A Brief History of PRS Narrowfield Pickups!
Around 2008, Paul Reed Smith and new product engineers at PRS began experimenting with a design that would soon become the PRS ‘Narrowfield’ pickup, the idea was this: take the unique tone of a well-made, great-sounding single coil and combine that with the positive characteristics of a humbucking pickup (full sound, no hum). The resulting design contained the same general components of a ‘regular’ humbucker, but in a smaller footprint. The narrower design captures the vibration of a more focused section of the guitar’s strings, yielding a focused tone that is reminiscent of a powerful, full-sounding single coil.
Across our SE and S2 Series, we have 5 new models for you to explore, all equipped with PRS Narrowfield pickups. Explore the new models below to get a better grasp on their specs, features, and versatile tones!
