- Versatile tones: Suitable for clean sounds, blues, rock, pop, fusion, alternative music, heavier styles and much more.
- Comfortable playability: Smooth neck profiles and balanced body designs help make PRS guitars comfortable for practice, recording and live performance.
- Distinctive design: Recognisable body shapes, detailed finishes and signature bird inlays give many PRS guitars an unmistakable identity.
- Wide choice of models: Options range from accessible SE instruments to USA-made S2, CE and Core models.
- Modern and traditional influences: PRS guitars often combine familiar electric guitar sounds with modern construction, switching options and performance-focused features.
Which PRS Guitar Is Right for You?
PRS SE Guitars
The PRS SE range is a strong choice for players who want the design, feel and versatility associated with PRS at a more accessible price. SE models include solidbody, semi-hollow, hollowbody, signature and acoustic designs, making the range suitable for beginners, progressing players and experienced musicians alike.
Popular options can include the PRS SE Custom 24, SE CE, SE McCarty 594, SE Silver Sky, SE NF 53 and selected signature models.
PRS S2 Guitars
PRS S2 guitars are made in the USA and offer a step up for players looking for American construction, professional performance and the familiar feel of classic PRS designs. They can be particularly appealing to gigging musicians, studio players and anyone upgrading from an entry-level or mid-priced instrument.
PRS CE Guitars
PRS CE models use a bolt-on neck design, helping to deliver a lively response, clear attack and immediate playing feel. They are ideal for players who enjoy the precision and versatility of PRS but prefer the character associated with a bolt-on electric guitar.
PRS Core and Premium Models
PRS Core guitars represent the brand’s premium USA-made instruments. These models are aimed at players and collectors seeking high-level materials, detailed finishes, advanced electronics and carefully refined construction.
Depending on availability, our collection may also include limited editions, Artist models, Wood Library instruments, 10 Top guitars and other specialist PRS designs.
PRS Silver Sky Guitars
Developed for players who prefer a familiar double-cutaway shape and articulate single-coil-style tones, the PRS Silver Sky family is well suited to blues, pop, funk, rock, soul and expressive lead playing. Both USA-made and SE versions may appear within our collection.
PRS McCarty 594 Guitars
McCarty 594 models are a strong option for players who enjoy rich, traditional-inspired tones, comfortable control layouts and the feel of a substantial single-cut or double-cut electric guitar. Selected models also provide flexible switching for a broader range of sounds.
PRS Semi-Hollow and Hollowbody Guitars
PRS semi-hollow and hollowbody guitars offer greater acoustic resonance and a more open response than a traditional solidbody. They are particularly appealing for blues, jazz, soul, rock, ambient music and players who want a guitar with warmth, depth and visual impact.
New, Nearly New and Used PRS Guitars
Buying a new PRS guitar gives you access to current models, finishes and specifications, while choosing a nearly new, ex-display or second hand PRS can offer outstanding value or the chance to own a model that is no longer widely available.
Used PRS guitars can be especially desirable because individual finishes, specifications and production periods may be difficult to replace. Once a particular pre-owned instrument has sold, an identical example may not become available again.
Every used PRS guitar is individually assessed and described so you can understand its condition before purchasing. Where relevant, cosmetic marks, modifications, included accessories and other important details will be shown within the individual product listing.
Who Are PRS Guitars Suitable For?
PRS guitars are suitable for a broad range of players, including:
- Beginners looking for a high-quality first electric guitar
- Intermediate players ready to upgrade their instrument
- Professional musicians needing reliable stage and studio performance
- Players who need one guitar to cover several styles
- Collectors looking for distinctive finishes or limited-production models
- Guitarists moving from traditional single-cut, double-cut or bolt-on designs
- Musicians searching for a premium used guitar at a more accessible price
What to Consider When Buying a PRS Guitar
Pickups and Electronics
Consider whether you prefer powerful humbucker tones, clear single-coil-style sounds or a guitar with switching options that can cover both. Some PRS models include coil-splitting, individual pickup controls or piezo systems for additional versatility.
Body Style
Solidbody PRS guitars provide a focused response and strong sustain, while semi-hollow and hollowbody models offer additional resonance and openness. Single-cut and double-cut designs can also feel noticeably different when sitting or standing.
Neck Feel
PRS guitars are available with different neck shapes, scale lengths and fretboard specifications. The best choice depends on your hand size, playing technique and whether you prefer a slimmer, faster feel or a more substantial neck profile.
Tremolo or Fixed Bridge
A tremolo-equipped PRS is ideal for expressive pitch effects, while a fixed bridge can provide a simple, stable setup for players who prefer straightforward tuning changes and a more traditional feel.
New or Second Hand
A new PRS may be the best option when you want a current specification or particular finish. A used PRS can provide greater value, access to discontinued models or the opportunity to purchase a higher-tier instrument within your available budget.
