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

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