PRS 35th Anniversary Custom 24, Emerald #0314854

Full Description

A vivacious, vintage tone

We all know of PRS' steadfast quality, their ever-growing expertise, and unmatched craftsmanship. And the 85/15 pickups are a true demonstration of this. After taking the guitar world by storm in 1985, PRS enthusiasts rely on these pickups to offer incredible vintage sounds as well as the versatility modern players need. Go from the smooth, mellow tone of the neck to powerful bridge tones using the 3-way toggle switch and experience an abundance of electrifying sound. Whether it's clean sounds you're after or more aggression and bite, these pickups don't disappoint. Their highly responsive nature also means your varying dynamics and careful adjustment of the volume and tone controls will have a big impact on your sound. And with two coil-tap switches, you can achieve an even greater vintage tone by reducing the output of the pickups.

A superb build

Deliver a magnificent tone that encompasses warmth and brightness in good measure whilst still projecting every note with gorgeous clarity. That is exactly what the mahogany and maple build of this guitar allows you to do. Taking centre stage is a maple top. It really is the ultimate wood for gigging with. Whether you're strumming or fingerpicking, maple ensures there is glistening definition, enough to separate the notes of even the most complex of chords. It is bright, loud, and offers minimal feedback, so you won’t have to suffer that dreaded muddy sound. Prepare for sharp articulation, immense volume, and a mesmerising gig.

Providing a resonant undercurrent of warmth are the mahogany back and sides. Mahogany balances out the bright tonal qualities of maple perfectly thanks to its focus on midrange frequencies. And it promises a lifetime of divine playing as it matures beautifully, growing more focused the more you play. Such a gorgeous guitar body also needs excellent strength and durability to be able to handle wild gigs and lengthy studio sessions. Luckily, mahogany is incredibly robust and so as well as aging with grace, its sturdiness will never tire either.

Deliver pure brilliance

The magnificent qualities of this guitar travel from the body and up a sublime neck which is also made from mahogany. The strength and durability of mahogany is needed to ensure the neck serves you all that practical and tonal goodness for years to come. Showcasing a tremendous, thin design, the neck is wonderfully comfortable to hold and gives your fingers the space they need to roam the rosewood fretboard freely. Rosewood is a stunning accompaniment to mahogany and maple as it evens out any harsh frequencies to ensure you are left with a beautifully balanced sound that begs your virtuosic sculpting. Its shaded colour embellished with elegant bird inlays is dark, striking, and truly beautiful.

Featuring a 25" scale length, the PRS Custom 24 is designed to make pitch bends exceptionally easy whilst the right amount of string tension still provides gorgeous sustain. Slide your fingers across the smooth and fast frets effortlessly and experience the freedom of a 24-fret instrument with a classic aesthetic and unique, versatile tone. A sturdy tremolo bridge then allows you to enhance your music. Whether you're performing mind-blowing divebombs or just adding another dynamic dimension to your chords, do so with vigour and passion.

Premium PRS quality

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Custom 24 is the epitome of PRS' renowned excellence. Every single tonewood and piece of hardware is superbly robust and can handle any excessive, aggressive playing whilst always delivering incredible sound. And if you're going to sound amazing then you'll want to look the part too. Displaying a sleek, striking design, this guitar has an undeniably exceptional aesthetic. To maintain its exquisite construction, a hardcase is included with the guitar. So, travel from gig to gig and to the studio knowing your magnificent instrument won't suffer any damage on the road. It will be ready and waiting in pristine condition.
