US-made pickups yield unmatched clarity and character
Playing your favorite licks through the S2 Standard 24's covered 58/15 LT pickups immediately imbues the complex tonal profile of the guitar's tonewood composition with a masterful mix of vintage-inspired hues and contemporary articulation. Like the "S"-series pickups before them, these 58/15 LT humbuckers are modeled after the 58/15 pickups Paul Reed Smith designed for PRS's 30th anniversary. From shimmering cleans to blistering high-gain tones, the clarity and extended tonal range provided by these pickups have Sweetwater's guitarists in agreement: the S2 Standard 24 is the ideal, powerful workhorse guitar.
Pattern Thin power, speed, and support
With next-gen designs come modern accommodations, and the PRS S2 Standard 24 is brimming with contemporary character that will meet the needs of the most exacting performers yet won’t compromise on the time-tested panache seasoned PRS players adore. This iteration of the S2 features a Pattern Thin-profile mahogany neck adorned with a rosewood fretboard. As a descendent of PRS’s hallmark Pattern Regular profile, this S2’s Pattern Thin design transposes the years of prototyping that led to Paul Reed Smith’s original, pre-factory neck profile into a form factor reimagined for the modern era. With a 10-inch fingerboard radius, 24 nickel frets, and a 25-inch scale, the S2 Standard 24 expertly blends speed, accessibility, and comfort into a versatile gauntlet of total tonal exploration, perfectly malleable, yet never wavering on its distinctive sonic character.
