Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: A portion of the frets were not level with each other requiring them to be leveled, recrowned, and polished into near mint condition. A majority of frets showed evidence of play wear. As such, these frets were also leveled, recrowned, and polished back to a near mint state. The guitar required a full adjustment to the truss rod, nut, and bridge to be brought to a perfect level of playability. No further work was required.

This is a surprising guitar, so much so that one of our team almost bought it! This guitar is lightweight, and sounds amazing thanks to a slightly thinner mahogany body capped with a solid maple top - paired with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, this is a particularly snappy instrument and there are no muddy tones to be found here! The crqaftsmanship is excellent and thanks to our luthier's work this thing genuinelycould not play any better. Don't miss this one!

From Paul Reed Smith Guitars

The SE Custom 24 brings the original PRS design platform to the high-quality, more affordable SE Series of instruments. Played by internationally touring artists, gigging musicians, and aspiring players, the SE Custom 24 is a modern classic with roadworthy durability, addictive playability, and wide array of tones.

 

Featuring a maple top, mahogany back, wide thin maple neck, rosewood fretboard with bird inlays, and the PRS patented tremolo, the PRS SE Custom 24 boasts many familiar appointments. Its versatile sounds come from the 85/15 “S” pickups paired with a volume, push/pull tone control, and 3-way blade pickup selector. Now with ergonomic lampshade knobs and PRS's flat-grip switch tip design, the PRS SE Custom 24 is more performance-ready than ever.
