• PRS HOLLOWBODY FULL

I didn’t notice quite as much punch and presence as a typical PAF-style humbucker, but the shared DNA is easy to hear.

PRS HOLLOWBODY FULL

Through my Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, the pickups were full and round with airy highs. The humbuckers are “S” versions of the company’s 58/15 pickups. You can also run a single cable out of the mixed output and blend the sounds. One option is to run two cables-one to an amp and the other to a DI-and then balance the piezo and magnetic output with their respective volume knobs. Depending on your setup, you can flex the acoustic muscle of the SE Hollowbody II Piezo in a few ways. There are also dual output jacks for mixed piezo/magnetic output and magnetic pickup output only. The control setup includes individual volume knobs for the magnetic and piezo pickups, a master tone control and a 3-way toggle. Kudos are due to PRS for making the piezo technology discreet but accessible. (Our review model was outfitted in an eye-catching peacock blue burst.) The SE Hollowbody II Piezo feels sturdy and smooth and features several elements that are typically seen in higher-end models, like fretboard and headstock binding, bird inlays, and an immaculate flame-maple veneer. With the addition of SE Hollowbody II Piezo model, it’s also becoming one of the most versatile.

The quality of PRS’s SE guitars makes the Annapolis builder’s accessibly priced line one of the most rock-solid in the business.
