The Vela, the iconic offset of the S2 range
Within the "made in USA" S2 series, the Vela embodies PRS's approach to a modern and effective offset design. The HHT version evolves the concept with a dual humbucker configuration and a PRS tremolo, offering a decidedly contemporary take on the Vela without compromising the ergonomics and reliability that made it famous.
Who is this PRS S2 Vela HHT for?
Ideal for intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a high-performance and adaptable electric guitar. From alternative rock to indie, pop to funk, and blues, it covers a wide spectrum: single coil mode for punchy, snappy rhythms, and humbucker mode for dense, singing leads.
The sound
The pair of PRS DS-01 humbuckers with exposed magnets delivers a bright attack and precise mids. In humbucker mode, you get a full-bodied tone and generous sustain, perfect for articulate overdrives. The push/pull splits the coils to regain airy highs and a clearer, more "twangy" register. The mahogany body and neck provide warm mids, while the rosewood fingerboard softens the upper spectrum. The PRS tremolo adds extra expressiveness without sacrificing tuning stability.
Recommended compatible accessories
To maintain the original balance, a set of nickel strings 10-46 fits perfectly with its 25" / 635 mm scale length. A curved capo suited to a 10" / 254 mm radius will ensure consistent intonation across the fingerboard. Add a sturdy strap with two ends to secure the instrument on stage. The gig bag is already included.
