We’re excited to bring you a few updates to our lineup of products for 2019. Read on and we’ll walk you through the new gear!

You don’t forget a good music festival. The arena sound, the big lineups, and the energy of thousands of fellow music fans. Each year, PRS teams up with “The Music Experience,” a traveling interactive musical instruments exhibit that visits rock and blues festivals around the country. Being inside The Music Experience tent gives us an opportunity to meet music fans and share our love of great guitars and amps. Here’s a quick recap of this year’s festivals.

In January 2018, we decided to kick off the year with a bang by announcing an entirely new lineup of PRS SE Acoustics. It’s safe to say that a lot of time was dedicated to researching, play-testing, and shaping the sound of these new instruments. Discover the sounds of the new SE Acoustic lineup here.

For artists and fans alike, the Vans Warped Tour is a bit magical; there is really nothing like it as bands travel together to play in 38 cities in 46 days. As you can imagine, the schedule and sheer effort it takes to pull-off a traveling tour of this magnitude is grueling. We caught up with a few PRS artists on this year’s tour to get the scoop on what it’s really like.

Nick Harper & Jakko Jakszyk are each incredible musicians in their own right, but put them together and you’re in for a real treat. Watch here as they perform some original tunes on the new PRS SE Acoustics.

After countless hours spent researching, play-testing, prototyping, and enjoying, we are excited to introduce to you a whole new lineup of PRS SE Acoustics. Check out this blog to meet the new models and read about how they came to be.

With the launch of the SE Santana model in 2001, a whole new breed of players and guitar lovers had access to PRS quality at a much more affordable pricepoint. To this day, SE guitars are revered as a sort of “boutique import” and played on stage by thousands of musicians around the globe. Jack Higginbotham served as PRS Guitars’ president during the time when our SE line was first introduced to the world. Below he explains the story and how our SE line came to be.

After months of design and development with RUSH guitarist Alex Lifeson, the SE Alex Lifeson acoustic model was released in March of 2015. Join us in taking a closer look at the model and its special features!

You don’t forget a good rock festival. The arena sound, the big lineups, and the energy of thousands of fellow music fans. That’s why PRS teams up with The Music Experience, a traveling interactive “rock star” exhibit on-site at dozens of rock festivals around the country. Learn more about our involvement with The Music Experience and where we’re heading in this blog!

Music education is important, no doubt. As guitar builders, we see ourselves on the continual road of improvement and discovery and in the same way, guitarists and musicians undergo this journey as well. That’s why we partnered with The Entertainment Institute (TEI) during this summer’s Warped Tour. Get the recap here!
