The PRS S2 Swamp Ash Special – Vintage Natural is a distinctive and expressive guitar that brings together elegant aesthetics, versatile electronics, and premium tonewoods to create a truly inspiring instrument. Designed for players who demand tonal variety and smooth playability, this model stands out in the S2 lineup for its unique pickup configuration, resonant body wood, and refined craftsmanship.

At its core, the Swamp Ash Special features a lightweight, resonant swamp ash body, finished in a rich Vintage Natural high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer that enhances both the tone and grain of the wood. This classic finish not only brings out the organic beauty of the ash but also contributes to the guitar’s lively response and open tone. Paired with a maple neck and a East Indian rosewood fingerboard, the guitar strikes a perfect balance between snap and warmth, making it suitable for everything from blues and funk to rock and jazz.

The Pattern Regular neck carve offers a comfortable, universally appealing profile that fits naturally in the hand, while black side dots and the iconic PRS J-Bird inlays give the fingerboard a clean, upscale look. This combination of woods and neck shape ensures both stability and smooth, familiar playability across all 22 frets.

Tonally, the S2 Swamp Ash Special is a powerhouse of versatility. It features a trio of PRS pickups: the warm, articulate PRS 58/15 LT Bass humbucker in the neck, a punchy and focused Narrowfield humbucker in the middle, and a crisp 58/15 LT Treble humbucker in the bridge. This unique combination offers the best of both humbucking and single-coil tonalities, capable of everything from thick, vintage-inspired tones to sparkling cleans and modern edge. The 5-way blade switch allows for intuitive access to multiple pickup configurations, while two mini-toggle switches provide coil-splitting options that further expand the tonal palette.

Premium nickel hardware ties the instrument together, including a stable and expressive PRS Gen III tremolo and Phase III locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability and effortless performance. The guitar ships with PRS Signature .010 strings and comes housed in a durable gig bag, making it road-ready and practical for both stage and studio.

The S2 Swamp Ash Special – Vintage Natural is not just a guitar—it’s a statement piece that combines tradition, innovation, and sonic range. Whether you're a seasoned pro or an expressive player looking to explore new tonal territory, this model delivers with precision, elegance, and the unmistakable PRS touch.
