PRS have announced new guitars and updates to their product line at this year’s NAMM show. One new guitar they’ve announced is the PRS Studio. The Studio combines two single-coil 57/08 Narrowfield pickups with a 57/08 humbucker in the bridge position. A five-blade switch is used to switch between the pickups. The guitar also features a mahogany back and neck with a maple top and a rosewood fretboard. PRS have refined their neck shapes for 2011, and the Studio model has what they call a “pattern neck” with an available “pattern thin option”. Other new features for 2011 include new side markers, new birds, and redesigned lampshade knobs. Here’s a video of Paul Reed Smith discussing the new Studio model:
