PRS Ce24 SH Faded Blue Smokeburst

Essential Information About the PRS CE24 Semi-Hollow Guitar "Faded Blue Smokeburst"

• Semi-hollow format: the punch of a PRS bolt-on with a more "airy" resonance thanks to the F-hole.


• PRS signature woods: carved maple top on a mahogany body, bolt-on maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard.


• PRS 85/15 pickups: precision, balance, and a wide response range in both lows and highs.


• 6 usable tones: 3-position selector + push/pull tone for coil splitting.

CE24 Semi-Hollow: The Custom 24 DNA in a bolt-on version, with a touch of air

Within the PRS range, the CE24 stands out with its bolt-on neck that delivers a crisp attack and a more direct grain, while maintaining the brand's hallmarks (ergonomics, 24 frets, carved maple top). This Semi-Hollow version takes the concept further: the addition of the chamber and F-hole enriches the acoustic feel, slightly softens the touch, and adds a more open dimension to the tone, without losing the sustain and stability of a solid body.

For which guitarists and styles?

The PRS CE24 Semi-Hollow is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a versatile, expressive, and instantly inspiring electric guitar. Thanks to the 85/15 humbuckers + split combo, it easily covers modern rock, pop/indie, funk in split sounds, fusion, gritty blues, and even cleaner styles where the semi-hollow body provides nice breathing room. The Thin profile and nitro satin neck finish promote fast and comfortable playing, ideal for lead as well as nuanced rhythm parts.

The sound

The combination of maple top / mahogany body delivers the classic PRS tone: clear attacks, present mids, and generous sustain. The bolt-on maple neck enhances precision and definition, while the rosewood fingerboard adds a touch of warmth in the upper mids. The semi-hollow format brings extra breadth, a more "alive" feel, and airier harmonics, especially appreciated in clean and crunch tones. The PRS 85/15 pickups provide excellent note clarity; and with the push/pull, you can easily switch from full humbucker sounds to thinner, snappier textures, all while maintaining true level and dynamic coherence.

Recommended compatible accessories

To stay as close as possible to the original feel, favor a 10-46 gauge string set (the same as the factory setup). Picks of various thicknesses can also help exploit the full palette, from precise funky playing to more aggressive rock attacks.
