Open-Box PRS SE Chleo Herman Li Signature Electric Guitar - Condition 2 - Blemished Orchid Dusk 197881407087

Built for extreme speed and expressive control, the PRS SE Chleo channels Herman Li’s technical precision into a guitar that feels shockingly fast and effortlessly musical. Its contoured mahogany body topped with flame maple keeps the instrument lightweight and resonant, while a roasted maple neck reinforced with carbon fiber rods delivers the rigidity and stability high-velocity technique demands. The ebony fingerboard’s superflat 20" radius turns sweeping arpeggios, rapid string skips and wide vibrato into second nature. Visual touches like Eclipse Dragon inlays hint at the guitar’s virtuosic intent, rounding out a design shaped for players who push their technique and their tone to the edge.

Flame Maple Top and Contoured Mahogany Body for Balanced, Responsive Tone

The SE Chleo starts with a poplar-backed mahogany body carved for comfort and resonance, topped with a striking flame maple veneer that adds both snap and visual depth. This pairing creates a lively tonal profile with clear attack, focused mids and controlled low end that stays defined under gain. The body’s sculpted shape reduces weight and improves ergonomics for long sessions onstage or in the studio, allowing players to move freely without sacrificing tonal fullness.

Roasted Maple Neck and Ebony Fingerboard for Lightning-Fast Playability

Herman Li’s playing places enormous demands on neck design, and the SE Chleo reflects that with a slim roasted maple profile strengthened by carbon fiber rods for rock-solid stability. The ebony fingerboard’s 20" radius is exceptionally flat, giving advanced players the clearance and control needed for tap sequences, scalar bursts and wide, pitch-stable bends. Precise fretwork, a comfortable bolt-on heel and a slick roasted finish create a neck that feels immediately fast yet controlled, matching Li’s signature balance of agility and consistency.

Fishman Fluence Omniforce System Unlocks Three Voices and 13 Tonal Variations

A pair of Fishman Fluence Signature Series Herman Li Omniforce pickups delivers a full spectrum of tones with exceptional clarity. Three distinct voices—ranging from articulate single-coil sparkle to muscular humbucker weight to smooth, vocal-like lead tones—are accessed through push/pull volume and tone controls. Up to 13 total tonal options let players shift instantly between rhythm, lead and hybrid textures without pedal changes or guitar swaps. The noise-free Fluence architecture ensures tight, harmonically rich performance that responds dynamically to pick attack and phrasing.

Floyd Rose 1000 Tremolo and PRS Locking Nut for Tuning Stability

The Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo system, paired with a PRS-designed locking nut, allows deep dives, flutters and pitch manipulation while keeping the guitar firmly in tune. Fine tuners provide precise control after aggressive vibrato or tremolo work, ensuring the guitar’s pitch settles quickly and reliably. This hardware combination supports expressive tremolo technique without the compromises found on traditional vibrato systems, making it essential for players exploring Li-inspired phrasing or any tremolo-heavy style.

A Performance-Built Instrument for Technical Players

Every detail of the SE Chleo is designed for technical fluency, from the intuitive control layout and five-way switch to the rear-mounted 9V battery for quick Fluence power swaps. Smoked black hardware resists wear, and the included PRS gig bag protects the guitar in transit. For players developing advanced technique or performing high-energy sets, the SE Chleo offers the stability, tonal breadth and effortless playability needed to perform at full intensity. It stands as a powerful, modern expression of Herman Li’s guitar philosophy—fast, precise and built to inspire creative freedom.
