Description

First unveiled at the 1985 NAMM Show as Paul Reed Smith’s very first production instrument, the PRS Custom 24 has gone on to become one of the most iconic modern electric guitars ever made. With its signature bird inlays, versatile dual humbucker setup, comfortable carved body and 24-fret design, it’s easy to see why players keep coming back to the Custom 24 decade after decade. Stunning 1-piece quilt Maple top This particular Custom 24 really stands out from the crowd thanks to its breathtaking Artist Grade 1-piece quilted Maple top. Carefully selected for its exceptional figuring, depth and movement, it’s the closest thing you’ll find to a Private Stock top without stepping into that territory. No two tops are ever the same, giving every guitar its own unique character and visual appeal. Korean Awabi Bird Inlays PRS bird inlays are legendary, but these Korean Awabi (abalone) birds take things to new heights. Bursting with vibrant pinks, teals and shimmering iridescent hues, they catch the light beautifully and provide a striking contrast against the fingerboard. It’s a classy touch that enhances an already gorgeous instrument.
