Returns Simplified.The PRS Charcoal Phoenix Limited Edition electric guitar represents Paul Reed Smith’s personal vision as both a luthier and a player. Designed to celebrate PRS Guitars’ 40th Anniversary, this exclusive model is limited to only 150 pieces worldwide. Featuring a Private Stock-grade figured maple top in a striking charcoal microburst finish, paired with a deep crimson “Fat Back” mahogany body, the Charcoal Phoenix delivers a bold visual and tonal statement. Every element, from its meticulously selected woods to its refined electronics, reflects Paul’s ongoing pursuit of sonic excellence.
At the heart of the Charcoal Phoenix is its unique wood combination. The chaltecoco neck offers a sturdy, resonant foundation, while the ziricote fingerboard adds warmth and complexity to the guitar’s tonal character. The “Fat Back” mahogany body enhances sustain, delivering a thick, harmonically rich sound. The violin-carved top not only provides striking aesthetics but also contributes to a balanced tonal response, ensuring that every note rings with clarity and depth.
Equipped with the newly updated PRS TCI pickups for 2025, the Charcoal Phoenix offers an extraordinary tonal range. These American Alnico-magnet humbuckers feature refined winding, wiring, and electronic specifications, delivering a clear, articulate voice suited for both clean and high-gain applications. The two EQ mini-toggle switches function as high-pass filters, tightening the low end and enhancing the treble response for added clarity and musicality. Whether you need smooth sustain or cutting lead tones, the Charcoal Phoenix responds with precision.
The PRS stoptail bridge, crafted with brass inserts and steel studs, maximizes resonance and tuning stability while enhancing sustain. PRS Phase III non-locking tuners with Wing buttons provide reliable tuning accuracy and a touch of vintage aesthetic. A bone nut and high-gloss nitrocellulose finish complete the package, ensuring that this limited-edition instrument performs flawlessly under any conditions.
The Charcoal Phoenix is as visually captivating as it is sonically impressive. Ripple abalone “Old School” bird inlays adorn the ziricote fingerboard, while the headstock features a pre-factory eagle logo in rippled abalone. The deep crimson back creates a striking contrast against the figured maple top, evoking the image of a phoenix rising from the ashes. Each guitar includes a hand-signed 40th Anniversary certificate, further emphasizing its exclusivity and collectibility.
Designed for those who demand the highest level of craftsmanship and sonic refinement, the PRS Charcoal Phoenix Limited Edition is a true collector’s piece and a professional-grade instrument. With only 150 units available worldwide, this guitar is a rare opportunity to own a piece of PRS history. Whether on stage or in the studio, the Charcoal Phoenix inspires with its breathtaking looks, exceptional tone, and unmatched playability.
