The PRS Vela has always been a fan favourite thanks to its sleek offset design and sparkling tone. Now, the PRS S2 Vela HHT takes things up a notch with a more contemporary vibe, courtesy of powerful dual humbuckers and a tremolo bridge.

Versatile Vela electronics

Loaded with a pair of DS-01 pickups, this beauty dishes out everything from glassy cleans to a punchier, beefed-up low end. The exposed pole pieces give you a snappier attack, perfect if you want extra bite in your tone. And with a push/pull tone control, you can tap the humbuckers for even more tonal flexibility — ideal for switching things up mid-song.

PRS Patented Tremolo

Add PRS’s legendary trem into the mix, and you’ve got a guitar that’s ready for expressive leads, shimmering chords and everything in between.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
