Finish and body

This guitar is finished in Hot Pink with a black satin neck. The solid alder body is finished in high-gloss nitro and has a shallow violin carve. The body has an exaggerated scoop for upper-fret access and a belly carve. The smoked black hardware sits well against the Hot Pink finish.

Stylus pickups

The PRS Stylus pickups were developed for the Tekton family. They use Alnico 5 magnets and have a flatter, lower output than many high-gain humbuckers (around 13k treble and 11k bass DC resistance), which keeps notes clear under gain and makes them work well with both tube amps and digital modelers. The push/pull tone control splits the coils, giving six usable sounds from the 3-way blade switch.

Bridge and tuning

The Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo has a 16″ radius to match the fretboard and is made for dive bombs, flutters and wide vibrato while keeping the guitar in tune. A locking nut and PRS Phase III non-locking tuners complete the setup.

Neck and playability

The bolt-on maple neck has hormigo strength rods for stability and resonance, an ebony fretboard with offset dot inlays and blue Luminlay side dots. String spacing matches the PRS Silver Sky and Fiore, slightly wider than traditional PRS spacing. The body has an exaggerated scoop for upper-fret access and a belly carve.

Is the Tekton Floyd the right guitar for you?

This model suits guitarists who want a PRS with a locking tremolo for expressive whammy bar playing. It is a good fit if you play rock, metal or other modern styles and like a thin neck with a flat fretboard radius. The Stylus pickups work with both tube amps and digital modelers, so the guitar fits a traditional amp setup as well as a modern direct-recording rig.

A double-locking tremolo clamps the strings at the nut and at the bridge. String changes and tuning therefore need a little more care than on a fixed bridge. If you are new to Floyd Rose systems, ask our team for advice. We also offer guitar repairs, so setup questions can be handled in-house.
