switch quickly from a precise, punchy sound to a thicker lead tone.
The sound
The combination of a maple top and mahogany back provides a very effective balance: maple enhances attack, definition, and brightness, while mahogany adds warmth and depth in the midrange. On the pickups side, the PRS Narrowfield (neck and middle) deliver clarity and dynamics that remain well-defined, ideal for articulate rhythms and more "glassy" tones. The 58/15 LT in the bridge position offers a thicker, singing register, perfect for solos and overdriven sounds. The 5-position selector and push/pull tone control further expand the available textures, allowing quick shifts from a sharp sound to a fuller grain. Finally, the patented PRS tremolo and locking tuners contribute to reliable tuning stability, even during expressive playing.
Recommended compatible accessories
To stay as close as possible to the original feel, opt for electric guitar strings in 10-46 gauge (same as the indicated factory setup).
