Pery few guitarists can claim a tone as immediately recognizable as Carlos Santana. His signature PRS electric guitars are a huge part of that sound. With this PRS SE Santana, that same sound can be yours at an unbelievably accessible price. Yet the top-tier construction, solid mahogany body, and understated elegance of binding and bird inlays remind you that you're still getting an amazing instrument in every way. The PRS SE Santana even boasts a pair of Santana "S" humbucking pickups, further nailing the tonal character that has made Santana a legend.

PRS-quality construction and hardware

The all-mahogany body of the SE Santana Standard gives you warm, detailed tones that make your music jump out of the guitar. The SE Santana Standard's mahogany neck has a wide-fat carve, making it very comfortable for players who prefer a vintage feel. And the distinctive neck joint means you can reach all 22 frets easily for stellar high-fret access. The hardware is, as always, very stable and dependable. Take it from Music Experience — you can count on the PRS-designed tremolo bridge and tuners to keep the SE Santana Standard in tune while allowing you to express yourself at home, onstage, or in the studio.

High-class, yet subtle appearance

This PRS SE Santana Standard displays its mahogany construction proudly through its stunning translucent finish, the wood grain assuring you of the natural tones that are to come. Around the perimeter of this guitar, you'll find binding that sets the top and back of the guitar apart in a truly artistic manner. As your eyes move up the SE Santana Standard's rosewood fingerboard, you'll find the company's iconic birds in flight inlaid in beautiful mother-of-pearl. And Paul Reed Smith's signature adorns the headstock to complete this guitar's exquisite look.

PRS-designed Santana "S" humbucking pickups

Whether you're going for those fluid tones of Carlos Santana or working on your own melodic stylings, the PRS-designed Santana "S" humbucking pickups loaded in this solidbody electric guitar make exploration of sound a joy. These pickups have been poured over by PRS and Carlos to get as close as possible to the US-made humbuckers Santana uses. You'll be able to enjoy the same levels of tonal detail, sustain, and thickness that have made Santana a legend.

What PRS Says...

Carlos Santana’s influence as a PRS artist led to the development of our SE electric guitar series, which launched in 2001. In honor of that legacy, PRS is proud to offer the SE Santana model. The SE Santana features a 24.5” scale length on a 24 fret neck, the PRS patented molded tremolo, Santana "S" humbuckers, and the same Santana body shape silhouette as Santana’s revered American-made PRS models. We believe this guitar and its appointments honor Santana’s skill and style better than ever and offer players great quality and value. Be sure to try an SE Santana at an authorized dealer near you.
