The SE A40 Angelus gives you PRS quality in an affordable acoustic-electric guitar that begs to be played live. Its X-brace/classical hybrid bracing is shared with PRS's USA and Private Stock lines for optimum clarity and projection. Guitarists here at Music Experience can't get enough of the warm and articulate sound of its spruce and laminated ovangkol construction. And the PRS under-saddle electronics let you take your SE A40 Angelus onstage and get the same acoustic tone you love. The PRS SE A40 Angelus delivers custom acoustic features without the custom acoustic price tag.

    PRS's X-brace/classical hybrid bracing

    PRS's proprietary X-brace/classical hybrid bracing method blends the techniques of some of the most legendary acoustic guitar luthiers in history. This bracing pairs resonant tops with stiff and reflective backs and sides, offering a powerful tone that doesn't mask the intricacies of your playing style. The SE A40 shares this bracing design with PRS's USA-made production and private stock acoustic guitars. It's a high-end feature you'd expect to find on custom acoustics costing thousands of dollars, but it can be yours at an affordable price.

    Fine tonewoods meet signature PRS appointments

    The PRS SE A40 Angelus features an Angelus body with a solid spruce top and laminated ovangkol back and sides. The neck of this A40 Angelus follows Paul Reed Smith's wide neck shape and is carved from choice mahogany. A bound ebony fretboard gives the neck a smooth feel and rich tones. And the signature bird inlays denote the Angelus as a member of the PRS family. The SE A40 Angelus manages to strike the perfect balance between modern eye-catching adornments and a traditional acoustic appearance!

    Fishman pickup system provides excellent sound onstage

    Getting your acoustic guitar tone to translate in a live environment can be tricky. That's why PRS outfitted their SE A40 Angelus with a PRS-voiced Fishman Sonitone pickup. Enjoy the dynamic, natural sound of the Sonitone, and shape your acoustic's sound to your liking with its individual rotary controls for master volume and tone. And the controls' low-profile design does away with unsightly electronics dominating the look of your guitar.

    What PRS Says...

    The PRS SE A40E pairs Ovangkol back and sides with a solid spruce top for full, lush tone. When matched with PRS hybrid“X”/Classical bracing, which allows the top to freely vibrate, the SE A40E’s voice projects with breathtaking volume and delicate nuance. The Angelus Cutaway body shape delivers comfort and playability, well suited for picking and fingerstyle playing. Plugged in, the PRS-Voiced Fishman Sonitone pickup system delivers dynamic, organic tone and allows players to easily take this guitar from rehearsal to the stage. This electronics system features an undersaddle pickup and soundhole mounted preamp with easy-to-access volume and tone controls. Additional high-quality features include a solid spruce top, ebony fretboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, as well as PRS trademark bird inlays and headstock design. Ships with a high-quality hardshell case.
