The Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 – The Original PRS That Started It All

Iconic Design and Legendary Playability

The rosewood fretboard with signature bird inlays and 24 frets on a 25” scale length ensure a familiar yet refined playing experience. PRS Phase III Locking Tuners with wing buttons enhance tuning stability and tone transfer, while the PRS Patented Gen III Tremolo delivers exceptional intonation and dynamic vibrato control.

PRS DMO Pickups for Wide-Open Tonal Versatility

Equipped with PRS DMO (Dynamic, Musical, Open) pickups, this guitar delivers a balanced frequency response with a vocal-like quality, ensuring clarity and depth across the tonal spectrum. The 5-way blade switch provides a wide range of sounds, making the Custom 24 a versatile instrument suited for rock, blues, jazz, and beyond. Whether you need crystal-clear cleans, articulate mid-gain crunch, or high-gain sustain, the Custom 24 is ready for any playing style.

Unparalleled Attention to Detail

Every element of the Custom 24 is designed for precision and reliability, from its double-acting truss rod to its perfectly set neck joint. The nickel hardware provides a classic yet durable aesthetic, and the PRS bone nut enhances tuning stability while maximizing resonance. PRS’s legendary craftsmanship ensures that this guitar is road-ready and built to last.

The PRS Custom 24 – A Timeless Classic
