Manufacturer's Description:
Paul Reed Smith elevates the traditional single-cut, bolt-on design with the introduction of the PRS NF 53. Drawing inspiration from a 1953 model in Paul's vintage guitar collection, the NF 53 is meticulously crafted from a resonant slab of swamp ash, featuring a sleek cutaway for enhanced comfort. The guitar boasts a maple Pattern 53-shaped neck that offers familiar playability, perfectly paired with a solidbody electric guitar's maple fingerboard, which has a 10-inch radius, 22 frets, and a scale length of 25.5 inches. The NF 53 produces a focused and powerful tone, thanks to its PRS Narrowfield DD pickups. Additionally, it is equipped with premium hardware, including a PRS plate-style bridge, barrel-style saddles, and vintage-style tuners. The iconic Birds fingerboard inlays further distinguish the NF 53 as a true PRS instrument. Combining modern features with thoughtful references to its vintage predecessors, the Paul Reed Smith NF 53 is poised to become another classic.
