The Starla, the newest addition in a line of retro inspired solidbody electrics from PRS, is also being unveiled as part of the Experience PRS 2008 open house event.
Similar in spirit to the double cutaway Mira model introduced at Experience PRS 2007, the single cutaway Starla has many vintage themed appointments and is PRS Guitars’ first solidbody electric guitar featuring a standard Bigsby B5 tail piece and a Grover Tune-O-Matic bridge. The guitar also includes exclusive Starla Treble and Bass pickups.
The solid mahogany Starla body is accented with a 24 ½” scale rosewood fingerboard, a solid mahogany neck and dot inlays or optional bird inlays. Proprietary Alnico magnets incorporated into the pickup design contribute to the guitar’s unique clean and crisp sound but are also capable of rich harmonic overtones when driven. Other features include a uniquely shaped black plastic pick guard, tone and volume pots and a three-way pickup selector. Color options include Vintage Cherry, Vintage Mahogany, Vintage Orange and Black.
This is a Press Release
They’re all pretty good guitars Gus!
Big gus you are full of sh1t. shut the fck up
Wow!
Leave it to PRS to resort to blatant commercially motivated piece of crap. It’s a boring instrument that will no doubt cost four times a much as it’s worth.
Once upon a time, PRS made excellent instruments with innovative construction and awesome tone. Now they’re all kiln dried timber, carved on a CNC machine and finished with the thickest poly finish that only serves to look pretty and dull tone. How much should you pay for an instrument made by a machine from kiln dried timber?
They’re only in it for the money now. Hard to take them seriously.
that’s purdy!
that is a pretty guitar and sure seems like a devaition from typical PRS styling
