PRS SE Swamp Ash Special - Charcoal

The PRS SE Swamp Ash Special is an electric guitar from the SE series with a highly distinctive personality, designed for players seeking a different, versatile PRS with plenty of clarity.

Its swamp ash body, bolt-on maple neck, and maple fingerboard deliver a quick, well-defined response with good attack. The HSH configuration, featuring two PRS 85/15 “S” humbuckers and a center PRS-Designed AS-01 Single Coil, allows for a wide range of tones—from full-bodied sounds to bright cleans and twangy registers. Additionally, the push/pull tone control and 5-way pickup selector expand its tonal palette, making it a highly versatile option for rock, blues, country, pop, or studio work.
