Description

PRS Wood Library Modern Eagle V Quilted Maple – Santana Yellow

This Wood Library Modern Eagle V represents the absolute pinnacle of Paul Reed Smith’s relentless pursuit of tone and playability. Because this is a “Wood Library” build, it features a unique combination of tonewoods you won’t find on standard core models. The foundation is a Swamp Ash body, known for its resonant, musical highs and tight lows, paired with a truly stunning Quilted Maple top finished in the iconic Santana Yellow that gives the instrument a three-dimensional depth. The neck is equally luxurious, crafted from Flame Maple with a smooth Ebony fretboard, offering a snap and attack that cuts through any mix while feeling silky smooth under the hand thanks to the Pattern profile.

Electronically, this guitar is a “desert island” instrument, capable of covering almost any sonic territory you can imagine. It features the HSH (Humbucker-Single-Humbucker) configuration with TCI humbuckers and an NS-01 single-coil in the middle. But the magic lies in the switching: with push/pull tone controls and mini-toggles for coil-splitting, you have access to 17 distinct pickup combinations. Whether you are actually chasing the singing sustain of Carlos Santana or the glassy cleans of modern fusion players, this guitar adapts to your touch instantly. It is a modern classic that honors the PRS legacy of innovation while pushing the boundaries of what a single electric guitar can do.
