“A new evolution for PRS”: Herman Li tears up the PRS template with the Chleo – a signature model 4 years in the making that’s unlike anything the firm has ever done before

PRS Chleo Herman Li.

PRS has launched its first signature guitar for DragonForce virtuoso Herman Li, who has been prized away from Ibanez to help develop a bold new electric guitar that is unlike anything Paul Reed Smith's firm has ever produced.

Speaking to Guitar World about jumping ship last year, Li admitted, “It was my dream as a kid to have an Ibanez signature, [but] Paul said he’d do anything to make it happen.”
