This guitar is the first signature model of Myles Kennedy, guitarist and singer of Alter Bridge, also known for his solo work and with Slash and the Conspirators. Kennedy brings blues and jazz to his rock style, and his signature reflects his characteristics. This guitar is able to go from classic twang sounds, ideal for 'chicken pickin', to modern rock sounds
.“This guitar captures the spirit of my favorite vintage instruments.
That said, since we developed this guitar, my period instruments rarely see the light of day.” - Myles Kennedy The Myles Kennedy Signature PRS features a Swamp Ash body, a 22-fret maple neck and a 25.5" scale, with a Maple fingerboard and two PRS Narrowfield MK pickups.These pickups have been carefully designed to offer the character of hambuckers but with the brilliance of single coils. The Narrowfield PRS provided the perfect starting point for this design, with their ability to produce full single coil sounds without noise. The pickups are combined with a 5-position selector switch and a push/pull tone control that works by reducing the high frequencies of the bridge
pickup.“Throughout his career, I have watched Myles alternate between humbucker and single coil sounds without sacrificing anything on either side. It took us months to adjust these pickups and I think they capture that balance that Myles has mastered beautifully.” - Paul Reed Smith
Other features include a plate-style steel bridge, vintage-style locking mechanics, a bone nut and the 'Geometric Owl' logo from Kennedy's solo album 'Ides of March', which represents wisdom and adaptability.
“I feel like we've been able to touch that elusive quality that makes you want to play with this guitar. It invites you to take it off the wall or case and make music.”
