Let’s dispel a myth right now: maple guitars don't have to sound thin. The PRS SE A50 Angelus takes that stereotype, crumbles it up, and tosses it in the recycling bin. By mating stunning flamed maple back and sides with a solid spruce top, this instrument delivers a sonic punch that is shockingly three-dimensional. It’s got the brightness and snap you expect from maple, sure, but it’s wrapped in a blanket of warmth and depth that usually requires a second mortgage to acquire. This is a guitar that cuts through a dense mix like a hot knife through butter, yet still retains enough body to stand alone during a solo acoustic set. It’s bold, it’s beautiful, and it’s ready to make some noise.

We’ve all played acoustics that feel like wrestling a bear. The SE A50 Angelus, however, features the Angelus Cutaway body shape, which is as ergonomic as it is elegant. It sits comfortably against your ribs, inviting you to play for hours without fatigue. The neck features the PRS "Wide Fat" profile—substantial enough to anchor your hand for big open chords, yet carved perfectly for intricate fingerstyle work. And thanks to that generous cutaway, you can venture up the dusty end of the ebony fretboard without needing to be a contortionist. Whether you’re a heavy strummer or a delicate picker, this guitar responds to your touch with immediate gratification.
Under the hood lies the secret to this guitar's uncommon voice: the PRS hybrid “X”/Classical bracing. Think of it as the structural engineering that lets the top dance. It locks down the back and sides for stability while allowing the solid spruce top to vibrate freely, projecting volume that defies the guitar's size. When it’s time to take that tone to the stage, the PRS-Voiced Fishman Presys VT pickup system is waiting. With volume and tone controls discreetly mounted in the soundhole, there are no ugly plastic boxes drilled into the side of that gorgeous flamed maple. You get pure, organic, plugged-in tone that sounds like your guitar, just louder.


The PRS SE A50 Angelus is more than just a pretty face (though with those abalone birds and flamed maple, it is definitely that). It’s a serious tool for the serious musician. From the bone nut and saddle that transfer every ounce of string energy to the body, to the rock-solid ebony bridge, every component is chosen for performance. It’s reliable, resonant, and ready to go wherever the music takes you. And because PRS knows you’ll want to protect this beauty, it ships in a high-quality hardshell case, not a flimsy gig bag.
