PRS S2 Mira 594 Platinum Metallic

PRS S2 Mira 594 Platinum Metallic review

The PRS S2 Mira 594 Platinum Metallic is a USA-made electric guitar with a mahogany body and neck, a rosewood fingerboard, and two 58/15 LT humbuckers. Its listed price is 2080, with no currency specified in the supplied details. The model has been available since October 2025. The Platinum Metallic finish gives it a distinctive look, while its control layout offers options for shaping the pickup sound without a complicated interface.

One owner had played the guitar continuously for a month and praised the finish, comfort, and range of tones. A second buyer, new to PRS, reported carefully inspecting the instrument and finding the finish in excellent condition. Those accounts point to a strong first impression, though they also mention setup details worth checking when the guitar arrives.

Body, neck, and setup

The body and set-in neck are both mahogany. There is no separate top listed. The rosewood fingerboard has bird inlays, 22 frets, and a 10-inch radius. The Pattern Thin neck profile and 42.9 mm nut width give useful reference points for players considering the feel. The listed scale length is 625 mm, or about 24.6 inches.

Both owners mentioned that the factory action felt slightly high. One lowered it and then found the neck comfortable to play, describing its feel as excellent. That player also noted that a thicker neck might have suited them better, but still felt the Pattern Thin profile worked well. The other buyer noticed a nut that could have been tightened more securely, possibly loosened during shipping. Neither issue was presented as a major fault, but they make a post-delivery setup check sensible.

The shorter scale may appeal to players who like a compact reach and an easy feel under the fretting hand. The first owner described it as particularly short and cautioned that players with large hands might not enjoy it. That is a matter of preference rather than a universal drawback, so trying the neck and scale before buying is especially useful if you are accustomed to longer-scale guitars.

Pickups and controls

The Mira 594 is fitted with two PRS 58/15 LT humbuckers. Its controls comprise one volume knob, one tone knob, a three-way toggle switch, and two mini toggle switches for coil tapping. This gives players a straightforward way to move between pickup selections and access coil-tapped sounds. The owner review describes the clean tones as especially appealing and reports that the guitar also handled overdrive, distortion, and heavier rock sounds convincingly.

That owner called the instrument a versatile all-rounder, with enough range to cover a broad set of playing styles. This is a personal assessment rather than a guarantee of a particular sound, but it lines up with the combination of two humbuckers and coil-tap switches. Players looking for a guitar that can move from clean passages to driven rock tones without changing instruments may find the control scheme practical.

Hardware and finish

The detailed specification lists a PRS patented tremolo and PRS Phase III locking tuners, along with nickel hardware. There is a discrepancy in the supplied information: a summary line says "Tremolo: None," while the detailed specification names a patented tremolo. Buyers should confirm the bridge fitted to the specific guitar before purchase. The instrument includes a gig bag; a separate hard case is not listed as included.

The Platinum Metallic finish drew positive comments from both buyers. One described the finish on their guitar as excellent and identified it as nitrocellulose lacquer, while the other found no finish defects under close inspection. Since the supplied product specifications do not identify the finish material, that nitrocellulose detail should be treated as an observation about the reviewed guitar, not a confirmed specification for every example.

Verdict

The PRS S2 Mira 594 Platinum Metallic combines a mahogany build, a Pattern Thin neck, 58/15 LT humbuckers, and coil-tap controls in a compact-scale design. Owner feedback highlights its comfortable playing feel, strong finish, and wide tonal range. The reported high action is a straightforward setup matter, while the shorter scale and relatively slim neck deserve a hands-on check for players with specific preferences.

At a listed price of 2080, this is a considered purchase, and the supplied reviews suggest that buyers felt the instrument justified its cost. Confirm the bridge specification with the seller, inspect the setup on arrival, and make sure the scale suits your hands. For players who want a light-feeling, versatile PRS with a metallic finish and humbucker-based sounds, the Mira 594 makes a compelling case.
