The Nantel Verdict
The Nantel Verdict
Hollow or semi-hollow construction adding organic resonance and three-dimensional depth. Natural acoustic properties allowing enjoyable unplugged practice. Exceptional recording characteristics capturing richness solid-bodies can't match. A tonal versatility spanning jazz, blues, rock, indie, and beyond.
Roll the tone knob back to 6 and play through a tube amp at moderate gain - the natural resonance of the hollow body adds a woody warmth and depth to your tone that will transform how you experience guitar. That's the sweet spot.
A semi-hollow or hollow guitar delivers warmth and tonal complexity that solid-body instruments simply cannot match. You feel the resonance in your hands and hear it through the amp as a richer, more three-dimensional tone. From Freddie King's blues to Larry Carlton's fusion to Noel Gallagher's anthems, these instruments add soul to every note. It's the kind of guitar that makes you play more musically.

The PRS SE Special Semi-Hollow is a versatile workhorse, perfect for players looking to explore new sonic horizons with uncompromised playability and quality. With the lush tones of a semi-hollow body and the versatility of a hum/“single”/hum setup, this guitar delivers a world of musical possibilities, bringing PRS’s innovative Narrowfield DD pickup design and intuitive coil-tap switching system to the SE Series in a classic maple top guitar. The semi-hollow construction also enhances sustain and resonance, while the f-hole adds a classic aesthetic. A 22-fret, 25” scale-length maple neck with a rosewood fretboard and PRS bird inlays ensures smooth playability and an iconic look. The PRS SE Special Semi-Hollow is equipped with a pair of 58/15 LT “S” pickups with a PRS Narrowfield DD “S” in the middle position and a versatile coil-tap setup that unlocks a wide range of tones—from warm, full humbucker sounds to crisp single-coil chime. This three-pickup configuration allows for unique tonal options, making this model a go-to for genres ranging from jazz and blues to rock and beyond. Finished with PRS-designed tuners and the patented PRS tremolo bridge, the PRS SE Special Semi-Hollow delivers roadworthy reliability with studio-worthy tone.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0H7hWqSgZcY
