![]() Click the instagram video below for a sound demo! As you’ll hear in the UG shot, it has a crystal clean clear tone with that piezo that should leave little doubt about the utility of this guitar. Especially with that piezo volume control knob, you can go from electric to acoustic in the same song by just rolling off the volume. It sounded like all kinds of acoustic tones I’d ever want to use on stage, and I love that this guitar does the job of two. I don’t have too much experience with piezo pickups but the SE Hollowbody II Piezo quickly won me over with its snappy, articulate tones. ![]() If the electric tones are everything you could want in a classic PRS guitar, the piezo is the icing on the cake. The neck pickup is particularly fun to play with a slide, while the bridge has more punch and sparkle that cuts right through the mix. ![]() Chords ring out beautifully, and while it isn’t the most crystal clear when overdriven, it has an awesome “space-filling” quality that lets it go from rhythm to lead with ease. The two humbuckers can go from a quiet growl to searing leads with ease, and the tones compliment the fast neck well, as this isn’t a shredder’s guitar and is better suited for blues, jazz, pop, and classic rock riffs. While it is still on the pricey side, this guitar brings PRS custom shop feel and tone down to a much more appetizing price. True to its SE Hollowbody II base, this Piezo version did not disappoint. That second input lets you blend in the piezo pickup using the third control knob, letting you go from full electric to full piezo, and everything in between both. The SE Hollowbody II Piezo also features 2 input jacks, one for the magnetic pickups mentioned above labelled “mag”, and one that is labeled “mix/piezo”. PRS 58/15 “S” humbucker grace the front of the guitar and are controlled by a 3-way selector switch and volume and tone pot. Nickel hardware includes the adjustable stop tail Piezo and PRS’s designed tuners. This guitar features a 25″ scale length, 22 frets, and wide, fat neck profile that feels really solid and inviting. The Mahogany neck is covered by an Ebony fretboard with their “Old School” bird inlays. On top of that Maple sits a Figured Maple veneer, mine came in this stunning Peacock Blue Burst finish. This brand new SE Hollowbody II Piezo features 5-ply Laminated Maple top and back with Mahogany sides. This takes their beloved affordable line hollowbody II and adds a PRS and LR Baggs co-designed piezo underneath that wrap around bridge. Just announced by PRS this month, meet the SE Hollowbody II Piezo. PRS took one of my top 10 favorite guitars released in 2019 and made it even better for 2020. ![]() PRS does it again with this brand new, just announced addition to their affordable lineup!
