A Hollowbody Workhorse for the Studio and Stage

Players who demand exceptional versatility will quickly fall in love with the PRS Hollowbody II Piezo 10-Top. This hollowbody electric guitar features twin maple 10-Tops for the top and back, with resonant mahogany sandwiched between. Paired with the 1-piece mahogany neck, the guitar produces a bright and lively sound with sweet sustain. And when you plug in, two 58/15 LT humbuckers deliver that coveted late ’50s humbucker tone with the clarity modern musicians rely on. Still, that’s not all this axe can do. When you need acoustic tones, flip the toggle switch, and the piezo elements in each bridge saddle supply the goods right away. Other Sweetwater-favorite features are Phase III locking tuners for improved tuning stability and eye-catching hybrid hardware. In conclusion, the Hollowbody II Piezo 10-Top is a one-stop shop for versatile tones and fantastic playability.

Immaculate tonewoods and unique construction

Did you know that when you buy a PRS Hollowbody II Piezo 10-Top, you actually get two 10-Tops? That’s right, both the maple top and back of this playable work of art showcase the strong, defined woodgrain that makes them 10-Tops. While its visual appeal is nothing less than stunning, the Hollowbody II Piezo design has another trick up its sleeve. Instead of gluing braces to the top and back for support, PRS starts with an extra-thick slab of maple and carves the bracing into the top and back. Since the top and bracing are one piece, the instrument enjoys enhanced stability, extra projection, and harmonious resonance across the entire register. Plus, you’ll never have to worry about a brace shaking loose decades down the line.

Fine-tuned 58/15 LT pickups

Plug the Hollowbody II Piezo into your favorite tube amp, and it will reward you with satisfying tones. The maple top comes loaded with a pair of marvelous 58/15 LT humbuckers. Inspired by the legendary humbuckers from the late ’50s, PRS’ 58/15 LT pickups provide the perfect balance between the warm, sweet tones vintage enthusiasts love and the modern clarity that today’s players demand. What’s more, these pickups feature fewer winds than normal to tame the output and provide a more vintage-accurate tone.

Piezo bridge with dedicated output

The Hollowbody II Piezo includes PRS’s adjustable bridge with an integrated piezo system. Developed in collaboration with LR Baggs, this proprietary design features an isolated piezo element in each saddle for acoustic-style tones whenever you need them. And with the integrated 3-way piezo toggle, you can switch between using the piezo only, both the piezo and the pickups, or just the pickups. The blend knob balances each of the signals to taste. However, when you plug into the dedicated piezo output, the blend knob becomes a master volume for the piezo system only.

The finer details

Paul Reed Smith’s obsessive quest for perfection means that the Hollowbody II Piezo 10-Top is chock-full of finer details. First, the 1-piece mahogany neck features PRS’s iconic Pattern neck profile with a 1-11/16-inch nut width for a “pre-factory” feel. Meanwhile, the rosewood fingerboard features a 10-inch radius, 25-inch scale, and expertly dressed frets that play perfectly right out of the case. The Hollowbody II Piezo also boasts high-quality components, including Phase III locking tuners and hybrid hardware. And to wrap it all up, this guitar features PRS’s abalone Bird inlays and Paul’s signature inlaid into the headstock veneer.
