PRS introduces the 408 MT and 408 Standard.

These new instruments, offered in both maple top (MT) and all mahogany (Standard) configurations, bring the voicing of PRS Guitar’s Signature/408 pickups (previously featured on the Private Stock Signature and the Signature Limited Edition) to PRS’s Core line.

 

PRS 408 pickups were designed to extend the guitar’s tonal spectrum by narrowing the field of the bass pickup to increase its focus and widening the field of the treble pickup to increase its sound field (hence their asymmetric appearance). This pickup configuration is comprised of four coils and offers eight sounds.

Additional specification include a 25” scale length, 22-fret Pattern or Pattern Thin mahogany neck (rosewood neck option) with rosewood fretboard, bird inlays (moons optional), PRS Phase III tuners, PRS Tremolo (stoptail option), and nickel hardware with gold or hybrid option.
