PRS S2 Starla With Bigsby, Mahogany 2014

On November 27, 2019 /

No longer available in this form, the PRS S2 Starla with Bigsby was first introduced in 2008 as the Starla, the only PRS model using a Bigsby vibrato unit. Presently, the Starla fits in the PRS line at a higher price and with a hardtail. Using a simple construction style, the PRS S2 Starla with Bigsby combines a Mahogany neck with Mahogany body and a 22-fret Indian Rosewood fingerboard. The neck joint has a nicely asymmetrical heel that’s quite comfortable and helps with access to the upper frets. Position markers are the distinctive PRS birds.
