Product Description
This 700-piece limited edition showcases reclaimed and salvaged woods on one of our most versatile models: the S2 Special Semi-Hollow. With each top boasting its own character and left as natural as possible, every instrument is rendered unique. That character paired with a wide spectrum of tones – from articulate single-coil sparkle to full, vintage-inspired humbucking warmth – results in a truly special instrument.
The woods featured on this model include a Peroba Rosa top, Cuban mahogany neck, and Guaribu fretboard. Peroba Rosa, typically used as siding in Brazil, was selected for the top wood. The density of this 100-150 year old wood combined with the semi-hollow body construction gives the S2 Special Semi-Hollow Reclaimed Limited Edition a unique sound that is punchy but also warm and full. The Cuban mahogany used for the necks was purchased from Puerto Rico; some of this wood was salvaged from trees blown down by Hurricane Maria in 2017. Finally, the Guaribu Preto fretboards are sourced from Brazil, where this wood was historically used as support beams for houses. These guitars are left Natural in color and finished in satin nitro. Any nail holes, wear, or discoloration have been left in the top wood to showcase its history.
“Wood is a crucial element to our guitar making heritage. Michael Reid, our Senior Wood Buyer, has been my curly maple wood provider and buyer since 1980 - before PRS was officially PRS - and we still work together as partners today. The deep relationships Michael has formed worldwide with our wood suppliers are remarkable. Guitars like this are a great way to highlight some of the interesting, personal stories from his travels and musical wood understanding,” said Paul Reed Smith.
Beyond their unique wood appointments, these instruments maintain many of the S2 Special Semi-Hollow’s standard specifications, including a 22-fret, 25” scale length Pattern Regular neck and hum/Narrowfield/hum pickup configuration. A 5-way blade switch and two mini-toggles allow players to tap the humbuckers, creating twelve distinct pickup combinations and ensuring endless sonic exploration.

“The neck of this guitar features Caribbean mahogany salvaged from municipalities and private landowners in need of removing “hazard” trees. It comes exclusively from Puerto Rico. The eventual sourcing of salvaged mahogany resulted from a conversation with an attendee from Puerto Rico, Carlos Narvaez, at thelast PRS Experience (held in 2018), one year after Hurricane Maria had devastated the Island ...” -Michael Reid, PRS Guitars Senior Wood Buyer
Versatile Pickups
Featuring a duo of PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers in the neck and bridge positions in combination with a powerful single-coil voiced Narrowfield pickup in the middle, the S2 Special offers vintage-inspired tones that can cover everything from rock and metal to jazz.
