PRS Modern Eagle Faded WB 10 Top#2: Technical Review

The PRS Modern Eagle Faded WB 10 Top#2 is a US-made, solid-body electric guitar listed at 5290. Its specification combines a mahogany body and neck with a flamed maple top, a rosewood fingerboard, and an HSH pickup layout. The model is listed as available since November 2025, with item number 630602. These details define the instrument's construction and available controls, but they do not establish how it sounds, feels, or performs in use.

The product information gives the top as "10 top flamed maple." That label identifies the maple top specification; it should not be taken as a stated measurement or a description of sound. The finish is Faded Whale Blue. PRS supplies a case, while a gig bag is not included. The sales unit is one piece.

Body, neck, and fingerboard

The body is mahogany, and the set neck is also mahogany. The fingerboard is rosewood, with bird inlays and 22 frets. The scale length is 635 mm, also listed as 25 inches. Its fingerboard radius is 254 mm, or 10 inches, and the nut width is 42.9 mm, or 1.6875 inches.

Those measurements offer useful reference points when comparing the guitar with another instrument or checking compatibility with a player's preferences. They do not, by themselves, predict comfort or playability. The available data also does not specify the neck profile, fret dimensions, action, or setup, so those aspects cannot be assessed from the listed specifications.

The model is categorized as ST-style. That classification describes its general body-style category, rather than detailing its outline or dimensions. The listed materials and measurements are more specific: mahogany body and neck, maple top, rosewood fingerboard, 22 frets, and a 635 mm scale.

Pickup layout and controls

The HSH configuration consists of two PRS TCI humbuckers, positioned at the neck and bridge, plus a PRS NS-01 single-coil pickup in the middle. The control set includes one volume control and one tone control with a push-pull function. A five-way switch selects pickup combinations, while two mini toggle switches provide coil splitting.

This is a comparatively detailed control arrangement on paper. The five-way selector and two coil-split toggles create multiple ways to configure the pickups, while the push-pull tone control adds another switching function. However, the supplied specifications do not explain the exact wiring for each selector position, which coils are engaged in each split mode, or the role of the push-pull function. Those details would need confirmation from a wiring diagram or the instrument itself.

The pickup names and switching options identify the components and controls, but they are not enough to make reliable claims about output, tonal balance, noise, or the difference between settings. No listening results or customer reviews are available for this product, so this assessment stays with the documented hardware.

Tremolo, tuning hardware, and included items

The guitar uses a PRS Gen III patented tremolo, described in the general specification as PRS-style. It also has PRS Phase III locking machine heads and nickel hardware. Locking tuners and a tremolo are relevant parts of the tuning and string-changing system, but the listed information does not document tuning stability under use, tremolo range, or setup behavior.

The stated strings are PRS Signature Strings, gauged.010 to.046, identified as RL and associated with article number 478383. String gauge can be useful when planning a replacement set, although the data does not say whether changing gauges requires an adjustment. A case is included. No gig bag is included.

Specification summary and buying considerations

  • Dimensions: 635 mm scale, 42.9 mm nut width, 254 mm fingerboard radius, and 22 frets.
  • Electronics: Two PRS TCI humbuckers, one PRS NS-01 single-coil pickup, a five-way switch, two coil-split toggles, and a push-pull tone control.

The PRS Modern Eagle Faded WB 10 Top#2 is specified as a US-made instrument with a substantial set of switching options and clearly documented materials and dimensions. The listed price is 5290, and the available-since date is November 2025. Since no customer feedback or independent performance data is available here, a buyer should verify the control wiring, neck profile, setup, and playing response directly before making a decision. The specifications provide a solid basis for comparison, but they cannot substitute for an in-person test.

Scores by area

Where it shines, where it stumbles

What convinced me

  • Made in the USA with a mahogany body and neck, a flamed maple top, and a rosewood fingerboard.
  • Versatile pickup setup combines two PRS TCI humbuckers with a PRS NS-01 middle single-coil pickup.
  • Includes a PRS Gen III tremolo, Phase III locking tuners, coil-split switches, and a case.

What bugged me

  • The listed price of 5290 places it in a high-cost category.
  • The 22-fret layout and 25-inch scale may not suit players seeking a different neck or scale feel.

Is it the right one for you?

Good pick if

A strong fit for players seeking a USA-made PRS with premium woods, locking tuners, and a tremolo. Also suited to players who want humbucker and single-coil pickup options with coil splitting.

Look elsewhere if

Not a fit for buyers whose budget cannot accommodate the listed price. May not suit players who prefer a different scale length or fret count.
