PRS SE Mark Holcomb SVN Signature 7-string Electric Guitar - Holcomb Blue Burst

7-string Solidbody Electric Guitar with Mahogany Body, Maple Top, Maple Veneer, Maple Neck, Ebony Fingerboard, and 2 Humbucking Pickups - Holcomb Blue Burst

Boasting a pair of revamped Seymour Duncan pickups, the PRS SE Mark Holcomb SVN delivers the crushing high-gain tones, pristine cleans, and effortless playability that modern prog metal players have come to require from their 7-strings. This guitar starts off with the classic PRS tonewood combination of maple-capped mahogany, but the top of the SE Mark Holcomb SVN is upgraded even further with a violin carve and quilted maple veneer that’s sure to capture your audience’s attention. On the opposite end, Mark opted for a maple neck with a PRS Wide Thin neck profile: this slightly skinnier shape has a smooth, fast feel to facilitate all manner of fleet-fingered metal technicality. Finally, this iteration of the PRS SE Mark Holcomb SVN marks the introduction of Seymour Duncan’s Scarlet and Scourge humbucking pickups, specifically voiced to retain extreme clarity and maximize the tonal output of any modeling amplifier.

Redesigned Seymour Duncan pickups

The SE Mark Holcomb SVN introduces two all-new Seymour Duncan pickups to the PRS family: Mark’s signature Scarlet and Scourge humbuckers! These pickups were built from the ground up to excel with modeling amplifiers, offering a full tone with a slightly lower output than one might expect for a metal maestro like Mark. It all adds up to a humbucker with incredible note-to-note clarity, articulate highs, and tight lows that never feel muddy — essential qualities for guitarists who regularly dive into down-tuned depths, but who still require their instrument to cut through a full band mix when playing solos and high-register proggy melodic passages.

Specialized for the needs of Mark Holcomb

Periphery have helped set the bar for modern progressive metal, and Mark Holcomb SVN is a lot of the reason why. His style combines exotic note runs, intense jack-hammer riffing, and fluty single-note melodies, all of which requires a high specialized instrument. While Mark's Maryland-made Limited-edition signature model has been a huge hit, this SE makes his signature instrument attainable for a much wider audience.

Fast response

Every aspect of the SE Mark Holcomb SVN has been crafted to allow anunrestricted playing experience. The maple neck is capped with a beautiful piece of ebony that feels sleek under the fingers, while its 20-inch fretboard radius aids in wide bends and nimble string-to-string playing. The neck also boasts PRS' famed Wide Thin neck carve that is full enough to remain comfortable, but thin enough for you to fly up and down the frets.

Made beautiful, inside and out

The SE Mark Holcomb's rich-yet-balanced sound is a result of its timeless tonewoods combination: mahogany capped with a solid maple top, here with a stunning quilted maple veneer. The mahogany body gives you natural tonal warmth, which is offset perfectly by the brighter tone of its maple top. Together, these tonewoods give you an incredibly balanced sound. The set maple neck and 24-fret ebony fretboard offer smooth playability and a full two-octave range on every string.
