The PRS SE NF3 Maple Fretboard Guitar is the kind of instrument that makes you lose track of time. At its heart are three PRS Narrowfield DD “S” pickups, which give the guitar a focused, punchy, and remarkably flexible voice.
The combination of a poplar body, bolt-on maple neck, maple fretboard, and PRS patented tremolo results in a versatile electric guitar that feels ready for anything. Whether you play rock, blues, gospel, country, or jazz, this guitar refuses to be boxed in.
Focused Tone, Big Range
Plenty of guitars promise versatility, but this one delivers. The PRS SE NF3 Maple combines the snap, body, and bite players crave from different pickup styles into one cohesive, musical instrument. It barks when you dig in, shimmers when you back off, and stays articulate no matter how you play.
3 Narrowfield DD “S” pickups: This is the first time PRS has brought Narrowfield pickups to the SE Series, and they are the heart of this guitar's sound. They offer a more focused tone than typical single-coils, ensuring chords stay clear and lead lines cut through the mix.
"Deep Dish" design for a more powerful voice: These pickups feature taller bobbins to fit more winds and extra metal pieces between the magnets. This design creates a more focused, powerful tone with plenty of punch and presence, eliminating the thin, brittle high-end found in other pickups.
5-way blade switch for fast tonal changes: A simple layout with a Volume knob, a Tone knob, and a 5-way blade switch makes it easy to shift from searing bridge tones to shimmering in-between sounds or warm neck textures. It’s a flexible setup that works equally well for clean, layered parts and overdriven leads.
Built for Comfortable, Confident Playing
Some guitars sound good but fight you every step of the way. The SE NF3 Maple is not interested in being difficult. Its neck shape, scale length, and fretboard feel all work together to make it quick, comfortable, and easy to keep coming back to. This is the sort of workhorse that makes practice feel less like homework.
22-Fret Bolt-On Maple Neck: The bolt-on maple neck provides a snappy, direct response that feels lively under your hands. PRS uses a scarfed construction for a stable build that retains the guitar's slinky character, delivering classic clarity and punch.
Wide Thin Neck Profile and 10” Radius: The Wide Thin neck profile is slim enough for lightning-fast licks but substantial enough for digging into chords. Paired with a 10” maple fretboard radius, you get a surface that feels equally at home with open chords, wild bends, and intricate lead runs.
25” Scale for a Balanced Feel: The 25” scale length is a happy medium. It has enough tension to keep notes articulate, but not so much that string bends become a wrestling match. This perfect balance makes the SE NF3 Maple incredibly responsive without feeling stubborn.
PRS Style with Real-World Utility
This guitar has the kind of look that turns heads without shouting across the room. It’s sleek, clean, and unmistakably PRS, but it also comes with the practical details that matter when you’re gigging, rehearsing, recording, or hauling gear across town in one trip because optimism got the better of you.
Poplar Body with PRS Patented Tremolo: The poplar body keeps your tone balanced and clear, while the PRS patented tremolo delivers everything from a subtle shimmer to a full-on dive-bomb when the moment strikes. It's built for reliability, comfort, and rock-solid tuning stability.
Maple Fretboard with Classic PRS Bird Inlays: The maple fretboard not only looks sharp but adds a bright, snappy attack to your notes. And, of course, the signature bird inlays are pure PRS — a classic touch that proves details make the difference.
Gig Bag Included: No need to shop for a case on day one. The included gig bag is a practical touch that makes life easier from the get-go, protecting your investment whether you're heading to a lesson, a rehearsal, or the stage.
A Workhorse That’s All Class
The PRS SE NF3 Maple Fretboard Guitar hits that sweet spot every player is looking for. It's a polished performer that isn't too precious to play, a chameleon that avoids being bland, and a comfortable companion that feels anything but generic. If you're chasing a do-it-all electric with the unique voice of Narrowfield pickups, silky-smooth playability, and that unmistakable PRS personality, the NF3 isn't just a candidate — it’s a contender.
