Why this number?
The typical used price is the median of 14 used sales observed in the last 6 months, with outliers removed and the figure rounded. An observed sale is often the last asking price rather than a confirmed hammer price.

| Most sold between | €720–€910 | 25th to 75th percentile, same window |
| Window | last 6 months | the tightest of 90 days, 6 months and 24 months with 8 used sales |
| Sample | 14 used sales | thin data, treat as a rough guide |
| By condition | €780 | very good, median of 8 sales, same window |
| Time to sell | — | only counted from listings we watch start to finish; not enough yet |
| Sell-through | 0% | 48 watched listings resolved, 6 months |
| Didn’t sell here | €1,500 | median ask of 48 listings that ended without a sale, 6 months; 36 from Japan at €1,450, the other 12 at €1,600, 100% above typical used; 46 withdrawn by the seller, 2 with no bids |
| Live asks | €1,600 | typical ask across 113 listings, 100% above typical used |

| Sales on record | 876 | all-time, all platforms |
| Closest new | €1,899 | PRS S2 Vela Satin at Thomann; a relative’s price, not this model’s |

About the PRS S2 Vela
The S2 Vela was PRS's first offset body shape: a solid mahogany body with an asymmetric bevel, made in the USA at PRS's Maryland factory. The scarfed set mahogany neck has a Pattern Regular carve, a rosewood board, 22 frets, a 25 inch scale, a 10 inch radius and a 1 21/32 inch nut. There is one volume, a push-pull tone that splits the bridge humbucker and a three-way toggle, and the plate-style bridge carries two compensated brass saddles and loads from the top.
The pickups changed twice. Early examples carry an S2 Starla bridge humbucker with a Type-D single coil at the neck; later ones pair a DS-01 with the Type-D. For 2024 the S2 Series moved to USA-made pickups and electronics, and the Vela now has a DS-01 with a Narrowfield at the neck. Dot inlays were standard with birds as an option; recent ones have birds. Most weighed examples come in at about 5.9 to 6.5 lb (2.7 to 3 kg). It comes in a padded PRS gig bag, often with paperwork and case candy. Colors include Antique White, Black, McCarty Tobacco Sunburst, Sea Foam Green, Frost Green Metallic and Walnut.

Price history
Every recorded sale, one point each: 876 of them, placed by the day the ad went up. The line follows the middle of the sales around each point, with the middle half behind it, and breaks wherever nothing sold nearby. Condition is mixed, so some of the spread is a mint against a fair rather than the market moving.
