The PRS Special 22 Semi Hollow "10 Top" Sprayer's Choice Wood Library is the kind of build that rarely comes around. Finished in a one of one custom Raspberry Purple Burst through PRS's Sprayer's Choice program, the master painter was given complete artistic freedom to create something entirely unique. This finish exists on this guitar and this guitar alone. That exclusivity is matched by its Wood Library pedigree, where select dealers gain access to hand chosen tonewoods, upgraded appointments, and unique specifications that bridge the gap between Core and Private Stock.
The Special 22 Semi Hollow is one of the most versatile guitars PRS has ever produced, combining the warmth and openness of a semi hollow body with the precision and playability the brand is known for. The quilted maple 10 Top comes alive beneath the custom finish. Turn the guitar over and you'll find a beautifully figured curly maple neck. Combined with the ebony fretboard and smoked black hardware, it has a level of refinement that's impossible to ignore.
Loaded with dual McCarty III TCI humbuckers and a PRS Narrowfield middle pickup, this guitar offers one of the broadest tonal palettes in the PRS lineup. Warm vintage inspired cleans, convincing single coil textures, articulate humbucker tones, and soaring lead sounds are all on tap, making this an incredibly expressive instrument that feels ready for anything.

What our collectors say.
"Blaise spent an hour with me in the gallery before I even thought about buying. No pressure, just passion. I ended up leaving with the perfect guitar."
"The whole experience felt completely different from any guitar store I've been to. It felt like a private gallery."
"I traded in two guitars towards a PRS Private Stock and the whole process was handled perfectly. Fast, fair, and totally transparent."
"Bought my first boutique guitar through The Vibrato Bar. The attention to detail from the setup, the packaging and the follow-up was all exceptional."
