The PRS SE Custom 24 isn't just an affordable entry into the PRS family — it’s the guitar that started it all, updated for modern players. Paul Reed Smith brought the original Custom 24 to his first tradeshow in 1985, and decades later, its legacy is evident in every SE model.
This workhorse guitar is built for the stage and studio, offering professional-grade tone and playability at an accessible price.
Quality Craftsmanship, Effortless Playability
The SE Custom 24 is crafted with the same attention to detail as its American-made counterpart. It features a maple top with a shallow violin carve and a resonant mahogany back, creating a balanced tone that performs reliably night after night. The fast, comfortable wide-thin maple neck makes long sets feel effortless, whether you're playing lead or rhythm.
Maple Top with Shallow Violin Carve: Delivers a natural sustain and articulate high-end clarity, while the classic carve adds visual elegance and ergonomic comfort.
Mahogany Back: Provides the warm, full-bodied resonance that mahogany is known for, balancing the brightness of the maple top for a well-rounded tonal profile.
Wide Thin Maple Neck: Designed for speed and comfort, this neck profile suits players who want smooth, effortless access across all 24 frets — ideal for both rhythm and lead playing.
Tone That Covers All the Ground
The SE Custom 24's versatility comes from its 85/15 "S" pickups, which are based on the pickups in PRS's high-end models. Known for their clarity and dynamic response, they produce a clean sound at lower volumes and offer rich harmonic overtones when driven. The push/pull tone control and 3-way blade selector provide a wide array of tones through a simple, intuitive layout.
85/15 "S" Pickups: Engineered for clarity and output, these pickups capture every nuance of your playing style — from glassy cleans to thick, singing leads.
Push/Pull Tone Control: Unlock a broader tonal palette with a simple pull of the tone knob, giving you coil-split options and additional sound-shaping flexibility.
3-Way Blade Pickup Selector: Quickly switch between neck, bridge, and combined pickup configurations, so you can adapt your tone on the fly without missing a beat.
The PRS Tremolo Experience
The SE Custom 24 features PRS's patented molded tremolo bridge, one of the most stable and responsive in its class. It stays in tune through heavy use and responds smoothly to subtle vibrato and dramatic dives. Paired with a rosewood fretboard and iconic bird inlays, this guitar feels like a premium instrument from the moment you pick it up.
PRS Patented Molded Tremolo Bridge: Engineered for tuning stability and expressive playability, this tremolo handles everything from subtle vibrato to aggressive bends without sending your guitar out of tune.
Rosewood Fretboard: Offers a smooth, warm playing surface with just the right amount of natural grip — ideal for fast runs and precise fretting across all genres.
Bird Inlays: PRS' signature fretboard markers aren't just decorative. They double as highly visible position markers that make navigating the neck intuitive, even under stage lighting.
The One That Started It All
The PRS SE Custom 24 Exclusive deserves a spot in any serious guitarist's collection. It combines a rich history with exceptional playability and tonal versatility, ready to adapt to any musical direction. From touring professionals to aspiring musicians, the SE Custom 24 offers the full PRS experience in an accessible, road-ready package.
