The PRS SE NF53 brings something fresh to the SE lineup, packing three PRS Narrowfield DD "S" pickups for a tone that's tight, punchy, and surprisingly versatile. Built with a poplar body and a bolt-on maple neck, it delivers plenty of snap and immediacy, while the maple fretboard adds extra clarity to every note. The Narrowfield design uses taller bobbins, more winds, and mixed magnet-and-steel pole pieces, giving a focused attack that cuts through without thinning out your lows. Whether you're playing rock, blues, country, jazz, or anything in between, the NF3 has the range to punch, cry, shimmer, or sing.
A Wide Thin neck profile makes fast runs easy, and the classic PRS Birds inlays complete the look. Finished in White Doghair, this 2026 model adds a striking visual twist to a guitar built for creativity and comfort. With a gig bag included, the SE NF53 is a fun, expressive workhorse that's hard to put down.
The SE NF53 stands out thanks to its trio of Narrowfield DD "S" pickups, offering a tonal identity that sits comfortably between single coils and humbuckers. The taller bobbins and increased windings help create a sound that is powerful yet controlled, resisting the brittleness that some single coils can drift into. This gives players the freedom to switch from articulate cleans to gritty overdrive without losing definition or presence.
With a poplar body and bolt-on maple neck, the NF53 responds quickly to your playing dynamics. Poplar keeps things lightweight and balanced, while the maple neck and fretboard add brightness and snap. The Wide Thin neck shape is ideal for players who like a fast, modern feel, offering comfortable access across all 22 frets. Combined with the guitar's 25" scale length, the result is a responsive, easy-playing instrument suited to both rhythm and lead work.
The SE NF53 includes PRS-designed tuners, a PRS nut, and an "NF53" truss rod cover to complete the visual identity. The White Doghair finish offers a distinctive look that stands apart from traditional colourways, while the iconic Birds inlays keep things unmistakably PRS. With a gig bag provided, the NF3 is ready for rehearsals, gigs, studio sessions, or all-day practice without missing a beat.
