New solid body and semi hollow soapbar guitars announced

PRS Guitars has added two new baritone models to its SE line – the SE 277 and the SE 277 Semi-Hollow Soapbar.  Names for its baritone 27.7” scale length neck and tuned B to B two and a half steps below standard, the SE 277 Semi Hollow Soapbar is designed to ‘take the traditional mahogany back/maple top platform to new territories’ with its chambered back, f-hole, and dual soapbar pickup configuration. The semi-hollow body provides increased acoustic resonance, while the soapbars offer a balance of diverse tones.

Meanwhile, the SE 277, which features the same 27.7” baritone scale length, comes with a solid body and PRS SE dual humbucking pickups.  “These guitars are a perfect fit for everything from country to surf rock to metal,” said  PRS Artist Relations. “They are comfortable to play with a shred-worthy feel and handle alternate tunings like a beast.”

Additional specifications for both the SE 277 Semi Hollow Soapbar and SE277 include a beveled maple top with flame maple veneer, mahogany back, 22-fret maple neck with rosewood fingerboard with bird inlays, PRS-designed plate-style bridge, PRS-designed tuners, volume and tone with a three-way toggle pickup switch.

Available Finishes:

SE277 Semi Hollow Soapbar: Gray Black and Vintage Sunburst
SE277: Black Cherry and Tobacco Sunburst
