1999 PRS Carlos Santana II

This is one of Mr. Carlos Santana’s signature models and the successor to Santana I. This is a stunning example w/Carlos’a choice of an Amber finish over 1 of the best flame toped Carlos models we’ve ever encountered. With its Artist grade flame maple top, mahogany back & a mahogany neck was the royal combination. The fingerboard is made of Indian rosewood. The unique neck scale of 24.5 inches and the slightly thicker original neck shape, which was created based on feedback from Santana’s requests, are orthodox yet full of his originality. Gorgeous wood materials and Avalon inlay work used in various parts give it a gorgeous look. Featuring the classic combination of maple and mahogany, the Santana II upped the ante by incorporating highly flamed maple into the construction along with a flatter 11.5” radius and the wide fat neck. The II also introduced the Gibson inspired toggle switch, replacing the dual toggle switches found on the original. The pickups are original Santana Signature Zebra pickups. The mid-range of the pickups is superb, allowing for a variety of sounds, from a sound that fits well in an ensemble to a powerful sound with long sustain and presence, as only a PRS pickup can. For all of you neat freaks, this is 1 dead mint example ready for the pickiest collectors. She’s truly mint & comes w/its original leather covered hard case.
