Product Description
Available now at Northeast Music Center!
The PRS name isn't often associated with the bass guitar, but their craftsmanship and attention to detail are ever present in this instrument. 22 frets and the single coil pickups give this bass the sound to match it's vintage heart design. Rolling all the volume into the Bridge pickup produces a signature jazz tone that our bassist on staff is borderline addicted to. The Bass is a 5 piece maple & Walnut Neck Through construction with Alder "Wings" on the body. The Hipshot Bridge has 2 string mounting positions for increased tonal possibilities.
The SE Kestrel takes a traditional singlecoil bass platform and adds PRS’s fit, finish, and attention to detail, delivering a new take on a classic instrument. No matter the style or decade, the Kestrel can achieve every bass part you loved growing up.
Kestrel (4B ‘S’) pickups are extremely punchy and focused, giving player the ability to walk a low-mid focused blues line, articulate a high-mid focused fretless style part rich with harmonics, nail the scooped midrange and sweet top-end sound slappers favor, and wield a razor sharp blistering rock bassline. This bass has growl to burn!
