Key Features
Product Ref: 291566
The PRS SE 277 Semi-Hollow takes influence from the Custom 22 range and features the same double cutaway design with comfortable contours and bevelled lower horn. It is constructed with a chambered body that pairs perfectly with lower-output soapbar pickups for some lovely transparent and uncompressed tones. A 27.7'' scale length and factory-set B tuning gives you a deep resonance and access to expansive low-range sounds. It provides you with PRS's notorious attention to detail and versatility in an instrument that can provide a real signature voice in your collection.
The SE 277 Semi Hollow is crafted from resonant and warm-sounding mahogany with a maple top for added bright overtones and harmonic sparkle. This classic combination is coupled with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, providing the mid-focus and resonant tonal basis for this guitar. The chambered f-hole design gives great acoustic resonance, while the 'Wide Fat' neck profile feels instantly at home in the left hand.
The thin double cutaway asymmetric body of the SE 277 provides easy access to all 22 frets, with the lower horn featuring a bevelled cut to further assist your left hand. For a semi-hollow design, it offers a playing experience surprisingly like a solid body guitar. Medium frets are smoothly finished and the whole guitar sits comfortably in your hands with its bevelled top and set-neck design. The guitar is mounted with a comfortable plate-style bridge, ensuring maximum string resonance transfer and sustain.
The PRS features Soapbar pickups which are lower-output and designed to amplify the natural characteristics of the semi-hollow body. They bring a lovely uncompressed tone with great clarity and thick growl. They are capable of being overdriven and can deliver some distinct low-tuned blues and rock tones with real bite and mid-range punch. This guitar will be able to cover a surprising amount of genres and will deliver endless room for experimentation to help you find your new signature sounds.
Anyone who has heard Paul Reed Smith talk about guitars knows that he is fastidious in his research and development and his continual drive to improve his guitar designs. The PRS SE 277 is a true reflection of that, and the SE range has continued to evolve beyond it's initial design brief of being a "Student Edition" instrument. Pro-level machine-heads and bridges along with solid tonewoods and premium construction methods help to deliver accurate tuning and intonation with a fantastic playing experience. This is a true professional performer that can span the genres and deliver stunning tones and playability night after night.
