PRS Tekton Electric Guitar Black Tourmaline Natural Neck
Product Description
The PRS Tekton Hardtail Electric Guitar combines precision engineering, modern playability and exceptional tonal versatility in a purpose-built instrument designed for today's demanding guitarists. Featuring a stunning figured mango top, mahogany body, maple neck and ebony fingerboard, the Tekton delivers outstanding responsiveness, comfort and performance across a wide range of musical styles.
Designed around a 25.5-inch scale length, 24 stainless steel jumbo frets and a 16-inch fingerboard radius, the Tekton offers effortless playability for everything from intricate lead passages to powerful rhythm playing. Its Modern D neck profile provides a comfortable balance of substance and speed, while the satin nitrocellulose neck finish ensures a smooth, natural playing feel. Sculpted body contours and enhanced upper-fret access make the Tekton equally comfortable during extended practice sessions, recording and live performance.
At the heart of the instrument are PRS Stylus humbuckers, developed specifically for the Tekton family. Engineered for exceptional clarity, articulation and dynamic response, these pickups deliver outstanding note definition across clean, crunch and high-gain sounds. Whether paired with traditional valve amplifiers or modern digital modelling systems, the Stylus pickups maintain their focus and character. A push/pull tone control provides coil-splitting functionality, expanding the guitar's tonal range with articulate single-coil-style sounds.
The PRS Hardtail bridge features individual saddles for precise intonation and a string-through-body design that enhances resonance and sustain. Combined with PRS Phase III locking tuners with Wing Buttons, the Tekton offers excellent tuning stability and dependable performance. The bolt-on maple neck further contributes to the guitar's immediate attack and responsive character.
Premium appointments include a high-gloss nitrocellulose body finish, satin-finished neck, smoked black hardware, offset fingerboard inlays and blue Luminlay side dots for improved visibility on dark stages. Every detail reflects PRS's commitment to combining refined craftsmanship with contemporary guitar design.
Supplied with a premium gig bag, the PRS Tekton Hardtail is an exceptional choice for players seeking precision, versatility and uncompromising modern performance.
