PRS 408 MT 10 Top Pattern Thin Tremolo Makena Blue NEW Absolutely NEW from the factory American PRS. The main difference from other PRS 408 guitars is the pickups, which were made to expand the tonal spectrum of the sound. They narrow down unwanted bass guitar frequencies that are unpleasant to the ear (as is well known, guitar frequencies are often cut during mastering) and expand the high-frequency tonal range, resulting in something between a narrowfield and a humbucker. Paul Reed Smith made these pickups before the serial production of guitars (before 1985) in the early 80s; they provide superb brightness, you can really hear acoustic notes as if there were a piezo. A very important point — the guitar provides 8 sounds — the mini-switches perform coil splits into single-coils WITHOUT LOSS OF VOLUME. This is simply amazing, as you do not need to turn up the volume during recording or a performance when switching the pickup from humbucker mode to single-coil mode. This guitar is a favorite of Paul Reed Smith himself; the first guitars with these pickups were made for artists Howard Leese, Davy Knowles, Michael Ault, Tom Wheeler. It is also worth noting that the V12 finish is used, which does not prevent the wood from revealing its overtones. A fast Pattern Thin neck and the best locking Phase III locking tuning machines available today, and a PRS tremolo that works in both directions! Body made of select mahogany with a select maple top of 10 TOP class 25 inch scale length Neck with rosewood fretboard, 22 frets Mother-of-pearl birds of artist class Paua Heart bird inlay Pickups - PRS Signature/408 treble and treble Tone, volume, 3-way switch Two mini-switches for humbucker coil splits Color - superb Makena Blue, most characteristic of PRS in my opinion The guitar also has hybrid hardware - gold and chrome, as an option on the Artist Package The guitar sounds heavenly on clean, very tasty on crunch and overdrive, even when rolling the tone knob down to zero!!! The color and the 10 top are simply mesmerizing! The guitar is in a warehouse in the USA. NEW, unopened in factory packaging. Delivery is possible to any point in the world. The price indicated is WITH DELIVERY to any CIS country.
