PRS Custom 24 10-Top Electric Guitar Charcoal - The Custom 24 is the original PRS that Paul Reed Smith took to his first tradeshow in 1985. A perennial favorite with musicians, the Custom 24 has been updated for 2011 with V12 finish, Pattern Thin mahogany neck and uncovered 59/09 pickups wired for our redesigned 5-way blade switch, which offers a dual humbucker option for the first time (see switching positions below).
Finish should enhance the look, sound, and feel of a guitar by accentuating the wood’s inherent beauty and feel without hindering its natural resonance. And PRS Guitars’ new “V12” finish does just that. Introduced at Experience PRS 2010, “V12” is a very thin, hard, and clear finish that will not crack or react with thinners. After roughly 12 years in development, it is halfway between acrylic and nitro but with a classic feel all its own.
Neck shapes have always been a high priority for PRS and a hallmark of thier quality. A guitar should feel comfortable as soon as you pick it up, and the neck is paramount to that connection. The “Pattern Thin” neck is an updated version of PRS’s traditional Wide Thin neck. This new neck shape reflects modern tooling and programming that allows us to even more precisely shape and consistently reproduce our necks.
