The PRS SE Custom 24 Limited Edition lets you experience iconic Paul Reed Smith style and tone in an affordable package. The PRS Custom 24 is a legend in its own right, boasting incredible sonic versatility that jazz cats and metalheads have each come to embrace. Built for musicians seeking performance and reliability, this SE model features the brand’s hallmark bird inlays and signature aesthetics, complete with 85/15 “S” pickups for articulate tones across genres. Striking Ruby and Blue Fade finishes are only around for a limited time, marking this a special addition to the PRS SE Custom 24 lineup.

PRS SE Custom 24 Limited-Edition Finishes

Iconic Style in Limited-Edition Finishes

Sporting a maple top, mahogany back and one of two exclusive finishes, the SE Custom 24 Limited Edition has undeniable PRS style. Its solidbody shape and distinctive headstock silhouette are directly taken from the flagship USA Custom 24 model that first debuted in 1985. The bird inlays on an unbound rosewood fingerboard complete the look that’s uniquely associated with Paul Reed Smith guitars, and translucent finishes showcase the maple cap’s flame figure, lending each guitar an expressive visual character. Whether on stage or displayed in your home, the SE Custom 24 Limited Edition is a stunning instrument.

PRS SE Custom 24 Pickups

85/15 “S” Pickups Deliver Versatile Tones

The SE Custom 24 Limited Edition is equipped with 85/15 “S” humbuckers: proprietary PRS pickups known for articulation and balanced output. Roll back the volume or tone knobs and you’ll get warm, rounded sounds perfect for blues and classic rock, or dial the controls up for increased output and definition that's ready for hard rock and metal. The standard 3-way blade switch puts a wide tonal palette at your fingertips, made even more colorful by push-pull coil tapping on the tone knob. No matter the genre, the PRS SE Custom 24 is ready for the ride.

PRS SE Custom 24 Wide Thin Neck

Fast, Comfortable Wide Thin Neck Profile

The SE Custom 24 Limited Edition features the PRS Wide Thin neck profile—a comfortable shape suited for all playing styles. With a nut width of 1-11/16", string spacing is ideal for complex chords and single-note runs, while the slim, uniform profile lets you play fast leads without wrist fatigue. Plus, the 10" radius is an ideal medium between too flat, or too round—gracefully explore extended chord voicings, or dance on the frets with blistering speed. The signature PRS Wide Thin carve is the epitome of universal comfort.

PRS SE Custom 24 Roadworthy Construction

Roadworthy and Record-Ready

Built to exacting PRS standards, the SE Custom 24 Limited Edition is a workhorse guitar ready for the stage and studio. It’s crafted from high-quality tonewoods and components, including a PRS double-acting truss rod for precise neck adjustment and stability. Thanks to top-notch design and build techniques, you’ll notice how the SE Custom 24 Limited Edition sounds full and resonant unplugged, and still handles high gain without feedback. It's a gig-ready guitar that punches well above its price point.

If you’re looking for an affordable instrument with the tone, playability and unfaltering reputation of a PRS, the SE Custom 24 Limited Edition delivers. With its blend of performance, comfort and style, this axe allows you to achieve your musical vision without breaking the bank. Gorgeous Ruby and Blue Fade finishes won’t be here for long, so drop in your local Guitar Center and see what makes the PRS SE Custom 24 such a beautifully playing guitar.

    I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend who is a bit of a guitar enthusiast. The photos do not do this guitar justice and it sounds better than $1,000+ Strats he has played. Really happy with my purchase, and will keep my eyes peeled for more gorgeous PRSs' in the future!

    I'm a sucker for PRS products (and Gibson and Fender also) I have a PRS SE Custom 24 30th Anniversary - so I already know it's a great guitar (as well as my Silver Sky and Zach Myers) When it came in…. I simply could not restrain myself (I'm weak like that) 😆

    Will the PRS SE Custom 24 Limited-Ruby come directly from the PRS factory? Will it be a brand new guitar already setup? What is the best way to order - to Guitar Center or directly to me? How do I return the guitar if necessary?

    There is a picture of a bag included with the other pictures of the guitar but I didn't see anywhere if it is included or not. Is it?
