A Gorgeous Solidbody with Natural Acoustic Sound!
The PRS P22 Trem solidbody electric guitar gives you the classic tone of vintage-style humbuckers plus glorious, natural acoustic sound. The axe sports a beautiful figured maple top, and is fitted with a modified PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system that gives you gorgeous, full-bodied acoustic guitar tone. Separate output jacks and volume controls let you blend your piezo output with the P22's 57/08 pickups, or you can send it on a separate signal path. Factor in its fast neck, tasteful appointments, and vibrato tailpiece, and the PRS P22 Trem is a must-have.
PRS P22 Trem Solidbody Guitar at a Glance:
- Choice tonewoods protected with PRS's amazing V12 finish
- PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system lets you blend in natural acoustic tone
- Uncovered 57/08 pickups deliver sweetened humbucker sound
To give the P22 a rich yet balanced sound, PRS began by selecting the tried-and-true combination of mahogany topped with maple. The P22's mahogany body gives you natural tonal warmth, which really adds character to its acoustics. By nature, mahogany is a bit dark sounding, which is where the brighter tone of the maple top comes in. Together, these tonewoods give you an incredibly balanced sound. And thanks to PRS's ultra-durable V12 finish, the P22 feels and sounds like it's coated in well-worn nitro.
PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system lets you blend in natural acoustic toneRedesigned to fit the solidbody P22, the PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system onboard this guitar gives you access to the natural acoustic sound of its mahogany body. An control knob lets you blend the sound of this pickup in with the sound of the P22's humbuckers, adding a woodier quality and extra sustain to your tone. There's also a separate output next to the P22's main output that lets you send just the sound of the PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system to an acoustic amplifier. You're going to love the range of tones you can get out of this electric guitar!
Uncovered 57/08 pickups deliver sweetened humbucker soundSpeaking of tone, playing with even just the P22's 57/08 pickups is a wonderful experience. That's because PRS designed their 57/08 pickups to give you the sweetened sound you'd expect from real vintage humbuckers. They even went so far as to buy the same coil wire manufacturing machine that '50s-era guitar makers used to make some of the best sounding pickups in history - just so they could give guitars like the P22 the timeless tone you desire.
