Our Opinion
The PRS SE A20E Black Top is a highly recommended option for those seeking a comfortable electro-acoustic with a distinctive look and a warm, balanced sound. The combination of a solid mahogany top with mahogany sides and back provides prominent midrange and a smooth character, especially pleasant for accompaniment, fingerstyle, and styles that prefer a less bright tone.
The Angelus Cutaway body allows easy access to the upper frets and is comfortable whether seated or standing, while the PRS-Voiced Fishman system enables direct connection to an amplifier or sound system while maintaining a natural response. It is a particularly versatile guitar suitable for home playing, recording, or live performances.
