PRS Ce24 SH Faded Gray Black Purple Burst

Essential Information About the PRS CE24 SH Faded Gray Black Purple Burst Guitar

• PRS "bolt-on" spirit + semi-hollow body: sharp attack, generous sustain, and more airy resonance thanks to the "F" soundhole.


• Two PRS 85/15 humbuckers: modern definition, solid lows, and extended highs, ideal for switching from precise clean to powerful drive.


• 6 sounds in one gesture: push/pull tone for coil split + 3-position selector to cover a wide range (rock, pop, funk, fusion).


• Fast comfort: Pattern Thin neck, 24 frets, and satin nitro finish on the back of the neck for a smooth feel.

An iconic CE, revisited in Semi-Hollow version

Originally introduced in 1988, the CE established itself as the PRS with the most "direct" character thanks to its bolt-on neck construction. This CE 24 SH (Semi-Hollow) retains the brand's Bolt-On DNA while adding a more resonant and dynamic dimension with its semi-hollow body, for a livelier feel at both low and high volumes.

For which guitarists and styles?

The PRS CE24 SH is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists who want a high-end versatile electric guitar, capable of performing on stage as well as in the studio. Its modern ergonomics and 24 frets make it very comfortable in rock, pop, modern blues, fusion, and even funk thanks to the snappier split sounds.

The sound

The combination of maple top and mahogany back provides a very effective balance: clear attack, singing mids, and well-controlled lows. The semi-hollow construction adds air and a more "open" response, particularly pleasant in clean and crunch tones. The PRS 85/15 pickups deliver remarkable clarity and a wide spectrum; with the push/pull, you switch from full, solid humbuckers to finer, more articulated textures, ideal for precise rhythms.

Recommended compatible accessories

To stay as close as possible to the original specifications, choose an electric string set with a 10-46 gauge (original reference: PRS Signature 10-46).
