This 2005 PRS Swamp Ash Special in Cherry finish is a well played 20th Anniversary model. Lightweight, resonant, and remarkably responsive, the Swamp Ash Special occupies a special place in the PRS lineupbridging the gap between classic single-coil clarity and PRSs refined humbucking voice.
The solid swamp ash body paired with a maple neck gives the guitar an exceptional blend of snap, warmth, and dynamic touch sensitivity. The pickup configurationtwo PRS McCarty humbuckers flanking a Vintage Rail humbuckercreates a wide tonal palette that excels in blues, fusion, funk, and modern rock. Add in the PRS tremolo system and locking tuners and you get the reliability, tuning stability, and precision PRS is famous for.
This guitar was the main axe of a regular customer for years. The frets have been dressed, and there are years and years of life left. The guitar set up perfectly, as PRS guitars do. There is room in the truss rod for future neck relief adjustments. There are no changes, repairs, or issues with the guitar whatsoever. All the original paperwork is included in the original case.
It has been inspected, photographed accurately, and set up to perform its best here at Mahars Vintage Guitars. We buy, sell, and take trades on high-end instruments every day.
