Iconic PRS Tone and Feel

The PRS SE Custom 24 solidbody electric guitar puts the sound, playability, and gorgeous looks of the Custom line into a more affordable instrument. The SE Custom 24's mahogany body and maple top now feature a more traditional "violin" body carve, giving it the feel of top-level Custom 24 guitars. A pair of 85/15 "S" pickups delivers a wealth of superb humbucking or single-coil tones. Its maple neck features a Pattern Thin shape for comfortably fast playability, and the ebony fretboard is adorned with old school Birds inlays for that iconic PRS look. This guitar is an authentic PRS through and through, and a time-tested favorite among guitarists here at Sweetwater!

Exceptional components

The combination of a mahogany body and maple top gives the SE Custom 24 a perfect balance of rich midrange and bright snap — plus, the beautiful quilt maple top veneer helps make this instrument a real looker. Add a pair of PRS-designed humbuckers in the bridge and neck positions, and you've got a recipe for thick, sustaining tones. Pull up on the tone pot, and you'll access chiming, bell-like single-coil sounds. And the SE Custom 24's maple neck has a Pattern Thin carve, making it very fast and playable.

PRS-designed 85/15 "S" humbucking pickups

This SE Custom 24 is loaded with PRS-designed 85/15 "S" humbucking pickups. An update on PRS's original humbuckers, the 85/15 "S" sounds terrific whether used in humbucking or single-coil modes. They offer you plenty of output for driving your amp hard while sounding clear and detailed when you want. These SE humbuckers closely resemble the tones of the US-made versions found in the solidbody electric guitars.

PRS quality in every guitar

All PRS guitars are designed for performance, right out of the case — and the SE Custom 24 is no exception. Constructed from high-quality tonewoods and components, PRS instruments carry on a commitment to quality that's been the brand's hallmark since 1985, when Paul Smith began crafting guitars for some of the most elite players in the world. In fact, you'll often see a PRS SE in the touring rigs of the most well-respected PRS artists in the world.

  • Full-featured Paul Reed Smith at a great price
  • Legendary PRS quality and playability
  • Beautiful flame top with quilt maple veneer to give this guitar an elegant look
  • Mahogany body for punchy tone and long sustain

PRS SE CUSTOM 24

Got this guitar a couple of weeks ago. First I want to thank Charles Dent for helping me pick this one out. He sent me several pictures of different ones to choose from, and the one I picked out is absolutely gorgeous! I only had to adjust the trust rod a tiny bit. It plays like butter and a very FAST fingerboard! I bought the PRS locking tuners, cause the stock ones were junk! I have several high end Gibsons and Fenders, and this guitar almost smokes them! I'm even happy with the pickups!

Insane for an SE

I have a Mark Holcomb in Satin Blue, so I wanted something with a smaller fretboard radius and a cool quilt with not as gnarly pickups. This is just that. It came in perfectly playable condition and looked absolutely gorgeous with the matching headstock. So worth it. It sounds great, but I still may swap the pickups to Seymours down the road. All the switches, knobs, and frets feel very high quality. No sharp frets sticking out of the side. Tuning stays pretty accurate, even better than my MH edition.

(My review photo looks really blue, the stock photos are more accurate to the eye. It's like an Ocean Turquoise.)

AMAZING GUITAR AT ANY PRICE!!

This guitar easily met all of my expectations. I have bunch of nice guitars already. Custom shop Les Pauls,(3),ES-345, 2 custom Strats, etc. This guitar easily performs as well as any of them. The pickups are full and meaty, the push-pull tone pot for split coil, works great. And most importantly the neck is very playable. A few minor setup changes and it's perfect.

Love this guitar!!

This is my second PRS, I got hooked on PRS a year ago after getting my SE Hollowbody ii, which quickly became my #1. Now with the Custom, I can't wipe the smile off my face whenever I play it. It's a true joy how amazing it looks, sounds, and plays. As always Sweetwater staff is second to none!
Rated 4.5/5

love this guitar

This is my second se custom 24 and I love it even more. The quilted maple top is beautiful. The color is a little more green than turquoise, but still a killer color. There is also a fret that has a little snag, but is an easy fix.

The guitar is set up exactly how I want it. Plays so well and the sound is perfect.

The service through Sweetwater was great and I couldn't ask for anything better from them.

You don't even have to play guitar to know that PRS instruments are in a league of their own. With their exquisitely figured tops and premium appointments, each PRS is a playable work of art. But it goes way deeper than the surface. Every time Paul visits Sweetwater, we get a deeper look at his amazing instruments. We've even hosted several PRS Custom Shop events, complete with Paul's personal Wood Library! Whether they're his most affordable SE electric guitars, top-quality acoustics, or amps, it's always amazing to see what PRS comes up with. What's more, we keep a ton of PRS guitars in our amazing Guitar Showroom, so the staff at Sweetwater can get hands on with all of their latest models. We'd love to tell you all about them.
