The PRS S2 Vela features a satin nitro finish for its limited edition model, enhancing the guitar’s resonance while giving it some attitude. The satin finish also provides a matte texture, making it ideal for gigging musicians as it won’t glare under stage light and looks better in photographs, compared to a high-gloss finish. The satin nitro also protects the guitar from light dirt marks and fingerprints, keeping your guitar looking amazing even after constant playing.
Constructed from a Mahogany body and neck with a set-in design, the S2 Vela offers a warm and resonant tone with plenty of depth and grind. Mahogany is a medium to heavy wood, creating a strong and sturdy design that will stand up to the gigging musicians lifestyle. The neck’s set-in construction delivers an advanced sustain, as the increased contact between the neck and body allows vibrations to transfers easily between the neck heel and body.

The fixed design also improve string and tuning stability to provide a smooth playing experience.
