PRS 40th Anniversary Special Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar in Yellow Tiger

The PRS 40th Anniversary Special Semi-Hollow Limited Edition is a real treat, blending premium tonewoods with clever electronics for a seriously inspiring instrument. With only 280 available worldwide, this is proper collector’s piece. You’re getting PRS McCarty III treble and bass humbuckers paired with a PRS Narrowfield in the middle, all wrapped up in a stunning artist-grade figured Maple top, Black Limba back and neck and a beautifully rich Honduran Rosewood fingerboard and headstock veneer.

A tonal powerhouse

Thanks to the three-pickup setup, 5-way blade switch and dual mini-toggles, you’ve got a whopping twelve pickup combinations at your fingertips. Roll the tone back to smooth things out, or open it up for chimey, articulate sparkle. The output stays nicely balanced between humbucker and single-coil-style sounds too, while the semi-hollow construction adds a lovely bit of air and resonance to everything you play.

Classic PRS feel with heritage details

On the spec front, it’s everything you’d expect from a high-end PRS. A 25” scale length, 22 frets, a comfortable 10” radius and the popular ‘Pattern’ neck shape make this a joy to play. Aesthetically, it tips its hat to PRS history with “Old School” bird inlays and a pre-factory eagle on the headstock — a really nice touch for fans of early PRS designs. Hardware-wise, you’re sorted too with the Gen III tremolo and Phase III locking tuners.

Limited and properly special

This model is part of PRS’s 40th Anniversary celebrations, and as you’d expect, it’s not hanging around. With just 280 pieces produced globally, it’s as exclusive as it gets. Each one also comes with a hand-signed 40th Anniversary certificate.
