PRS Nick Catanese SE 2012

From Our Research Team:

Fast Neck, Hot Pickups, Edgy Look!

Get the PRS Nick Catanese SE solidbody electric guitar and get a guitar that can finally keep pace with you! Made for shredding, this PRS axe is the signature model for Nick "Evil Twin" Catanese, of Zakk Wylde and Black Label Society fame. Zakk Wylde dubbed Catanese "Evil Twin" for one clear reason: Catanese could actually keep up with Zakk's level of shreddery. That's why PRS and Nick got together to put together the Nick Catanese SE - an axe that embodies all the things that make PRS guitars so sought after (hot looks, unbelievably smooth-playing necks, killer tone) but with a rocker's edge. So play as aggressive as you like - the PRS Nick Catanese SE solidbody electric guitar is ready to perform.

PRS Nick Catanese SE Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Extra-thick mahogany for extra tonal power
  • Dual EMG pickups for an aggressive edge
  • Down to basics with straightforward controls

Extra-thick mahogany for extra tonal power
The PRS Nick Catanese SE features a single-cutaway body style, made of extra-thick mahogany for equally thick tone. The thick mahogany body gives you an ultra-focused bass response, adding powerful emphasis to palm-muted chords and a powerful connection to your band's rhythm section. And that extra-thick mahogany also gives you an incredible amount of sustain, perfect for solos in any genre.

Dual EMG pickups for an aggressive edge
Nick the shredder requested the tried-and-true combination of EMG 81 and EMG 85 pickups, so you know this guitar is primed for rock. The screaming output of these two pickups is perfect for hard-edged rock styles and high-gain amplifiers, but their exceptional dynamic response gives these EMGs amazing clean tones too. If you like mixing a wide range of tones in one single performance, you'll love what you get out of these EMG humbucking pickups.

Down to basics with straightforward controls
Factor in the adjustable stoptail bridge for major sustain and stability, and finish it off with a streamlined Volume/Tone/3-way system, and you've got a down-to-the-basics axe with a hot-rodded look and feel with the Paul Reed Smith Nick Catanese SE. It's all what you need to rock with, built to the specs of one of the world's fastest and hardest-playing shredders.

Paul Reed Smith Nick Catanese SE Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Value-packed Nick Catanese signature model electric guitar
  • Color: Scarlett Red
  • Features a single-cut, extra-thick mahogany body for ample sustain and rich tone
  • Smooth-playing mahogany neck with an ebony fingerboard, with no fret markers for an intriguing appearance
  • 22 jumbo frets, the fret preference of Nick Catanese
  • TonePros adjustable stoptail bridge adds sustain and stability
  • EMG 81 and 85 humbucking pickups give you the tonal versatility you need for a hard-hitting performance
  • Gig bag included

Made for shredding, the PRS Nick Catanese SE gives you a hot-looking guitar, with a stripped-down vibe!

My Sales Engineer helped me place the order and advised when the guitar would be shipped. Once Sweetwater received the guitar, it was quickly set up and I received it the next day. The guitar was in tune and set up properly.

Meanest SE way Above Tremonti SE

by Eddy Jones from Miami, FL USA
July 17, 2012
Music Background: Amateur/Paid fulltime lead guitarist
I did not give it the 5.0 perfect review because i would definitely love it to have the 2 tone a 2 volume knobs. But just by the looks of this axe you get carried away in it. The scale length it's jus... read more [+]t perfect for lower tunning and jaw dropping monster riffs (25").
The tone and uniqueness of this piece definitely makes a name for itself. Packing heat with the Wylde monster set of pups. An EMG 81 on the bridge and EMG 85 on the neck. This guitar is definitely every rocker/metalheads out there that don't have the resources to purchase stuff going above and beyond $1K bucks. This is the best posible option under $1K for all you rockers! close [-]
