Yes, the PRS NF53 in Blue Matteo is a real guitar. You might not find it listed by that exact name on PRS’s official website, but it's a legit model offered through your trusted musicstreet. The Blue Matteo finish might be part of a limited run or special edition.

What Is the PRS NF53 Blue Matteo?

The PRS NF53 Blue Matteo is a cool version of the NF53 guitar. It’s based on a 1953 vintage guitar that Paul Reed Smith (PRS founder) loves. The guitar has an old-school feel but with modern features that make it super fun and easy to play.

“Blue Matteo” is just the name of the color. It’s a bright, shiny blue that stands out and looks awesome on stage. You’ll find this color on other PRS guitars too.

What makes this guitar special? It’s light, sounds super clear, and has special pickups that don’t make that annoying humming noise you sometimes get with other guitars.

What Do the Pickups Do?

This guitar uses Narrowfield DD pickups the “DD” stands for Deep Dish. They’re shaped a bit different from regular pickups and are built to give you bright, punchy sound with no hum. They’re great for clean tones or even if you want to add a little grit.

So whether you like playing blues, country, funk, or even rock, this guitar can handle it.

What’s Special About the Blue Matteo Finish?

PRS makes some guitars in a color called “Blue Matteo.” Even though they don’t list this exact NF53 version on their website, stores like Sweetwater and Guitar Center have it. So it’s not fake just a more limited version.

The glossy blue finish gives the guitar a custom look that really stands out.

NF53 vs. NF3 - Don’t Get Them Mixed Up

Some people confuse the NF53 with an older model called the NF3. Here’s the difference:

  • NF3: Had three pickups, 25" scale length, and a carved top
  • NF53: Has two pickups, 25.5" scale, and a flat top more like a classic Tele-style guitar

Also, some folks mix up Blue Matteo with PRS’s SE guitars. But this version of the NF53 is a USA-made Core model, not part of the cheaper SE series.
