Notes: The guitars made by the Paul Reed Smith company are among the most influential and highly coveted electric instruments made anywhere by anyone. The PRS Hollowbody series was introduced in 1998, to create a new type of instrument with the warmth of a hollow soundchamber and the sustain and feedback resistance of a solid body. The Hollowbody I enhanced acoustic tone with a solid carved spruce soundboard, and two powerful PRS humbuckers.
At a featherweight 4lb, 14oz, the Hollowbody I is blissfully lighter than contemporary solid bodies, and a positive delight to hold: it simply floats on the lap or the strap. Smooth, low action over a fresh high-precision setup, on PRS' beloved 'Wide-Fat' neck profile, full and solid in the hand. A special bonus is the stacked master tone pot, which adds a pickup blend knob, for smooth analog mixing of the twin PRS humbuckers, vastly enhancing the variety of tonal colors.
Deeply resonant, and exceptionally comfortable, the PRS Hollowbody 1 is a particularly versatile instrument for the demanding player
