The One That Started It All
The Custom 24 is the original PRS. Since its introduction, it has offered a unique option for serious players and defined PRS tone and playability. We have had a lot of them here at Truetone, including some seriously impressive 10 Top versions, but this one stands out as something special.
This Custom 24 10 Top is in a vibrant finish called Yellow Tiger. It looks stunning over the flame maple top – and as great as these photos look, it’s even more impressive in person. Of course, it’s not just about looks. The guitar plays and sounds amazing, just as you’d expect. This one is a great example of what PRS can do.
Played by internationally touring artists, gigging musicians, and aspiring players, the Custom 24 features a figured maple top and mahogany back with a 24-fret, 25 scale length mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard. It’s a Pattern Thin neck carve, so it’s slim, fast and super comfortable.
Anchored by PRSs patented Gen III tremolo and Phase III tuners with wing buttons the Custom 24 is known for its playability, versatility, and tuning stability.
The Custom 24 is outfitted with PRS DMO treble and bass pickups with volume and tone controls and a 5-way blade switch. DMO (Dynamic, Musical, Open) pickups were personally designed by Paul Reed Smith and the PRS New Products Engineering team. From our own hands-on research into coveted vintage pickup models to advancements in signal analyzation and tuning technology, these pickups incorporate every detail of pickup knowledge PRS has gained in recent years of R&D.
PRS DMO pickups have a wide open sound with vocal character, meaning they deliver clear, pleasant-sounding tones across a wide range of frequencies (bass to treble) in each pickup.
The Custom 24 is the quintessential PRS guitar. This iconic instrument was the first model that Paul Reed Smith brought to the public at PRS Guitars first Winter NAMM show in 1985 and has been a top seller ever since.
