Paul Reed Smith SE Chleo Charcoal Purple Busrt

The Herman Li Signature: Built for Speed, Power, and Versatility

The Paul Reed Smith SE Chleo is the signature model for Herman Li, lead guitarist of DragonForce. Based on the exclusive 2025 PRS Chleo Limited Edition, this guitar is specifically designed for the modern metal guitarist, prioritizing speed, effortless playability, and an unprecedented range of tonal options at an accessible price point.

✨ Key Features for High-Velocity Performance

• Custom Pickup System: The guitar is equipped with the same Fishman Fluence Signature Series Omniforce Herman Li pickups as the high-end Core model. These active, no-hum pickups feature three distinct voices per pickup, providing a massive tonal palette.

• 13 Unique Tonal Combinations: The versatile switching system—a 5-Way Blade Switch paired with Push/Pull Volume and Push/Pull Tone controls—allows you to quickly access up to 13 different sounds, ranging from fat, aggressive humbucker rhythm tones to crystal-clear single-coil sounds, and everything in between.

• Hyper-Speed Neck Design: Built for ultimate shredding:

  • "Chleo" Neck Shape: A very thin, fast-playing neck profile.

  • 20” Fretboard Radius: Flatter than most necks, making big bends easy and preventing fretting out during extreme play.

  • 24 Frets on Ebony: A dark, slick ebony fretboard with a 25.5" scale length.

  • Reinforced Construction: The maple neck features multi-ply construction and Carbon Fiber strength rods for ultimate rigidity, which enhances sustain.

• Floyd Rose 1000 Tremolo: Essential for the modern metal player, the Floyd Rose 1000 Tremolo system with a PRS Locking Nut ensures perfect tuning stability, even through the heaviest dive-bombs and pitch manipulation. The hardware is finished in striking Smoked Black.

• Visually Striking Aesthetics: The guitar features a beautiful Maple top with a Flame Maple Veneer on a Mahogany back, and is visually set apart by its unique "Eclipse Dragon" inlays on the fretboard.
