The Tekton SVN is the 7-string in PRS's new Tekton family, with a 26.5" scale for a tighter, clearer low B. It keeps the Tekton feel: a thin Modern "D" SVN neck, 16" radius, stainless steel frets and the same body shape with a figured mango top.
PRS Stylus SVN pickups are voiced for articulation, so chords on the low strings stay separated under high gain and they behave well into a modeller as well as a tube amp. The push/pull tone splits both coils.
The nut is 1 29/32" wide and the neck 2 5/8" at the body. It's a string-through 7-string hardtail with PRS Phase III locking tuners, strung 10-59 in B standard.
Bloodstone Red and Fuchsia Aura come with a black satin neck; Slate Blue, Imperial Topaz, Black Tourmaline and Violet Tourmaline have a natural maple neck. For six strings on the same platform, the Tekton is the hardtail.
