Description

Stand out from the crowd with the PRS SE CE 24 electric guitar. Part of the budget-friendly SE Series, this fresh-faced electric is constructed around a striking mahogany body paired with a maple top and a durable maple neck for extra brightness and snap.

A pair of 85/15 "S" humbuckers deliver signature PRS tone that’s versatile enough to handle everything from rock and country to blues and jazz, while a push/pull tone control allows additional tweaking and coil splits. Plus, a PRS patented tremolo adds even more sonic expression to your playing and a touch of flair to any solo. No matter where you are on your musical journey, the PRS SE CE 24 provides style and comfort along with tons of tone and virtually endless options for sonic sculpting.

And with a thin flame maple veneer for a visually pleasing element, this instrument will get attention before you even strum a chord. Plus, ergonomic contours and a double cutaway design allow for unhindered upper-fret access and hours of comfortable playability, whether it’s during a gig, rehearsal or recording session.

PRS SE CE 24 electric guitar pickups

Powerful Pickups

The PRS SE CE 24 electric comes equipped with two 85/15 "S" humbuckers for a bright, high-gain tone that is well-suited for a range of musical styles. These classic, PAF-sounding PRS pickups provide an extended high and low end with clarity and balance, allowing every nuance of your playing to shine through.

The Most Versatile Guitar I've Ever Had

I've had this guitar for almost a year and I love it. I play in a band consisting of 4 pilots and we sometimes fly our light aircraft to gigs. Having a single guitar that is as versatile as this one is ideal for this since I don't have to bring multiple guitars in order to get different sounds. I original bought this to augment my beloved 80's Strat but alas the Strat normally stays at home where it is safe. The PRS has become my main electric for gigging. I have left this guitar stock except I did added strap locks. It does everything I need, is very light, plays very well, and sounds so sweet! I also love the gig bag and the fact that you can wear it like a backpack. Did I mention that the finish and color are fantastic? I love the fact that the front and back of the guitar are different colors. So if you're gigging or just playing at home, get this guitar. If you want a versatile guitar that will meet your needs for almost every situation, this is it.

    I play a lot of rock and this guitar does that. It can play any genre of music. The Pros: Great sound and action on the neck! The Humbuckers are great. Cons The tuners you have to fight to keep it in tune. I would replace the tuners. I love playing these guitars so much I got two more!

    Purchased guitar and went straight to a gig. Played two other gigs that week. Guitar sounded great with the stock strings. The 24 fret thin wide neck was awesome. Been having trouble with my hand but no problems even after playing three gigs in a row.

    This is not the top of the line, but this is amazingly built and crafted. This is my first time having a PRS, and I'm in love with this guitar. The feels, the tone, the playability is incomparable. I would definitely recommend this to my friends.
