PRS Special Edition Artist V - Amber Black
The Artist Series began in 1991. This series experimented with component and structural updates that enhanced the tone of the guitar and brought more decoration with it. The Artist V is the first example of this series in nearly 15 years. Continuing the tradition of harmonizing tone and beauty, the Artist V features new pickups spec’d by Paul Reed Smith, our 2011 redesigned 5-way blade switch (previously featured only on the 2011 Custom 24), beautiful inlays and purfling, and only the best woods. Gold hardware and a selective color list, including three new colors (Blue Crab Blue, Eriza Verde, and Purple Hazel), complete the Artist V’s special offerings.

Position One: Bridge humbucker
