PRS CE-24 Special Electric Guitar - Purple Leopard Flame Maple | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The PRS CE-24 Special in Purple Leopard finish represents a stunning intersection of premium craftsmanship and exceptional tonal versatility. This Sprayer's Choice instrument features a select flame maple top paired with PRS's renowned 85-15 TCI pickup configuration, delivering rich harmonic complexity and dynamic response. Perfect for intermediate to professional players seeking a distinctive, stage-ready instrument with unparalleled visual appeal.
Product Overview
This CE-24 Special showcases a premium flame maple select top over a resonant mahogany back, finished in a truly unique Purple Leopard design with subtle sparkles that catch the light from every angle. The Sprayer's Choice designation means this guitar was hand-selected by PRS's master painter as their personal favorite from the production run, making it an exceptionally rare find. The black satin maple neck features PRS's Pattern Thin carve, offering comfortable playability across all registers while maintaining the structural integrity needed for aggressive playing styles.
The East Indian rosewood fretboard is adorned with PRS's signature bird inlays, providing both visual elegance and familiar navigation points. The bolt-on construction delivers the snap and articulation that made the CE series famous, while the mahogany body adds warmth and sustain to balance the bright maple characteristics. At just 7.87 pounds, this guitar offers extended playing comfort without sacrificing tone or resonance.
The three-pickup configuration combines 85-15 TCI humbuckers in the bridge and neck positions with an NS-01 middle pickup, providing everything from glassy clean tones to high-gain aggression. The PRS tremolo system maintains tuning stability while allowing expressive vibrato techniques, and the nickel hardware complements the Purple Leopard finish beautifully.
