SE NF 53 - Black Doghair

PRS SE NF 53 – Black Doghair

The PRS SE NF 53 is a bold, modern take on a classic bolt-on design. With its swamp ash body, 25.5” scale length, and maple neck and fingerboard, this guitar delivers crisp snap, balanced tone, and lively resonance right out of the box. The flat top and lightweight feel make it comfortable for long sessions on stage or in the studio.

Equipped with a pair of PRS Narrowfield DD “S” pickups, the SE NF 53 offers dynamic clarity, focused punch, and zero hum. Designed with taller bobbins and extra internal steel for enhanced articulation, these pickups shine through clean or gain-heavy setups alike. A 3-way blade switch, master volume, and tone control give you straightforward versatility across genres.

Other premium features include a steel PRS plate-style bridge with brass barrel saddles for vintage-style twang and sustain, nickel hardware, and PRS-designed tuners with wing buttons for precise, stable tuning.
