Floyd Rose 1000 Series Tremolo Bridge

You can bend your Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo bridge at will without having to worry about your intonation getting out of control. This surprisingly flexible system will keep your strings secure and consistently return them to their natural tuning. The bridge also features tuners to make any micro adjustments to each string's tension when you utilize the locking nut system at the headstock. If you've never tried a Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo system, then you're in for a treat -- these 1000 Series trems are Korean-made with the same design and high-quality materials as the original.

Rich-Sounding Maple and Mahogany Body

Mahogany will guarantee that each note harnesses plenty of sustain, which is great for generating feedback when used in conjunction with high-gain settings on your amp or read more pedals. Mahogany also yields plenty of low-end and midrange punch. Maple brings in a rounded brightness, offering a nice balance to the darkness of mahogany. The beveled cut on this axe's body looks sleek and provides a comfortable fit against your front.

Wide Thin Maple Neck

The wide thin profile of your PRS SE Floyd Rose Custom 24's maple neck is a nice fit for a hand that likes to move quickly and effortlessly -- ideal for shredders. Maple necks pick up on the attack and aggressiveness of your playing, which can be helpful for tapping, hammer-on, and pull-off techniques.

SE Vintage Bass and SE HFS Treble Humbucker Set

This guitar looks sleek, plays well, and sounds like a beast. The SE Vintage Bass humbucker at the neck projects a thicker output with plenty of body, and the SE HFS Treble humbucker cuts through the air like a knife. Crank up the gain, and get some sweet controlled feedback that'll steal the attention of anyone within earshot.

I have had mine a month now and of all my guitar's it is the best. I have been buying Epiphone {Wildkat & Riviera} and a low end Strats, a Godin Session, Ibanez 12 String Artcore and a Gibson Les Paul Standard. This PRS is the best. The string pressure is easy and bends easy, the tone and sustain are incredible. The Floyd Rose 1000 Tremolo is the best Tremolo I have ever had among the Bigsby's I have {Wildkat and Rivera} the way the strings have the lock down clamp lock at the head and then the fine tuning knobs on the bridge allow me to dial it in so fast and precise. Everything about it says why I paid $900 and change for thids guitar. I will probably get an American made PRS in the future. I have a Godin Ultra A6 in my blood I need to get past 1st.
