2025 Paul Reed Smith PRS Core Series Custom 24 Black with Natural Back 7.45 lbs

2025 Paul Reed Smith PRS Core Series Custom 24 Black with Natural Back 7.45 lbs The One That Started It All The Custom 24 is the original PRS. Since its introduction, it has offered a unique option for serious players and defined PRS tone and playability. Played by internationally touring artists, gigging musicians, and aspiring players, the Custom 24 features a figured maple top and mahogany back with a 24-fret, 25” scale length mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard. Anchored by PRS’s patented Gen III tremolo and Phase III tuners with wing buttons the Custom 24 is known for its playability, versatility, and tuning stability. The Custom 24 is outfitted with PRS DMO treble and bass pickups with volume and tone controls and a 5-way blade switch. DMO (Dynamic, Musical, Open) pickups were personally designed by Paul Reed Smith and the PRS New Products Engineering team. From our own hands-on research into coveted vintage pickup models to advancements in signal analyzation and “tuning” technology, these pickups incorporate every detail of pickup knowledge PRS has gained in recent years of R&D. PRS DMO pickups have a “wide open” sound with vocal character, meaning they deliver clear, pleasant-sounding tones across a wide range of frequencies (bass to treble) in each pickup. The Custom 24 is the quintessential PRS guitar. This iconic instrument was the first model that Paul Reed Smith brought to the public at PRS Guitars’ first Winter NAMM show in 1985 and has been a top seller ever since. PRS Patented Tremolo, Gen III Meticulous design delivering sonic fidelity, player ergonomics, and revolutionary tuning stability. PRS Phase III Locking Tuners with Wing Buttons Modern locking technology with vintage elegance, these lightweight tuners promote tone transfer for a louder, more resonant instrument.
