PRS Tekton: Built to Respond with Precision, Clarity, and Modern Performance

The PRS Tekton is a modern electric guitar designed for players who demand precision, consistency, and a direct connection to their instrument. Built on the advanced Tekton platform, the Hardtail model combines refined ergonomics, contemporary specifications, and purpose-built electronics to deliver a focused, responsive, and highly versatile playing experience. Whether in the studio, on stage, or during extended practice sessions, the Tekton is engineered to perform with confidence and reliability.

Featuring a 25.5-inch scale length, stainless steel frets, a 16-inch fingerboard radius, and the Tekton family’s distinctive thin-yet-substantial neck carve, this guitar provides effortless playability across its ebony fingerboard. Its lightweight body, carefully sculpted contours, and enhanced upper-fret access offer exceptional comfort, making it ideal for demanding performances, technical playing styles, and long recording sessions.

At the heart of the PRS Tekton are PRS Stylus pickups, specifically developed for this family of instruments. Designed to deliver exceptional articulation, clarity, and musical character, these pickups maintain outstanding note definition in both clean and overdriven settings. Every humbucking and split-coil position is voiced to provide usable, expressive tones, whether connected to a traditional tube amplifier or a modern digital modeling system.

The PRS Hardtail bridge features individually adjustable saddles and a string-through-body design, promoting accurate intonation, enhanced resonance, and excellent sustain. Complementing this system are PRS Phase III Locking Tuners with Wing Buttons, combining modern locking technology with lightweight, vintage-inspired styling for reliable tuning stability and efficient tonal transfer.
