Player's Perspective
The Custom 24 is the original guitar that Paul took to his first tradeshow in '85 and it has only gained in popularity since. We cherry-picked this one from PRS's offerings because it has a particularly awesome top for not being a 10-Top. All that means is you get to keep that $600 upcharge in your pocket and you still get a highly figured flame maple top that looks awesome!
The tone is incredible. The playability is simply divine. It's balanced and dynamic with rich harmonic undertones that shine in any style of playing. You'll have a tough time finding a guitar that feels better than this - it plays exceptionally well even by PRS standards. Bends are effortless and the neck is super comfortable. With the diversity of sounds you can get out of this thing it can cut any gig in the world, period. This Custom 24 is for the player who wants to be inspired every time they pick up their instrument.
Item Details
The Custom 24 is the quintessential PRS guitar. This iconic instrument was the first model that Paul Reed Smith brought to the public at PRS Guitars’ first Winter NAMM show in 1985 and has been a top seller ever since. Played by internationally touring artists, gigging musicians, and aspiring players, the Custom 24 features PRS’s patented Gen III tremolo system and PRS 85/15 pickups with volume and tone controls and a 5-way blade switch. 85/15 pickups were personally designed by Paul Reed Smith to offer remarkable clarity and extended high and low end.
The Custom 24 is the original PRS. Since its introduction, it has offered a unique tonal option for serious players and defined PRS tone and playability.
