A decisively modern Vela at the heart of the S2 series
Designed in the spirit of PRS's S2 line, the Vela HHT modernizes the iconic offset silhouette with a dual humbucker configuration and a PRS tremolo. It features the USA-made craftsmanship PRS is known for, combining machining precision and meticulous finishes for a guitar ready for both stage and studio.
Who is it for and what styles?
Ideal for intermediate to advanced guitarists, the S2 Vela HHT excels in indie, rock, pop, funk, and blues. Its lively response and wide tonal spectrum make it an excellent tool for switching between punchy rhythms, defined arpeggios, and expressive solos without changing instruments.
The sound
The pair of PRS DS-01 humbuckers delivers precise mids, bright highs, and full-bodied lows. The push/pull tone control allows coil-splitting for a single-coil bite, perfect for crisp cleans and funk. The mahogany body promotes sustain and warmth, while the 25" / 635 mm scale length ensures balanced string tension for smooth bends. The PRS tremolo adds singing modulation while maintaining intonation, and the 10" / 254 mm radius offers natural comfort for chords and soloing. The simple and effective electronics (master volume, push/pull tone, 3-position selector) guarantee a broad and quickly accessible palette in any situation.
Recommended compatible accessories
To get the most out of your Vela HHT, choose nickel strings 10-46 (original gauge) and a well-balanced strap for extended sets. A quality 6.35 mm jack cable will preserve signal clarity. The guitar comes with a Gig Bag, ideal for daily transport.
