Meet the New PRS SE 2026 Models
PRS continues to expand its SE lineup in 2026 with two new electric guitar models designed for players who value quality, consistency, and modern playability. The PRS SE Chleo and PRS SE DGT Standard bring fresh options to the PRS SE electric guitar range while staying true to PRS’s reputation for craftsmanship, tone, and reliability.
These 2026 models are aimed at guitarists who want professional features at a more accessible price point, whether for studio recording, live performance, or everyday practice.
PRS SE Chleo
The PRS SE Chleo introduces a modern approach to the PRS SE electric guitar lineup. It is designed for players who prefer clarity, balance, and a comfortable playing feel. The guitar delivers a clean and versatile tone that works well across many styles, from clean rhythm playing to lightly driven lead tones.
Playability is a key focus of the SE Chleo. The neck profile feels natural in the hand, making long playing sessions comfortable. Its tonal character is clear and responsive, allowing players to hear the finer details of their picking and chord work. This makes the PRS SE Chleo a strong choice for players who value expression, control, and modern clean tones.
PRS SE DGT Standard
The PRS SE DGT Standard is inspired by the long-standing collaboration between PRS and David Grissom, bringing his signature style into the SE electric guitar series. This model focuses on vintage-inspired tone combined with modern reliability.
The SE DGT Standard produces a warm, dynamic sound that responds well to changes in volume and tone controls. It suits blues, rock, and classic playing styles, while still offering enough versatility for modern setups. The guitar feels solid and familiar, making it a dependable option for players who appreciate traditional tones with a refined PRS character.
Why the PRS SE 2026 Models Stand Out
What makes the PRS SE Electric Guitar 2026 models stand out is their balance between performance and accessibility. Both the SE Chleo and SE DGT Standard are built with attention to detail, offering dependable quality without unnecessary complexity.
While the SE Chleo leans toward a modern, clean, and articulate sound, the SE DGT Standard focuses more on warmth and classic feel. This gives players clear options based on their playing style and tonal preference.
Designed to perform consistently in real-world situations, these guitars work well on stage, in the studio, or at home. For players looking to enter the PRS ecosystem or expand their collection, the 2026 SE lineup offers practical, well-rounded electric guitar choices that focus on tone, comfort, and reliability.
