This Sprayer’s Choice PRS Santana Retro is a true one-off build—finished outside of standard production specs and impossible to replicate. At its core is a beautifully figured flame maple top in a stunning Charcoal Blue finish, paired with a mahogany body. The back is where this guitar really surprises: it’s finished in a deep, rich blue that perfectly complements the top and gives the guitar a cohesive, boutique aesthetic you won’t find on any catalog Retro.
Built with PRS’s classic Santana Retro architecture—including the deeper body carve, original-style heel, and early-’80s headstock shape—this model blends historic PRS design with modern refinement. The one-piece mahogany neck features an East Indian rosewood fretboard and veneer, carved to the signature Santana Retro profile for comfort, sustain, and effortless playability.
Equipped with Santana bass and treble pickups, a Gen III PRS patented tremolo, and upgraded Smoked Black hardware, this Sprayer’s Choice build stands out both visually and sonically. It’s a collectible, artist-level instrument that delivers the feel, tone, and inspiration that define the Santana lineage, taken to the next level by the PRS paint team. Comes with the original hardshell case.
