Distinct triple-pickup configuration
The PRS SE NF3 sets itself apart with a unique trio of Narrowfield DD “S” pickups—a first for the SE Series. These pickups, designed with taller bobbins and a blend of magnet and steel pole pieces, deliver a tone that is both rich and articulate. Unlike traditional single coils or humbuckers, the Narrowfield DD “S” strikes a balance between clarity and power, allowing you to cut through a mix without sacrificing warmth or low-end punch. This configuration provides a tonal spectrum that spans everything from bell-like cleans to biting lead tones, all with a focused, harmonically complex edge. Use the bridge, neck, or blend all three positions via the five-way selector, and the SE NF3 responds with precision and musicality. It’s this innovative pickup design that makes the NF3 a standout workhorse guitar with a modern twist.
Responsive bolt-on construction
Built with a solid poplar body and a bolt-on maple neck, the SE NF3 offers a snappy, immediate tonal response ideal for players who value clarity and articulation. The bolt-on design contributes to the guitar’s dynamic feel and sharper attack, giving every note definition and presence. Paired with a maple fingerboard, the guitar leans toward a brighter tonal character that enhances fast runs, funky rhythms, and punchy chord work. The neck itself features PRS’s wide thin carve, striking the perfect balance between comfort and speed, while the 22-fret, 25-inch scale length keeps string tension feeling just right across genres. This neck construction encourages confident playability, inviting you to explore intricate jazz voicings, aggressive leads, or rhythmic grooves with ease.
Rock-solid tremolo and tuning stability
Equipped with PRS’s patented moulded tremolo system, the SE NF3 brings fluid pitch control and expressive bending into your hands. Add subtle vibrato or dive into bold tremolo work—the bridge design ensures tuning remains stable no matter your playing style. It works in harmony with the PRS-designed tuners, which are lightweight yet precise, keeping intonation tight and preventing tuning drift even through energetic sessions. Together, these components make the NF3 a reliable partner for live gigs, rehearsals, or recording environments. The tremolo system feels smooth and intuitive, giving you expressive control without any compromise in tuning.
Clean aesthetic with PRS character
Finished in a sleek Gun Metal Grey, the SE NF3 has a striking presence that still feels understated and professional. The flat top design complements the guitar’s bold curves, while PRS’s iconic bird inlays on the maple fretboard provide a visual flair that’s instantly recognisable. Even with its modern appointments, the NF3 retains the essence of classic PRS craftsmanship—from the signature “SE” headstock logo to the sculpted body contours. Every detail, including the satin neck finish and ergonomic design, is crafted for both comfort and style. This guitar not only delivers exceptional sound but also stands out as a visually refined and functional instrument for any playing scenario.
