PRS Guitars has returned Mark Holcomb’s six-string signature guitar to its Core series as a regular production model. The earlier Core signature model was offered as a limited release in 2015.
The updated guitar has a mango top, a maple neck with a 25.5-inch scale length and an ebony fretboard with a 20-inch radius. It uses Holcomb’s Seymour Duncan Scarlet and Scourge pickups and a five-way blade switch with coil-split settings.
The instrument ships with PRS Signature 10-52 strings in Drop Ctuning and satin black hardware. Available finishes include Charcoal Wraparound Burst, Holcomb Wraparound Burst, Holcomb Blue Wraparound Burst, Cobalt Smokeburst, Fire Smokeburst, Gray Black and Purple Mist Wraparound Burst.
Holcomb, a guitarist in Periphery, developed the model through his work touring, recording and writing with PRS instruments. Following the original limited Core release, he also collaborated with PRS on the SE Holcomb and seven-string SE Holcomb SVN models. The new Core guitar is part of PRS’s 2025 product launches.
