PRS 509 With Pattern Regular Neck Electric Guitar Faded Whale Blue
Description
The PRS 509 with Pattern Regular Neck is a sonic powerhouse built to handle any musical style with authority. This premium electric guitar packs five pickups and an innovative switching system unlocking a universe of tonal possibilities. Crafted with PRS's signature attention to detail, the 509 delivers world-class sound and playability for discerning musicians.
Premium Tonewoods and Appointments Throughout
Like every PRS guitar, the 509 is built from a premium tonewood recipe designed to inspire. Its carved figured maple top and mahogany back and neck produce a harmonically rich fundamental with plenty of warmth and character. The 22-fret rosewood fingerboard features jumbo frets for effortless bending and vibrato. PRS Phase III locking tuners maintain tuning accuracy. The 509 simply feels and sounds like a high-end instrument in every regard.
Expanded Tonal Range With 25.25" Scale
While the 509's pickup configuration unlocks a world of sounds, its extended 25.25" scale length further expands its sonic palette. This longer scale enhances the upper harmonic overtones, adding extra shimmer and chime to every note. You'll experience heightened resonance and sustain whether playing chords or leads. It's an inspired design choice that makes the 509 feel alive in your hands.
Unlock a World of Tonal Possibilities
At the heart of the PRS 509 lies its innovative five-pickup configuration, with four coils wired as humbuckers flanking a single-coil in the middle position. A 5-way blade selector allows you to tap into everything from thick, powerful humbucking tones to bright, articulate single-coils—or blend the two together for a unique voice all its own. Two push/pull tone pots let you split the outer humbucker coils for even more timbral variety. With this level of versatility at your fingertips, you'll be able to craft the perfect sound for any genre or musical setting.
Rock-Solid Performance From the Gen III Tremolo
The 509's Gen III tremolo is another PRS innovation that sets it apart. This patented double-locking system anchors strings at both the bridge and tuners, maintaining bulletproof tuning stability through even the wildest whammy workouts. Its machined brass block rings with dynamic resonance and sustain. Whether you're laying down searing solos or unleashing dive bombs, the Gen III tremolo keeps up without ever losing its tuning.
