The NF 53 is Paul Reed Smith’s take on the classic T-type guitar, and arguably the Maryland company’s most daring new model since the release of the Silver Sky in 2018! The PRS NF 53 draws inspiration from one of Paul’s favourite vintage guitars from 1953, combining a Swamp Ash body with a 22-fret, 25.5″-scale bolt-on Maple neck. However, a special set of PRS Narrowfield DD (“Deep Dish”) pickups inject some modern warmth into the instrument, which are made with taller bobbins to fit more winds and extra metal pieces in between the magnets to yield a more focused, powerful tone.
Additional appointments on the PRS NF 53 include master volume and tone controls, a 3-way blade pickup switch, PRS Phase III tuners, and a steel plate-style bridge with barrel saddles for that old-school sound and aesthetic.
Paul Reed Smith on the NF 53:
“I am so pleased with the feedback from the artists who have played this guitar – everyone is telling us that we have something special here,” said Paul Reed Smith. “If you are a fan of this style and tone, the NF 53 will take you where you want to go. To me, to have this kind of beautiful high-end without the hum is game-changing.”
Key Features
- Sprayer’s Choice – This jaw-dropping, limited edition PRS Sprayer’s Choice NF 53 features a unique hand-selected Purple Metallic finish, perfectly showcasing PRS’s meticulous attention to detail and next-level craftsmanship.
- Phase III Tuners – The perfect blend of vintage aesthetic and modern design. Utilising unplated brass shafts for unparalleled tonal transfer as well as precision gear ratios for effortless tuning, the Phase III tuners are possibly the most thought-out guitar tuners.
