  This Studio features a gorgeous 10-Top with Cobalt Smokeburst finish, and Pattern neck carve.
  The PRS Studio model is a modern take on a traditional single-single-hum guitar. With PRS’s proprietary Narrowfield pickups in the middle and bass positions and a 58/15 LT humbucking treble pickup, the PRS Studio offers punchy single-coils, vintage scooped tones, and the chunky kick of a treble humbucker screaming in one instrument. This whole new scope of sounds (that are only possible with a three-pickup guitar) are easily accessible in the Studio model thanks to the push/pull tone control and 5-way blade switch. With seven combinations in all, the PRS Studio covers classic tones but maintains a unique voice making it a perfect “desert island” guitar.

The Emperor Standard Guitar is Fodera's double cutaway, bolt-on offering, combining the classic sparkle and chime of 60’s and 70’s blues and surf sounds, with added tonal flexibility for today's player. The Emperor Standard features a premium, hand-selected Alder body, Indian Rosewood fingerboard, 3-piece Hard Rock Maple neck, and angled-back headstock. The Emperor Standard Guitar comes with a custom set of Seymour Duncan Single-Coil pickups providing the authentic chime, sparkle, and feel that only vintage single coil pickups deliver. Unique to the Emperor Standard Guitar is a pickup configuration that allows for a wider variety of tonal options compared to traditional single-coil-style instruments. In addition to the traditional 5-way pickup selector, a bridge pickup switch has been provided to allow the bridge pickup to be engaged with any pickup selector position.
(Interesting fact: we recently lent this actual Emperor Standard to Mark Lettieri from Snarky Puppy for a video shoot)
