The PRS S2 Vela takes the PRS concept into a more alternative realm, featuring an offset body made of mahogany, set-neck construction, and a bright, direct response with plenty of character. Its combination of a PRS DS-01 humbucker in the bridge position and a PRS Narrowfield in the neck provides a highly versatile palette, with punch, clarity, and coil-tap options to expand the available sounds.

Series S2
The PRS S2 series is manufactured in the United States, at PRS's factory in Stevensville, Maryland. It is designed for guitarists seeking the character, comfort, and reliability of PRS with a more straightforward approach compared to the Core series.
The name S2 stands for “Stevensville 2,” referring to the second manufacturing line created by PRS within their own factory. This series includes highly versatile models, from modern-cut guitars to more traditional options like the McCarty 594.
Our Opinion
The S2 Vela is one of the most interesting PRS models for players looking to move away from the brand’s more classic formats without sacrificing a serious, comfortable, and well-built instrument. The offset body offers a distinctive aesthetic, but the real strength lies in its balance of clarity, punch, and versatility.
The combination of DS-01 and Narrowfield pickups works very well for expressive cleans, defined crunch, and vintage-style sounds without losing stability or precision. It’s highly recommended for those seeking a less conventional PRS, ideal for studio work, live performance, and styles where an instrument with its own character is appreciated.
