PRS's proprietary 58/15 LT pickups are designed for exceptional clarity and dynamic range, making the CE 22 perfect for players who crave a vintage-inspired tone with modern versatility. The push/pull tone control and 3-way toggle switch allow for a range of tones, from warm, full-bodied humbucking sounds to singing single-coil tones.

The vintage feel continues with a 22-fret, 25" scale length Pattern Regular neck that is instantly comfortable, familiar. The PRS CE 22 Limited Edition also comes with PRS Phase III Locking Tuners, featuring a handsome open-back design, unplated brass shafts, and highly usable gear ratio.

With its bolt-on construction, classic PRS aesthetics, and a voice that blends vintage warmth with bolt-on articulation, the CE 22 is a workhorse that's ready for any stage or studio.

I grab this guitar every chance I get. Visually the McCarty Sunburst with the understated flamed too reminds me of old Gibson's you'd pay a house for. 58/15LT's never disappoint. The Tapped/split (whichever the did) sounds are incredible. Sustain for days. Great feeling neck. I see why the old CE22 are impossible to find. You'd be a fool to sell it.

Musical Background:

44 years of GAS and imperfect practice

Musical Style:

Jazz, jam bands, rock.
