Used Paul Reed Smith SE NF3 Pearl White - Rosewood

The 2025 PRS SE NF3 Rosewood is a genre-defying bolt-on electric—featuring three Narrowfield pickups, a poplar body, and effortless playability for players who crave clarity, punch, and versatility.

This is the first SE model to feature PRS’s proprietary Narrowfield DD “S” pickups, delivering focused tone with hum-free performance across rock, blues, country, gospel, and jazz. Whether you're laying down rhythm tracks or soaring through lead lines, the SE NF3 offers a bold voice that’s hard to put down.

Construction & Feel

• Body: Solid poplar with a flat top—lightweight, resonant, and tonally balanced
• Neck: Bolt-on maple neck with PRS’s Wide Thin profile—fast and comfortable for modern playing styles
• Fretboard: Rosewood with a 10" radius and PRS bird inlays
• Scale Length: 25" with 22 frets for classic PRS feel and expressive bends
• Neck Joint: Scarfed bolt-on construction for strength and snap

Electronics & Tone

• Pickups: Three PRS Narrowfield DD “S” pickups—taller bobbins and mixed magnet/steel pole pieces for tight lows, musical highs, and focused mids
• Controls:
  • Master volume
  • Tone control
  • 5-way blade switch for versatile pickup combinations
• Sound Profile:

• Bridge: articulate highs and tight lows—great for rock and blues
• Middle: dimensional rhythm tones with clarity
• Neck: warm, round tones perfect for jazz and country
• Blended positions offer nuanced textures for fusion and gospel

Hardware & Reliability

• Bridge: PRS Patented Tremolo—smooth action with excellent tuning stability and expressive pitch control
• Tuners: PRS-designed tuners—lightweight and precise
• Nut: PRS synthetic nut for consistent intonation
• Hardware Finish: Nickel

Why It Stands Out

• First SE model with Narrowfield pickups—offering unique tone and hum-free performance
• Poplar body + bolt-on maple neck delivers snappy attack and balanced resonance
• Versatile 5-way switching makes it ideal for multi-genre players
• Effortless playability with PRS’s signature neck carve and tremolo system

The SE NF3 Rosewood is a fresh voice in the PRS lineup—perfect for players who want something different, expressive, and gig-ready. Whether you're demoing gear at Tone Tailors or tracking in your home studio, this guitar adapts to your style and elevates your sound.
