PRS Myles Kennedy Signature Electric Guitar in Black

Myles Kennedy is an accomplished guitarist who brings his soulful blues phrasing and smooth jazz sensibilities into the rock realm as the frontman for Alter Bridge and Slash & The Conspirators. Kennedy’s PRS signature model reflects his rock-driven approach while tipping its hat to classic, historic designs. While its aesthetic may have players hearing country chicken pickin’ (and it can certainly venture into “twang” territory), this instrument is ultimately made to perform as a true rock machine!

Built to sing

The PRS Myles Kennedy signature guitar features a Swamp Ash body paired with a 22-fret, 25.5" scale length Maple neck, delivering clarity, snap and excellent range. It’s equipped with two PRS Narrowfield MK pickups, carefully voiced to capture the power of humbuckers alongside the articulation and spank of single coils — all within a single design. Building on PRS’s standard Narrowfield platform, these pickups retain the ability to produce thick single-coil tones without unwanted hum.

Versatility at your fingertips

These pickups are matched with a 5-way blade switch and a push/pull tone knob that functions as a preset high-frequency roll-off. This allows you to tame the treble pickup’s top end fast, making it easier to dig in while maintaining control and balance.

Rock-solid hardware

Additional features include a PRS plate-style steel bridge, vintage-style locking tuners and a bone nut for enhanced tuning stability and sustain. The truss rod cover is adorned with Kennedy’s “Geometric Owl” logo from his The Ides of March solo release — a symbol of wisdom and adaptability that adds a personal finishing touch to the instrument.

Paul Reed Smith on the PRS Myles Kennedy:

"I watched Myles throughout his career alternate between humbucking and single-coil sounds without giving anything up on either side. These pickups took us months to dial in, and I think they capture that balance that Myles mastered beautifully," said Paul Reed Smith.

"This guitar captures the spirit of my favourite older instruments. With that said, since we developed this guitar, most of my vintage instruments rarely see the light of day," said Kennedy. "I feel like we managed to touch on the elusive quality that makes you want to play with this guitar. It beckons you to take it off the wall or out of the case and make music."

• Nitro finish: This old-school finish allows the wood to resonate more freely for maximum tonal richness. And it’ll age beautifully over time, just like a true classic.
• PRS Narrowfield MK pickups: A proprietary design that delivers the punch of humbuckers and the spank of single-coils (without the hum).
• PRS plate-style bridge: Constructed from steel for lively, responsive tone, with brass saddles that enhance sustain and tuning stability.
