PRS NF 53 | Black Doghair

The PRS NF 53 delivers vintage-inspired tone with modern refinement, making it a serious contender for any guitarist chasing clarity, punch, and versatility. Designed with a swamp ash body and a bolt-on maple neck, this guitar offers a snappy response and smooth playability across its 22-fret, 25.5” scale length. At the heart of the NF 53 are PRS’s Narrowfield DD (Deep Dish) pickups—built for extra power and focus without the hum. Paired with a 3-way switch and intuitive volume and tone controls, this guitar is capable of everything from sparkling cleans to thick, articulate overdrive. A steel plate-style bridge, bone nut, and Phase III tuners ensure rock-solid tuning stability and sustain. Classic feel, modern innovation—the PRS NF 53 is a workhorse that will keep you coming back for more.
