Periphery man’s signature model gets a luxurious new look

PRS’s SE signature model for Periphery guitarist Mark Holcomb is set to get a limited-edition Whale Blue makeover for 2018.

Boasting a hand-rubbed finish, the model is inspired by Holcomb’s original USA Ltd Ed Custom 24, which was released back in 2015.

Elsewhere, the specs are as normal, with a 25.5” scale ebony fingerboard, Holcomb’s signature and coil-splittable Seymour Duncan humbuckers.

The new version is limited just to Europe, and is available on a first come first served basis. The price tag clocks in at the same as the regular Holcomb model, too, which is around £899.
