PRS Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 Guitar 10-Top Mash Green Rosewood Neck Ebony Board Pattern Thin - 2016

Music Store Live is proud to present this beautiful PRS Custom 24 finished in Mash Green over a highly figured flame maple 10-top and an ebony fretboard over a full rosewood neck!

Flawless playability - that's a pretty good way to describe this Custom 24. The set up is, well, perfect. The action is low, the neck is straight, the intonation is right on the money and this guitar plays like butter on hot toast in every position. The Pattern Thin neck is as fast as they come and the laser beam accurate fretwork makes any style of music a joy to play. This axe can cut any gig in the world. Period. The Gen III tremolo system is to die for. Whether you're dive bombing the tremolo or just adding some light fluttering to your notes, you'll still get tons of sustain and it will return to pitch every time. The ebony fretboard on this one will give you a brighter tone with some more snap to the top end without that mid-scoop that a maple fretboard and/or neck can give you. The rosewood neck feels absolutely sublime under your fretting hand. If you've never tried a rosewood neck before, do yourself the favor. They feel amazing and only get better over time as the natural oils from your hands seep into the pores of the wood. It's tonally rich and warm. You can get some of the most desirable sounds you can think of with the different pickup configurations so you can get the most out of the 85/15 pickups with the 5-way selector switch which allows for some coil-splitting options as well. This Custom 24 is for the player who wants to be inspired every time they pick up their instrument.

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 tremolo system and PRS 85/15 treble and bass pickups with volume and tone controls and a 5-way blade switch. 85/15 pickups were personally designed by Paul Reed Smith for PRS’s 30th Anniversary. They 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.
