What we say:

At A Glance:

The PRS SE A40E Ovangkol combines decades worth of experience and craftsmanship to create a modern style acoustic guitar that's inviting to play and sounds amazing. Whether you're playing acoustically or plugged in, the A40E always sounds great, thanks to the solid sitka spruce and ovangkol construction, PRS Hybrid “X” bracing and a Fishman GT1 pickup.

We love PRS' interpretation of the classic acoustic guitar and think this would make an excellent investment for a student guitarist or a reliable gigging guitar for a professional musician.

Features We Love:

Angelus Cutaway Body

The guitar is similar in size to a Grand Concert guitar, making it comfortable for most players and the Angelus cutaway allows for easy access to the higher frets. The medium-sized body brings a slight compression to the tone, making it ideal for both picking and fingerstyle playing.

PRS Hybrid “X” Bracing

PRS have evolved the traditional "X" design and incorporated a fan style bracing behind the bridge, this creates a round sweet tone that projects beautifully from the guitar.

Fishman GT1

Fishman have a reputation as one of the best pickup manufacturers in the world and their acoustic guitar pickups are especially loved. The Fishman GT1 series pickup offers exceptional transparency to present the true sound of your guitar to a speaker system. The system also features a volume and tone control discreetly tucked into the soundhole, so there are no ugly control panels screwed onto the body. It looks like a traditional acoustic with the control and convenience of an electro-acoustic, truly the best of both worlds.

Highlights:

  • Comfortable guitar for most players
  • Fishman pickup makes gigging easy

Customer reviews

Overall Rating 5/5 (9 reviews)

I now have 4 PRS guitars: 1: A PRS EG3 from 1992 - the best electric guitar I’ve ever had, and after being a pro gigging player for 60+ years, I’ve had them all (strats, teles, 335s, les Paul’s, big jazz boxes, etc etc) but none of them have been as reliable, comfortable, and rockable as this little gem! Oh, and the vibrato is - and always has been - faultless! 2: I bought a PRS SE twin-humbucker from Turnkey in 1996 for £300, and it’s wiped the stage with any Les Paul it’s been matched against. 3: I bought an SE TONARE 55E during Covid and it’s brilliant. 4: I’ve very recently been declared cancer-free after a bowel cancer operation and decided to celebrate my life extension with the purchase of a PRS SE A40E Angelus. Gorgeous! Thank you for your excellent service, past, present and, hopefully, future! Kind regards Paul Challenger

A very well made guitar with an even but full tone regardless of it not being a jumbo. The action is low and the neck is comfortable, making it very easy to play. Ideal for strumming as well as finger style. I don't do live work so I can't really give an opinion on the pickup, but I tried it through my studio monitors and it sounded fine. I would always use microphones for recording. The hard case takes the guitar with a snug fit and offers good protection. I wouldn't trust it too much when standing it upright as it's not very well balanced. My first PRS acoustic and I'm impressed by it!
