513
513 stands for 5 pickups and 13 sounds. The 513 Mahogany is an
updated version of our original 513 Rosewood Model. It features
a mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, updated electronics and includes
our patented pickup system providing 13 modern and vintage sounds
utilizing 5 proprietary single coil pickups. Other specifications
include a 25 1/4" scale length, a special neck joint, 513
bird inlays and an easy to use integrated electronics control package,
which includes volume control, tone control and two blade switches.
One blade switch is a 5-way pickup selector, and the other is a
3-way mode switch that allows you to select between the single
coil, clear humbucking and heavy humbucking modes. This is one
of our most versatile instruments that can go from screaming humbuckers
to sparkling single coils with the flick of a 3-way.

McCarty Korina
Korina, also known as Limba, is an African wood renown for its
legendary tonal qualities that add mids to the usually more mellow
mahogany sound. And it's this wood that gives the McCarty Korina
its unique, highly musical sound - and makes it a very light guitar.
The hardware and electronics are classic PRS: vintage-style tuners,
McCarty truss rod cover and humbucking or soapbar pickups.
These features combined with the tonal qualities of the guitar's
construct creates an instrument that is incredibly articulate,
with tight attack, excellent sustain, and outstandingly bright
tones that make it the perfect instrument for players of jazz,
rock and blues.

Mira
The Mira is a guitar for today's players with a classic feel and
tone but with the quality and stability you've come to expect from
a PRS instrument. This model features a thinner, solid mahogany body,
24-fret neck, matching pickguard and trussrod cover, Mira pickups,
three-way pickup selector and a mini toggle coil tap. This combination
of features lends a new voice to the PRS lineup.

"It's simple. It's light. It's classic, and it's powerful.
We're happy that after many years of discussing concepts like this,
we are finally able to bring them to market and give people new options.
It's definitely a ’Äòless is more statement,' but quality is still
the most important feature of this guitar." ’Äì Joe Knaggs, Director
of R&D.
The Mira X features a solid African basswood body, a sipo mahogany
neck and a pau ferro fretboard. This wood selection contributes
to the light-weight, understated look and feel of this guitar.

Modern Eagle II
The newly updated Modern Eagle II builds on the tradition of the
Modern Eagle with premium grade wood, classic Modern Eagle frets
and a Modern Eagle wide fat neck carve and adds to that an all
new pickup system and updated finishing techniques.
The 1957/2008 pickups offered standard on the Modern Eagle II
allow players to achieve both vintage and modern sounds. PRS obtained
exclusive rights to the original pickup wire used in the most revered
pickups in the 50's. PRS obtained the rights to the wire in 2008,
and 1957 was the year the humbucker was first commercially available,
giving rise to the 1957/2008 name.

under the strings give the instrument a voice that is classic,
eminently recordable and gig ready.
