Overview
Known for his work in Alter Bridge, Slash and the Conspirators, and his own solo recordings, Myles Kennedy is an accomplished guitarist who brings blues and jazz style to rock guitar playing. This signature model mirrors Kennedy's rock sensibilities with a nod to historic designs. While the aesthetic may have players hearing chicken pickin' in their heads -- and this guitar can certainly reach twang territory -- it is made to play like a rock machine.
"This guitar captures the spirit of my favorite older instruments. With that said, since PRS developed this guitar, most of my vintage instruments rarely see the light of day," says Kennedy.
The PRS Myles Kennedy signature guitar features a swamp ash body, a 22-fret, 25.5" scale length maple neck with maple fretboard, and two PRS Narrowfield MK pickups.
The PRS Narrowfield MK pickups were carefully voiced to capture the courage of humbuckers and the spank of single coils. PRS Narrowfields provided the perfect starting point for this design, with their ability to deliver thick single-coil sounds without the hum. These pickups are paired with a 5-way blade switch and a push/pull tone control that acts as a preset tone rolloff, bringing down the higher frequencies on the treble pickup so you can dig in to the fullest.
"I watched Myles throughout his career alternate between humbucking and single coil sounds without giving anything up on either side. These pickups took PRS months to dial in, and I think they capture that balance… read more that Myles mastered beautifully," says Paul Reed Smith.
Other features include a PRS plate-style steel bridge, vintage-style locking tuners, bone nut, and Kennedy's "Geometric Owl" logo from his "Ides of March" solo release, representing wisdom and adaptability.

I have been a LP guy my whole life. Never had a tele. But this guitar while it can give you that tele twang is so much more than that. It can get as heavy as you want and never gets muddied up. The five way switch can dial many different tones. The fret board is a breeze to play. Quality of course from PRS is top notch. But ultimately the sound and tones from this beauty are amazing. Don't be fooled by the looks of this guitar it is a beast! As Myles said Swiss Army knife of guitars! It is a must buy!
