PRS Sunburst 245 2009 Electric Guitar

This is a PRS Sunburst 245 Electric Guitar in Sunburst finish. Made in the USA in 2009, this guitar consists of a Mahogany body with a Figured Maple top, a Mahogany neck, and a 22-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include a PRS Stoptail bridge, Vintage Style tuners, and a set of PRS 57/08 Humbucking pickups. These pickups are wired to two volume controls, two tone controls, and a three-way pickup selector.

The Mahogany neck plays superbly well, with the ‘Wide Fat’ profile offering a smooth, responsive and articulate paying experience in all registers. Certainly, the profile is well suited to lead players as it is slim enough for fast melodic lines and solos. The gloss finish to the rear of the neck assists with navigation of the 24.5” scale, and the single cutaway body design with signature PRS sculpted lower horn enhances access to the upper frets. The Rosewood of the fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, its 10” radius feeling practical for a wide range of playing styles and techniques whilst the attractive and unique Abalone inlays add a touch of luxury to the playing experience.

The pair of PRS 57/08 humbucker pickups sound thick and raw, with a solid output that pushes the front end of an amp nicely. The neck pickup is full sounding and warm, whilst the midrange is perfectly balanced and easily cuts through any mix. The bridge has a hotter output, it produces a biting tone which easily cuts through the mix for those rock rhythm sounds and has a great harmonic register. The independent volume and tone controls offer comprehensive control of your sound, feeling very responsive to small changes.
