From Our Research Team:

A Solidbody Guitar with Natural Acoustic Sound!

The best of both worlds, the PRS P22 solidbody electric guitar gives you the classic tone of vintage-style humbuckers plus real acoustic sound. Inside the P22's chambered mahogany body, there's a modified PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system, which captures its natural acoustic sound. A dedicated volume control lets you blend this acoustic sound in with the P22's 53/10 pickups, or you can send it to a separate amplifier altogether. Now add a fantastic quilt maple 10 Top, and the PRS P22 electric guitar easy looks as good as it sounds!







PRS P22 Cambered Solidbody Guitar at a Glance:
  • Choice tonewoods protected with PRS's amazing V12 finish
  • PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system lets you blend in natural acoustic tone
  • Uncovered 53/10 pickups deliver sweetened humbucker sound

Select tonewoods protected with PRS's amazing V12 finish
To give the P22 a rich yet balanced sound, PRS began by choosing the tried-and-true combination of mahogany topped with a select quilt maple 10 Top. The P22's chambered mahogany body gives you natural tonal warmth, which really adds character to its acoustics. By nature, mahogany is a bit dark sounding, which is where the brighter tone of the maple top comes in. Together, these tonewoods give you an incredibly balanced sound. And thanks to PRS's ultra-durable V12 finish, the P22 feels and sounds like it's coated in well-worn nitro.

PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system lets you blend in natural acoustic tone
Redesigned to fit the solidbody P22, the PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system onboard this guitar gives you access to the natural acoustic sound of its chambered mahogany body. An control knob lets you blend the sound of this pickup in with the sound of the P22's humbuckers, adding a woodier quality and extra sustain to your tone. There's also a separate output next to the P22's main output that lets you send just the sound of the PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system to an acoustic amplifier. You're going to love the range of tones you can get out of this electric guitar!

Uncovered 53/10 pickups deliver sweetened humbucker sound
Speaking of tone, playing with even just the P22's 53/10 pickups is a wonderful experience. That's because PRS designed their 53/10 pickups to give you the sweetened sound you'd expect from real vintage humbuckers. They even went so far as to buy the same coil wire manufacturing machine that '50s-era guitar makers used to make some of the best sounding pickups in history - just so they could give guitars like the P22 the timeless tone you desire.

PRS P22 Cambered Solidbody Guitar Features:
  • A versatile chambered solidbody guitar that gives you both electric and acoustic guitar sound
  • Made from a chambered mahogany body with a quilt maple 10 Top, for incredible looks and tonal balance
  • Uncovered 53/10 pickups give you vintage humbucker sound with sweetened high end
  • Onboard PRS/LR Baggs piezo pickup system lets you blend natural acoustic sound into your tone
  • Discrete piezo output lets you send just your acoustic sound to a second amplifier
  • PRS's V12 finish feels like nitro and protects like acrylic
  • Hardshell case included

Get an astonishing range of electric tones from the PRS P22 chambered solidbody guitar!
