From Our Research Team:

The Signature Guitar of a Legendary Player!

The story of this guitar goes back to 1976, when Paul Reed Smith approached Carlos Santana with a hand-made instrument. From the first time you pick up the PRS Santana signature model electric guitar, you'll be sure that this it was built for a pro. Solid, but not too bulky, the Santana signature model adds natural sustain to every note you play. The "Pattern" neck carve feels extremely comfortable, and the smoothness of the bound rosewood fingerboard is an extra-nice touch. To top off this magnificent instrument, PRS gave it a gorgeous flame maple "10 Top" with meticulously inlaid purfling strips, plus gold hardware. Whether your looking at it or playing it, you're going to treasure your Santana signature model guitar.

PRS Santana Signature Model Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Solid mahogany topped with maple looks and sounds amazing
  • PRS V12 finish feels like nitro and protects like acrylic
  • Pattern profile neck feels and plays like a dream

Solid mahogany topped with maple looks and sounds amazing
To give the Santana signature model a rich yet balanced sound, PRS began by choosing the tried-and-true combination of mahogany topped with a select flame maple 10 Top. The Santana signature model's mahogany body gives you natural tonal warmth, which is offset perfectly by the brighter tone of its maple top. Together, these tonewoods give you an incredibly balanced sound.

PRS V12 finish feels like nitro and protects like acrylic
The PRS Santana signature model is finished in a stunning PRS V12 finish. If you're seeking vintage vibe with a sophisticated edge, your search ends here. Over a decade in the making, the PRS V12 finish blends the thin, resonance-enhancing characteristics of a nitro finish with the non-cracking reliability you expect from a modern acrylic finish. It has a classic feel all its own - it makes your axe feel like an well-worn instrument - one that will stay flawless-looking for years to come.

Pattern profile neck feels and plays like a dream
The Santana signature model is fitted with PRS's Pattern neck. A hallmark of PRS quality, neck shapes are, of course, critical to your playing experience. Perfected after years of prototyping, the Pattern neck is an updated Wide Fat PRS neck style based on designs Paul Reed Smith did in the '70s and '80s for Carlos Santana, Peter Frampton and Howard Leese of Heart. The Santana signature model's bound rosewood fingerboard is butter under your fingertips, and with exquisite mother-of-pearl and Paua Heart Bird inlays, no one will mistake your axe for anything other than a PRS.

PRS Santana Signature Model Solidbody Electric Guitar Features:
  • Ultra-tough V12 finish feels like the perfect balance between nitrous and polyurethane
  • Carved flame maple 10-top with inlaid purfling strips looks amazing
  • Bound rosewood fingerboard for extra comfort
  • Rosewood headstock veneer with inlaid eagle sets this PRS apart
  • Elegant gold hardware

The Paul Reed Smith Santana signature model solidbody electric guitar looks, sounds, and plays like dream!

The new Santana

by Joe Ungvarsky from Anna Maria Island, Florida
September 27, 2012
Music Background: Life long student W/many great teachers
I owned the Santana 1 for many years so I was a little skeptical of something new-R. The guitar is lighter, the neck and body shape feels totally different from the 1....it's almost "too good"...I was... read more [+] able to get the action really close without fretting out. When I plugged it into my new Blackstar* stack...well....I've never heard a guitar with such clarity/versatility, it's hard to explain....Sweetwater did the deal without any glitches, adds some trust to the net. close [-]
