A guitar with his own character
The Paul Reed Smith NF3 is a made in U.S. guitar with a flat shape korina body, a one piece maple "Pattern Regular" bolt-on neck, 3 PRS Narrowfield pickups and PRS Phase III Locking Tuners. Narrowfields use the same wire as 57/08s, but are narrower pole to pole and deeper front to back. The 25 1/4 inch scale length of this guitar lies between most PRS guitars which is 25 inch and most strats that feature 25.5 inch scale lengths. The finish on the PRS NF3 is PRS's V12 finish, which is halfway between nitrocellulose and acrylic. The Narrowfield pickups sounds fat, with body and no hum, a great mix of single coils and P90’s. This is not a strat copy but a guitar with his own character.
