Punch. Drive. Exceptional clarity. That's exactly what you get with the Custom 22. Because PRS have loaded it with a pair of custom 85/15 humbuckers to ensure you hit the heights of performance. A breakthrough in pickup design at the time, the hailed treble and bass pickups were originally crafted in 1985 to get single-coil tones out of a noise-cancelling humbucker. And they still flourish to this day. Renowned for their distinctive modern-vintage sound, the PRS 85/15s kick out anything from sparkling cleans to all-out distortion, whilst maintaining astonishing clarity and note definition.
It meets the demands of the modern musician. Featuring a five-way selector, tone, and volume controls, you'll have the freedom to sculpt your tone to the exact sound you want. So you can easily switch up your guitar's voice to excel in any genre you wish, and it'll continue to maintain that hallmark PRS character. To top it off, there are two options for coil-split within the pickup selection to offer even more versatility in your playing, ensuring your creativity bears no restriction.
Ultimately, a guitar should spark creativity – not restrict it. Which is why every aspect of the Custom 22 is constructed with playability in mind. Experience easy transitions across the entirety of the fretboard thanks to an ultra-smooth rosewood surface. It's combined with a sleek mahogany neck that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, entailing endless hours of comfortable practice and performance. Enjoy effortless access to the upper frets with an ergonomic, dual-cutaway body design. So, whether you're shredding up high or unleashing fat, low-end riffs – the 22 offers a feel that's tailored for the player.
It doesn't stop at playability, though. A classic PRS Gen III Tremolo bridge opens up a new world of sonic possibilities. Dive bombs, vibrato – you name it. The Custom 22 can do it all. And, thanks to its meticulous design, you can have confidence that your strings will return to their original tuning after you're done hammering your riffs away. Because PRS know what's required for world class performance, and they've delivered just that.
It demands audience attention. With a finish so eye-catching and unique, how could it not? A flame top provides a breathtaking aesthetic, showcasing the Custom's sumptuous grain pattern. But its elegant design isn't just limited to the body. The iconic PRS bird inlays dance across the silky-smooth fretboard for even more individual flair. Topped off with a striking trampas green finish, the Custom 22 simply radiates one-of-a-kind style. So, whether you're rehearsing, or playing live – it's all eyes on you.
An instrument of such quality needs protecting. Which is why PRS have given you a hardshell case as well. Take your cherished instrument on the road, with the peace of mind that it'll be in pristine condition every time you play. Preventing scratching, scraping, or any other damage to your guitar, the hardshell case makes transporting between venues simple and stress-free ready for you to pull it out and start playing. No worries. No panic. Just the excitement of performance, the way it should be.
