Key Features
It was celebrated virtually. But that doesn’t mean it’s not worthy of a spectacle. The PRS Modern Eagle V was appointed as a limited edition to commemorate the 2020 Experience PRS event. And, it certainly does the job boasting a five-coil pickup configuration built up with hum/single/hum. Plus a unique, new switching system with coil-split capabilities lets you push your sound even further. What's more, not only does this guitar electrify everyone and everything in range during a live setting, it’s also the ideal recording partner. So hit the stage or studio with divine diversity.
But the tricks don’t end there. A volume pot value feature lets you switch between 500k and 250k via a mini toggle. This lets you play with classic PRS tone or get stuck into experimenting with a whole new world of PRS soundscape. “While Experience PRS 2020 was unable to happen at the PRS Factory this year, it is important to us to still release the products we had planned to the guitar community. These Modern Eagle guitars are very sophisticated pieces of gear both electronically and mechanically. They are highly musical instruments” - Paul Reed Smith.

Take your sound where it needs to go. The two TCIs and middle single-coil offer plenty of output while being well balanced tonally. You'll be unlocking heaps of sonic potential through these pickups at the hands of a single volume and a push/pull tone control that activates both humbuckers as well as the volume pot toggle. Expect your chords to ring out like bells and riffs to excel with unrivalled definition. Whether you’re playing lead lines or rhythm, know your sound is projected with ultimate quality.
It was constructed for the 2020 experience, so you’ll be expecting modern playability. And you’re right to. PRS haven't let you down with a pattern mahogany neck topped with a smooth Honduran rosewood fretboard allowing you to comfortably hit high speeds and perform riffs with ease. Plus you can take these riffs all the way into space. The contoured cutaway gives you unrestricted access to the higher frets letting you effortlessly weep out those searing notes. Top it all off with Hybrid hardware along with Phase III tuners and you know that your tuning and intonation will always be at its peak.
It doesn't stop at playability, though. You need more than that to show off your individual style. Well, PRS have your back. A Patented Tremolo bridge opens up a new world of sonic possibilities from dive bombs to vibrato. You name it, this guitar can do it all. And, thanks to its meticulous design, you can have confidence that your strings will return to their original tuning after you're done hammering your riffs away. PRS know what's required for world class performance, and they've delivered just that.
It demands audience attention. With a finish so eye-catching and unique, how could it not? A maple 10 top provides a breathtaking aesthetic, showcasing the sumptuous grain pattern. But its elegant design isn't just limited to the body. The iconic PRS bird inlays dance across the silky-smooth fretboard for even more individual flair. Topped off with a striking charcoal finish, the Modern Eagle V simply radiates one-of-a-kind style. So, whether you're rehearsing, or playing live – it's all eyes on you.
