PRS Special Semi-Hollow 10 Top (Charcoal Burst) inc Hard Case

PRS's Special Semi-Hollow occupies a distinct niche in the semi-acoustic market: a versatile platform built for players seeking tonal breadth without the noise floor penalty of traditional single-coils. The hum/single/hum pickup configuration-anchored by a pair of 58/15 LT humbuckers and a centre-positioned Narrowfield middle pickup-delivers the cutting clarity of a single-coil design whilst rejecting electromagnetic interference. This architecture, paired with a 5-way blade switch and dual mini-toggles for humbucker voicing, yields twelve distinct pickup combinations across genres and amplifier types. The instrument centres on a solid maple top mounted to a mahogany body with single f-hole, offering acoustic resonance and sustain separation from fully hollow designs. A 25-inch scale mahogany neck-topped with rosewood fretboard and 22 frets-ensures ergonomic consistency with modern standards. The Phase III patented tremolo system maintains tuning stability through heavier use, whilst the newly redesigned Phase III locking tuners feature lighter polymer wing buttons that reduce energy loss from the vibrating string mass, extending decay and harmonic complexity. Tone and volume controls remain balanced across all twelve pickup voicings, preventing volume drop when transitioning between humbucking and single-coil modes. This configuration suits working musicians navigating stylistic variability: session players recording across jazz, rock, and alternative contexts; touring performers avoiding the feedback vulnerability of fully hollow bodies; and studio-focused players who value tonal palette over minimalist aesthetics. The semi-hollow resonance adds natural colour to direct-to-interface recording, whilst the Narrowfield's articulation cuts effectively in dense mixes. Bedroom producers exploiting amp-in-the-box workflows will find the middle pickup's single-coil character particularly responsive to gain staging and effect layering.
