Introducing Myles Kennedy's first signature model. Known for his work in Alter Bridge, Slash and the Conspirators, and his own solo recordings, Kennedy is an accomplished guitarist who brings blues and jazz style to rock guitar playing. This new signature model mirrors Kennedy's rock sensibilities with a nod to historic designs. While the aesthetic may have players hearing chicken pickin' in their heads - and this guitar can certainly reach twang territory - it is made to play like a rock machine.
The PRS Myles Kennedy signature guitar features a swamp ash body, a 22-fret, 25.5" scale length maple neck with maple fretboard, and two PRS Narrowfield MK pickups. The PRS Narrowfield MK pickups were carefully voiced to capture the courage of humbuckers and the spank of single coils. PRS Narrowfields provided the perfect starting point for this design, with their ability to deliver thick single-coil sounds without the hum. These pickups are paired with a 5-way blade switch and a push/pull tone control that acts as a preset tone rolloff, bringing down the higher frequencies on the treble pickup so you can dig in to the fullest.
"This guitar captures the spirit of my favorite older instruments. With that said, since we developed this guitar, most of my vintage instruments rarely see the light of day,"
- Myles Kennedy.
