Description
The S2 Vela Satin is a vintage-inspired guitar with loads of personality and tonal textures. The Vela boasts a contemporary offset body shape, and the addition of a satin nitro finish provides added attitude and resonance and a truly addictive feel.
Its pickguard-loaded electronics feature a PRS-Designed DS-01 pickup in the bridge, providing a bright, punky tone, and the PRS-Designed Type-D Single Coil in the neck that gives the Vela some noteworthy bite. The coil-tap on the tone control allows the bridge pickup to split to single coils, providing a balanced tone that will cut through the mix with style. Anchoring this guitar is the PRS plate-style bridge with two saddles that were designed to compensate for intonation. This bridge harkens back to Pauls early designs and traditional bass plate-style bridges but is top-loading for easy restringing. Like the bridge found on Pauls Guitar and some Private Stock models, PRSs plate-style bridge features brass saddles and an aluminum plate for maximum tonal sustain.
