PRS [USED] Santana Retro (Tobacco Sunburst) [SN.251047]

Used items of legendary guitarist Carlos Santana signature model are in stock!

Since Carlos Santana and Paul Reed Smith, one of the earliest PRS users, presented a guitar for his favorite guitarist backstage at a certain live in the early 80's. I have been using PRS guitars in this shape called the Santana shape for over 30 years.
Released during the long partnership between Carlos Santana and Paul Reed Smith, the latest versions of the various signature models and their variations are the early "pre-factory" Paul made for Carlos in the early 1980s. Made as a tribute to the guitar.

The wood material is the same as the previous Santana model, with a maple top/mahogany back body and a jointed mahogany neck. It's a sound that will convince any guitarist.
The deeper body curve, original style heel, rosewood fingerboard with cell binding, original headstock shape, etc., are the specifications that are reminiscent of the earliest guitars, even though it is the latest model.

The bridge uses Gen3 Tremolo, which has been used in various regular models since the 2017 model.
Originally, PRS Tremolo has a reputation for preventing tuning errors when using an arm, but the Gen3 Tremolo has a groove cut in the part where the set screw of the saddle of the bridge plate is installed, and at the same time, the 6 saddles are very tight. It prevents the saddle from slipping sideways and minimizes the tuning error.
In addition, by increasing the diameter of the bridge mounting screws and leaving the saddle height adjustment screws, saddle mounting screws, and parts of the saddle that hit the strings unplated, we contribute to rich overtones and sustain. .

For the pickup, the latest 85/15 covered version 58/15 is installed in the rear position, and SANTANA BASS is installed in the front position as in the previous model. Rich midrange and outstanding sustain, total balance is a sound that convinces all guitarists.

In terms of the condition of this individual, there is a paint chip on the lower part of the body top, and there are dullness on the metal parts that are often seen in PRS. It is a ready-to-use individual with no problems with the electrical system or performance, so don't miss it!
