PRS Tekton T Black Tourmaline

Weight: 6.6 lbs 

DESCRIPTION

The PRS Tekton T (tremolo) is a modern performance instrument born from listening to players and years of experience. From its unique body shape, shallow violin carve, and sculpted neck heel to its 25.5” scale length, stainless steel frets, and 16” fretboard radius, the Tekton T was engineered to feel fast, comfortable, and familiar from the first note. The addition of allnew purpose-built pickups and electronics make the Tekton T equally suited for tube amps and digital rigs. 

Starting with a mango top and subtly offset body, the Tekton T is instantly recognizable as PRS while grabbing attention with its fresh, modern look. The thin maple neck and wider string spacing allow guitarists to play with confidence and comfort. 

At the heart of the Tekton T are PRS Stylus pickups, developed specifically for this family of guitars. Voiced for clarity, articulation, and character, Stylus pickups deliver aggressive tones without sacrificing note definition. While not “flat-response” pickups, they do have a flatter output than many other humbuckers to keep some character while catering more to digital rigs. So whether running into a traditional tube amplifier or a modern digital rig, Stylus pickups provide responsiveness and dynamic range. Split or full humbucking, every position was designed to be equally useful on stage, in the studio, or at home. 

Anchoring this guitar is the PRS two-point tremolo, which provides expressive performance possibilities, so you can shape every note while maintaining tuning stability and reliability. Combined with the Tekton’s lightweight body, comfortable contours, and modern appointments, the result is an instrument equally suited for technical passages, soaring lead work, and everything in between. 

Named after the ancient Greek word for artisan or builder, Tekton reflects the philosophy behind this guitar: combining thoughtful craftsmanship with modern performance. Built for players who are constantly refining their technique, expanding their sound, and looking ahead to what’s next.
