collapse expand iconDescription

From the iconic shapes that launched the PRS revolution in 1985, the Custom 24-08 continues the tradition of the foundational Custom 24 model while enhancing its sonic palette for the modern guitarist. This PRS Custom 24-08 with Pattern Thin neck combines classic tonewoods and construction with an innovative switching system, delivering the ultimate in playability and tonal versatility.

Classic Tonewoods and Construction

While the switching system opens up new sonic possibilities, the Custom 24-08 remains true to PRS's heritage with premium construction and tonewoods. The body blends a carved maple top with a resonant mahogany back for balanced warmth and articulation. The 25" scale length maple neck with Pattern Thin profile allows effortless playability across all 24 frets. You'll experience the same playing feel and trademark PRS "snap" that has made these guitars a favorite of countless virtuosos.

Dual Humbuckers With Eight Distinct Voicings

The hallmark of the Custom 24-08 is its set of dual 85/15 humbucking pickups, reconfigurable via a simple coil-tap switch system. At the flick of a mini-toggle, you can tap the humbuckers for single-coil tones, split the coils internally or engage both pickups in their full humbucking glory. In total, the Custom 24-08 gives you eight pickup voicings at your fingertips to craft a dizzying array of tones. Whether you need bright and snappy single-coil spank, a meaty humbucker growl or anything in between, it's all within reach.

Gen III Tremolo With Expressive Range

Contributing to the Custom 24-08's responsive, resonant character is PRS's patented Gen III tremolo bridge. With its low profile and stud-mounted design, the Gen III offers tuning stability to withstand aggressive whammy action while ringing sustain remains uncompromised. You can inject searing leads with dramatic dive bombs or use subtle vibrato for expressive phrasing without fighting the instrument. The tremolo tailpiece pairs with PRS's time-tested tuning machines for reliable tuning lock even after the wildest performances.
