PRS S2 Vela Electric Guitar - Space Blue | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The PRS S2 Vela electric guitar combines vintage-inspired offset styling with modern reliability in a stunning Space Blue finish. This distinctive solid-body guitar features USA-made pickups including a unique Narrowfield mini humbucker and coil-tap functionality, making it perfect for players seeking classic tones with contemporary versatility.
Product Overview
The S2 Vela showcases PRS's innovative offset body design crafted from premium mahogany, creating a visually striking instrument that balances classic charm with bold contemporary aesthetics. The gorgeous Space Blue gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only provides stunning visual appeal but also enhances the guitar's natural resonance and aging characteristics.
Built around a mahogany set-neck construction with Pattern Regular profile, this guitar offers comfortable playability across its 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. The elegant bird inlays and 10-inch radius provide both visual sophistication and ergonomic comfort, while the 25-inch scale length delivers excellent string tension and note clarity.
The heart of the Vela's unique character lies in its distinctive pickup configuration featuring a PRS DS-01 humbucker at the bridge and a Narrowfield mini humbucker at the neck. The push-pull coil-tap tone control unlocks additional single-coil voicings, providing an extensive palette of tones from vintage jangle to modern drive. The PRS steel plate bridge with brass saddles ensures precise intonation and exceptional sustain.

Key Features
Unique Pickup Configuration
The DS-01 bridge humbucker paired with the Narrowfield mini humbucker creates a distinctive tonal palette unlike traditional dual-humbucker guitars. The Narrowfield pickup delivers classic mini humbucker clarity and bite, while the DS-01 provides full-bodied bridge tones with excellent note definition.
Coil-Tap Versatility
The push-pull tone control activates coil-tap functionality, splitting both pickups to reveal authentic single-coil tones. This feature dramatically expands the guitar's sonic range, offering everything from sparkling clean tones to gritty blues overdrive in a single instrument.
Offset Body Design
The distinctive offset mahogany body shape provides superior upper-fret access while creating a visually striking silhouette that sets this guitar apart from traditional designs. The carefully balanced proportions ensure comfortable playing whether seated or standing.
PRS Steel Plate Bridge System
The steel plate bridge with brass saddles delivers exceptional sustain and precise intonation adjustment. This hardtail design provides rock-solid tuning stability while enhancing the guitar's natural resonance and harmonic content.
