A Historic Reference: The PRS Custom 24 at the Heart of the Range

First introduced to the public in 1985 at Winter NAMM, the Custom 24 has become the PRS signature model. The 2025 version continues this legacy with high-end construction and modern updates, including the patented PRS Gen III vibrato and the new DMO (Dynamic, Musical, Open) pickups, designed to deliver a rich and inspiring response regardless of pickup position.

For Which Guitarist and Styles?

Built for intermediate to expert guitarists, the PRS Custom 24 is a natural choice if you're looking for a premium electric guitar capable of handling various contexts: pop, rock, fusion, funk, prog, modern metal, or studio sessions. Its ergonomics (24 frets, Thin neck) favor fast runs, precise bends, and solos high up the neck, while remaining comfortable for rhythm playing.

The Sound

The combination of a mahogany body and a carved maple top delivers a very PRS-balanced tone: rich mids, solid low-end foundation, and a sharper attack with clear definition. The DMO humbuckers enhance this versatility with an open and articulate output, ideal for letting chords breathe as well as carrying a singing lead. The 5-position selector multiplies tonal colors, and the PRS Gen III vibrato offers a smooth feel and precise expression, from subtle vibrato to more pronounced effects.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

This Custom 24 comes factory-strung with 10-46 gauge strings: you can stick with this gauge to maintain balanced playability and tension. It is delivered with a case, convenient for transport and daily protection.
