PRS Modern Eagle V - Faded Purple / Natural Back

The PRS Modern Eagle V has always been a platform for pushing the boundaries of tone, and this Core Series version is no exception. Finished in a rich, radiant Faded Purple over a crushing Curly Maple top, paired with a natural back, this guitar brings show-stopping looks with unmatched tonal flexibility.

Underneath its luxurious top is a powerhouse electronics setup: a pair of TCI humbuckers with a finely-voiced NS-01 single-coil in the middle position. Add in a 5-way blade switch, two mini-toggle switches, and coil-splitting capabilities, and you've got a full spectrum of tones—from glassy cleans to full-throttle growl, and everything in between.

The Modern Eagle V is a tone chameleon—perfect for players who need one guitar that can cover everything. Whether you’re tracking in the studio, dialing in stage tones, or exploring new soundscapes, this guitar responds with nuance and power.

Its Faded Purple finish over deeply figured curly maple gives it serious visual impact, while the natural mahogany back adds a touch of understated elegance. It’s a player’s instrument, a collector’s piece, and a sonic weapon all in one.
