About the PRS SE Development began when legendary guitarist Carlos Santana—who had been using PRS guitars as his main instruments since around 1982—proposed the idea of creating “a guitar that students could afford, yet still experience the high quality of PRS.” This led to the release of the first SE model, the “Santana SE,” in 2001. Consequently, the SE series is an abbreviation for “Student Edition” and “Santana Edition.” Following repeated upgrades and quality improvements, the SE series is no longer merely a budget version; it has evolved into a highly refined guitar praised as “a guitar that can actually be used in professional settings,” establishing itself as a series that expands the appeal and options of PRS Guitars. Production of the SE series began in Indonesia in 2019, resulting in even higher quality than before, and today, there are even collectors dedicated to the SE series. While there are differences in wood quality, finishes, and parts compared to PRS guitars made in the USA, PRS frequently dispatches engineers to provide direct guidance. As a result, the production line now follows the same manufacturing process as the USA factory.The woods and parts specifically prepared and developed for the PRS SE
