PRS SE CE24, Turquoise - Ex Demo Overview
The PRS SE CE 24 is a remarkable blend of tradition and innovation. Pairing the traditional PRS Custom 24 maple top, mahogany back, and rosewood fretboard with a bolt-on maple neck, it delivers extra snap and response in every note - especially thanks to PRS's unique spin on these time-tested methods. This bright edge shines through the 85/15 ?S? pickups which offer extended high and low ends with clarity and balance. Even better, their raucous humbucker punch is backed up by the versatility of coil splits from the push/pull tone control, so you can easily access the musical chime of single coil twangs.
The PRS SE CE 24 is not only about superior tone and playability, but it also exudes an unmistakable PRS aesthetic appeal. The flame maple top and mahogany back are exemplary PRS quality. And of course, the PRS birds decorating the smooth rosewood fretboard complete the top-class appearance. And it doesn't just look good, because the wide thin neck carve promotes fluid lead and rhythm playing over the frets, with unhindered upper fret access thanks to the scalloped cut away. Featuring a patented PRS tremolo and PRS-designed tuners, this guitar will captivate audiences every night.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionMoulded 85/15 "S" pickups
One of the most notable features of the PRS SE CE 24 is its use of the moulded 85/15 “S” pickups. These pickups were designed by Paul Reed Smith and are based on the coveted 85/15 humbuckers found in PRS's USA Core line of guitars. The "S" designation refers to their moulded construction, which allows for enhanced clarity and balance in the high and low ends. These pickups deliver a punchy humbucker tone that still retains clarity and definition, making them perfect for everything from hot lead lines to intricate chordal work.
Additionally, the push/pull tone control allows for coil splitting on both pickups, giving you access to single-coil tones as well. This adds a whole new layer of versatility to the already impressive tonal options of this guitar. With just a simple flick of the tone control, you can go from thick humbucker sounds to bright and twangy single coil tones - perfect for everything from funk and country to rock and metal.
PRS Tremolo and Tuners
The PRS SE CE 24 features a patented PRS tremolo system, which is designed to provide smooth and stable whammy bar action. The bridge also has individual saddles for each string, allowing for precise intonation adjustments. This means you can divebomb to your heart's content without having to worry about going out of tune.
To keep the guitar in tune, PRS has also designed their own set of tuners for this model. These are high-quality and reliable tuners that will ensure your guitar stays perfectly in tune, no matter how hard you play. This is especially important if you plan on using the tremolo system frequently, as it can put significant strain on the strings and tuners.
CE24's bolt-on neck
The PRS SE CE 24 features a bolt-on maple neck that offers a fast and responsive playing experience. This type of construction is not typically found on PRS guitars, as they are known for their set-neck designs. However, the bolt-on neck on this model gives the guitar extra snap and response, making it perfect for shredders and players who want to cut through the mix.
In addition to its playability, the bolt-on neck also contributes to the guitar's unique tonal character. It adds a certain brightness and attack to each note that sets it apart from other PRS guitars with set-neck constructions. This combination of traditional and modern construction methods makes the PRS SE CE 24 a truly versatile instrument.
