Gorgeous, Versatile, and a Joy to Play

Yet another masterful creation from Paul Reed Smith and his team of artisans, the PRS Custom 24 Piezo supplies you with a broad tonal palette. A mahogany body and maple top pair up to deliver a classic tone with a snappy attack and velvety sustain. The guitar is completed by a Pattern Thin mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard with the iconic bird inlays. While the construction and tonewoods are impressive enough, the electronics package is the real show stopper. Plug in and enjoy the contemporary sound the pair of 85/15 humbuckers provides. Need some acoustic flavor? Then Sweetwater recommends dialing up the onboard piezo system and blending it to taste with the tone from the pickups. All in all, the PRS Custom 24 Piezo is a world-class guitar ready to elevate any player’s guitar collection.

Fan-favorite 85/15 pickups

Prepare to be impressed! When you plug in your Custom 24 Piezo to your pedalboard and favorite amp, the guitar’s 85/15 pickups definitely deliver the goods. Meticulously designed and refined by Paul Reed Smith over the course of three decades, 85/15 humbuckers offer an updated take on the classic humbuckers of yesteryear. Though the highs and lows are powerful, these pickups provide a balanced response across all strings and the entire tonal spectrum. Whatever genre or style you play, the Custom 24 Piezo’s 85/15 pickups set you up for sonic success.

Museum-worthy materials

Every Custom 24 Piezo is a symphony of top-notch materials, uncompromising craftsmanship, and attention to detail that’s truly second to none. Your new axe follows a time-honored tonewood formula of a mahogany body topped by maple. Aside from its incredible looks, the maple adds a brighter attack to the warm resonance of the mahogany body. Whether you’re looking for an eye-catching instrument or a sonic powerhouse, the Custom 24 Piezo delivers on both fronts.

Onboard piezo gives you amazing acoustic tones

This version of the Custom 24 comes with a tremolo tailpiece outfitted with a piezo system developed in collaboration with LR Baggs. It gives you the flexibility to handle acoustic-style passages onstage without switching instruments. There are plenty of ways to deploy the piezo. You get a 3-way selector for multiple pickup configurations and a blend knob to mix the piezo signal to taste with the humbucker signal.

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.
