PRS Tekton SVN Sprayer's Choice | Imperial Topaz/Metallic Orange

Introducing the PRS Tekton Family. An entirely new chapter for Paul Reed Smith.

Sprayer’s Choice is where the PRS finish team gets to put its own spin on a guitar, choosing colors and combinations outside the model’s standard options. This is one of the first Tekton SVN Sprayer’s Choice examples we’ve seen come to market, and the choice here was a good one. PRS paired an Imperial Topaz Figured Mango top with a metallic orange Mahogany back in place of the usual natural finish.

The Imperial Topaz brings out tight bands of amber and deep orange across the Mango. Turn it over and that same orange lights up in fine metallic flake along the sculpted heel and body contours. The two finishes match so well that you’d swear PRS designed Imperial Topaz with this back in mind.

The PRS Tekton SVN is built for players who want a seven-string with a slim body, easy upper-fret access, and a tight low end. The shallow violin carve and sculpted bolt-on heel keep it comfortable up high, while the extended 26.5" scale gives the low strings the tension they need. The satin Maple neck has PRS’s Modern “D” SVN profile, with a 16" radius Ebony fingerboard, 24 Jumbo stainless steel frets, offset dots, and blue Luminlay side dots.

A pair of PRS Stylus SVN humbuckers delivers tight lows and clear note separation through traditional amps and digital rigs. The three-way blade switch keeps pickup selection straightforward, and the push/pull tone control adds coil-split sounds. Smoked Black hardware, Phase III locking tuners, and a seven-string hardtail finish the build.
