Signature PRS tone and feel
The PRS Custom 24 is the guitar that put PRS on the map. With a perfect balance of tone, playability, and aesthetics, it has become the benchmark for modern electric guitars. The combination of a figured maple top and mahogany back gives it a rich, resonant character with plenty of sustain and harmonic depth. Every curve and contour of the body has been shaped for comfort, making it as enjoyable to play standing as it is seated. Whether you’re digging in for expressive lead lines or holding down tight rhythms, the Custom 24 offers a responsive, intuitive feel that inspires confidence in any musical setting.
Versatile DMO pickup design
At the heart of the Custom 24’s tonal palette are the PRS DMO pickups—Dynamic, Musical, Open. Designed with input from Paul Reed Smith and the PRS engineering team, these pickups are the result of years of meticulous R&D. They offer a balanced voice with plenty of clarity and articulation, making them ideal for both clean and overdriven tones. The five-way blade switch adds a wide range of pickup combinations, delivering everything from bell-like single-coil snap to thick, singing humbucker tones. This makes the Custom 24 a flexible choice for players who need one guitar that can cover it all—from blues and fusion to rock and metal.
Stability and precision in hardware
Staying in tune and playing with confidence is effortless thanks to the inclusion of PRS’s patented Gen III tremolo and Phase III locking tuners. The tremolo design allows for expressive pitch manipulation without compromising tuning stability, thanks to its engineered knife-edge and brass inserts. The Phase III tuners feature a lightweight design with excellent tuning accuracy, and the distinctive wing buttons offer a classic visual touch. Together, this hardware combination ensures a rock-solid playing experience and improved resonance across the instrument. Whether you're adding subtle vibrato or diving deep into bends, the Custom 24 stays reliably in tune.
Premium craftsmanship and finish
Every detail of the PRS Custom 24 reflects the brand’s commitment to quality and innovation. From the inlaid signature headstock and iconic bird fretboard inlays to the high-gloss nitro finish, this guitar is as visually striking as it is sonically impressive. The finish not only enhances the natural beauty of the figured maple top but also allows the wood to breathe, improving tonal response. PRS’s attention to craftsmanship ensures that each Custom 24 feels like a precision instrument right out of the case. Delivered in a premium hardshell case, this is a guitar built for life on the road or in the studio, ready to perform whenever you demand.
