A Parlor Done PRS’s Way

Enjoy the aesthetic beauty, compact comfort, and marvelously mellow tonality of the PRS SE P20 Parlor acoustic-electric guitar. The all-mahogany — save for an ebony fingerboard — SE P20 Parlor exudes sonic richness and an enviably resonant voice that will treat your musical ideas to the tonal complexities they deserve. And despite its small footprint, its internal Hybrid X/Classical bracing pattern ensures that the SE P20 Parlor is heard across the room. An onboard PRS-voiced Fishman PreSys VT preamp enables amplified convenience with soundhole-mounted Volume and Tone controls to help streamline leveling for shows and studio projects alike. Rounded out with 18:1 nickel tuners and ample PRS showiness from head to toe, this SE P20 Parlor blends the best of parlor playability and sheer stylishness for all to enjoy.

Perfectly parlor-size body

When it comes to combining comfortably manageable sizing with premier projection, Sweetwater’s 6-string experts have found few parlors that deliver quite as flawlessly as the SE P20. Great for busking and shows of any size, tight-quarter studio tracking, road tripping, or strumming in any seat around the house, the small body and 24.72-inch scale length of the SE P20 Parlor land comfortably in your hands. Perfectly paired with PRS’s Hybrid X/Classical bracing pattern, this parlor exudes the best traits of both X-bracing and traditional fan bracing found on classical instruments for an ever-present projection that punches well above its weight.

Superb command and tone

All-mahogany construction makes the perfect recipe for deep, rich, and vintage musicality, which is exactly what you’ll hear upon your first strum of the SE P20 Parlor. Shaped with a Wide Fat neck profile and topped with a wondrously quick ebony fingerboard with an 11.81-inch radius, the SE P20 Parlor offers a chording feel that merges classic bulk with contemporary ease of movement. With 14 frets to the body and 20 frets total, the SE P20 Parlor will quickly become a go-to for blues, folk, bluegrass, and the like.

Fine detailing by PRS

Don’t be fooled by its size — this parlor flaunts its PRS fashion with pride. Aside from its gorgeous color and natural mahogany woodgrain, you’ll find exceptional design elements across the SE P20 Parlor, like crème and herringbone binding and purfling that help accent the body, rosette, and fingerboard. At the top, moody black-buttoned tuning machines designed by PRS with ultra-precise 18:1 gear ratios look fantastic and promise to keep your parlor sounding its best, no matter where you play. Finished off with an iconic adornment of Birds inlays down the fingerboard, this 6-string takes parlor style and sound to new heights!

PR-20 Great!
This guitar is one of my favorites, I have 16 now. This is in my front room and I play it every day. Don't let the size throw you, this thing sounds great, plugged or not. I also have a P-50 and it to sounds very good. I have Martin's Taylor and guild, and this sounds just as good.
Music background: 40+ years did solos and played with band.
Absolutely Beautiful
The PRS SE P20e is the easiest guitar I've ever played. It's not only beautiful, but has outstanding playability. The small stature make it a great travel guitar. I absolutely love this guitar.

The perfect parlor sized guitar. Perfect action, and supper easy to play. Great guitar for someone learning to play (easy on the fingers) or someone who is been playing for years. Amazing craftsmanship, clean flawless finish!

You don't even have to play guitar to know that PRS instruments are in a league of their own. With their exquisitely figured tops and premium appointments, each PRS is a playable work of art. But it goes way deeper than the surface. Every time Paul visits Sweetwater, we get a deeper look at his amazing instruments. We've even hosted several PRS Custom Shop events, complete with Paul's personal Wood Library! Whether they're his most affordable SE electric guitars, top-quality acoustics, or amps, it's always amazing to see what PRS comes up with. What's more, we keep a ton of PRS guitars in our amazing Guitar Showroom, so the staff at Sweetwater can get hands on with all of their latest models. We'd love to tell you all about them.
