Item Description
ABSENTEE BIDDING AVAILABLE - Place your bid and it will be included in the bidding at our Live Event on April 1st.
YOU could be the proud owner of this SE Alex Lifeson Signature Acoustic signed by Paul Reed Smith! Alex Lifeson, the guitarist from Rush, designed this acoustic guitar with PRS to be thin so he could play it while standing, not sitting, in a live setting.
PLUS, a private tour of the Paul Reed Smith (PRS) factory from a Summit Dad who has worked there for 20+ years. You can expect to get a firsthand look at their processes, instruments, and amplifiers from raw wood or blank chassis form to finished guitar or amplifier.
About the guitar:
Carrying over unique appointments from the Private Stock Alex Lifeson acoustic, the SE features a thinner body depth than PRS’s standard Angelus model. A “Birds in Flight” inlay adorns the rosewood fretboard and pairs nicely with the unique back and sides crafted from figured Dao wood. Players will find a noticeably warm and resonate tone in the SE Alex Lifeson - even when amplified! An undersaddle pickup with both volume and tone knobs will give you all the control you need from the stage.
"I was very pleased when PRS presented me with my SE Angelus acoustic, a beautiful guitar of stunning quality. It was in response to the challenge of building a guitar that shared the integrity and attention to detail that the Alex Lifeson Private Stock Angelus possesses in a package more broadly accessible. The SE Alex Lifeson Thinline is that model. Carefully selected materials, expert craftsmanship and a smart approach to concept resulted in a guitar that is beautiful to look at and rewarding to play." – Alex Lifeson
Located in Stevensville, Maryland, Paul Reed Smith Guitars is one of the world’s premier guitar and amplifier manufacturers. Since their humble beginning in 1985, PRS Guitars has always strived to create the highest quality instruments possible.
