This PRS SE Custom 22 Semi-hollow electric guitar is a workhorse guitar with a distinctive edge. It sports a mahogany body with an eye-catching maple top. Plug it in and the dual vintage-inspired 85/15 “S” humbuckers come to life, serving up clear tone imbued with warm resonance. And the genuine PRS tremolo is one of the best in the business. Like all PRS instruments, this instrument’s sheer playability will inspire you to reach for new creative heights. Onstage or in the studio, the PRS SE Custom 22 Semi-hollow delivers excellence that few guitars can match.
Semi-hollowbody construction
The Paul Reed Smith Custom 22 Semi-hollow electric guitar sets itself apart from PRS’s other Custom-series instruments with its thinline construction. By using this popular construction technique, PRS has created an instrument that sings with the sustain and feedback-resistant nature of a solidbody, while imbuing its tone with extra air and sweetness. Not to mention, this also makes the PRS Custom 22 Semi-hollow a much lighter instrument for those marathon gigs.
PRS 85/15 “S” pickups offer remarkable clarity and extended tonal range
Playing your favorite licks through the PRS SE Custom 22 Semi-hollow electric guitar’s 85/15 “S” pickups is a wonderful experience. That’s because 85/15 “S” pickups are modeled after the 85/15 pickups Paul Reed Smith designed for PRS’s 30th anniversary. From shimmering cleans to blistering high-gain tones, the clarity and extended tonal range provided by these pickups make the SE Custom 22 Semi-hollow the ideal workhorse guitar. We love the sweetened, vintage-inspired sound of 85/15 “S” humbuckers.
Mahogany topped with maple looks and sounds amazing
To give this PRS SE Custom 22 Semi-hollow electric guitar a rich yet balanced sound, PRS began by choosing the tried-and-true combination of mahogany topped with maple. This instrument’s mahogany body gives you natural tonal warmth, which is offset perfectly by the brighter tone of its maple top. Together, these tonewoods yield an incredibly balanced sound with body and snap.
What PRS Says…
The PRS SE Custom 22 Semi-Hollow has musical midrange and outstanding resonance. The semi-hollow body provides an airy, sweet tone but with a twist of the tone knob, the dual humbuckers can get plenty of bright spank. Additional appointments include a maple top, mahogany back and neck, rosewood fretboard, and dual 85/15 “S” pickups with volume and push/pull tone controls (for coil tapping) paired with a 3-way blade pickup selector. 85/15 “S” pickups lend remarkable clarity and extended high and low end to this semi-hollow’s voice. The SE Custom 22 Semi-Hollow is both versatile and comfortable, making it a reliable tool for professionals, a solid choice for beginners, and a welcome addition to any arsenal.
