Paul Reed Smith SE NF3 Ice Blue Metallic

Paul Reed Smith SE NF3 Ice Blue Metallic
Serial Number: H089682
Weight: 7.26 lbs.

The PRS SE NF3 in Ice Blue Metallic stands apart in the SE lineup by being the first SE model built around three PRS Narrowfield pickups, a configuration previously reserved for PRS's higher-end guitars. That trio of Narrowfield DD "S" pickups uses taller bobbins with extra metal between the magnets, splitting the difference between single-coil clarity and humbucker output for a focused, articulate voice that stays clear through high-gain and clean tones alike. The solidbody poplar construction is finished in high-gloss polyurethane Ice Blue Metallic, delivering a genuinely versatile foundation at 7.26 lbs.

The bolt-on maple neck carries PRS's Wide Thin profile (13/16" at the half fret, 57/64" at the 12 1/2 fret) for fast, low-effort playability, topped with a rosewood fretboard, PRS's signature bird inlays, and a 10" radius across 22 frets and a 25" scale length. A 1 11/16" PRS nut leads to PRS-designed tuners with wing buttons in nickel, and PRS's patented tremolo bridge delivers smooth, stable pitch bends and flutter without the tuning drift lesser trems are prone to.

Electrically, the three Narrowfield DD "S" pickups are wired to master volume and tone controls with a 5-way blade selector, opening up single-coil-style quack and shimmer alongside fuller humbucker-adjacent tones from one guitar — genuinely useful range for players who jump between styles in a single set. Whether you're a gigging player who needs one guitar to cover rock, blues, country, and jazz tones without swapping instruments, a tone-chaser curious about PRS's Narrowfield voicing, or a player upgrading from a standard single-humbucker or dual-humbucker SE, the NF3 covers ground most guitars in this price range can't. This Paul Reed Smith SE NF3 Ice Blue Metallic (Serial #H089682) includes a PRS SE gigbag. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized PRS dealer.
