Paul Reed Smith S2 Vela Black Limba Satin Limited Natural
Paul Reed Smith S2 Vela Black Limba Satin Limited Natural
Serial Number: S2088963 (1 of 200)
Weight: 5.64 lbs.
This PRS S2 Vela Black Limba Satin Limited Natural is one of just 200 built by Paul Reed Smith in 2026, pairing the offset S2 Vela platform with a rarely seen tonewood: a solid Black Limba body finished in thin, resonant satin nitro that shows off the wood's striking natural grain. At a featherweight 5.64 lbs., this limited-edition Vela is the kind of grab-it-every-time guitar that lives on the couch, in the studio, and on stage — and with only 200 in existence, it's a genuinely rare bird in the S2 lineup.
The maple neck sports PRS's popular Pattern Regular carve (27/32" at the 1/2 fret, 59/64" at the 12 1/2 fret) with a fast satin nitro finish, joined to the body with classic PRS set-neck construction. A rosewood fretboard with signature bird inlays, 10" radius, 22 frets of PRS standard wire, 25" scale length, and 1 21/32" nut delivers that familiar, effortless PRS feel that works for everything from indie jangle to blues-rock grind. PRS Phase III locking tuners with wing buttons, a plate-style bridge, nickel hardware, and a 3-ply black/white/black pickguard complete the vintage-meets-modern package.
The pickup pairing is where the Vela gets its personality: a PRS Narrowfield in the neck serves up thick, hum-free single-coil-style tones, while the DS-01 bridge pickup brings snappy, dynamic twang and grit, with a push/pull tone control for coil-split flexibility and a 3-way toggle to move between them. It's a wide tonal spread that punches far above its price point. This limited S2 Vela Black Limba (Serial #S2088963, 1 of 200 made in 2026) includes a PRS premium gig bag.
