A Modernized S2 Vela: The PRS Spirit with Its Own Identity
After ten years of existence, the PRS S2 range was updated in 2024 with pickups and electronic components made in the United States. The S2 Vela fits into this evolution while maintaining its uniqueness: the first PRS to adopt an "offset" body shape, it blends PRS playability DNA with a more alternative aesthetic, perfect for those who want a different guitar without sacrificing build quality and brand reliability.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
The PRS S2 Vela is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an electric guitar with a smooth feel, capable of handling rehearsals, studio work, and stage performance. Its balance between attack, clarity, and tone makes it comfortable in rock, punk, indie, pop, and alternative styles, with a great ability to "cut through" a mix thanks to electronics designed for dynamics and clarity.
Sound
Its mahogany solidbody, combined with an asymmetrical carved top, provides a warm foundation with sustain and present mids. The treble pickup, the PRS DS-01, favors a bright, edgy tone, ideal for sharp riffs and tight rhythms. In the bass position, the PRS Narrowfield pickup offers remarkable bite and definition that remains clean even when played aggressively. The push/pull tone control adds a true palette: the split coil delivers finer, snappier textures, very useful for airier parts or funk/indie rhythms, without losing the Vela's identity.
