PRS S2 Custom 24-08 Poplar Burl Limited - Black Gold Burst
The PRS S2 Custom 24-08 with a poplar burl top is a limited-edition take on PRS’s versatile 24-fret platform, now available at No Limit Guitar Co in Idaho Falls. Paul’s Guitar TCI pickups deliver rich, balanced humbucker tone, while the striking burl top under a Black Gold Burst satin finish gives it a look all its own. It’s a USA-made guitar for intermediate players and working musicians who want premium style and sound.
Product Overview
A poplar burl top crowns the mahogany body, with swirling, organic figure that makes every guitar unique. The Black Gold Burst satin finish draws the eye to the gold center of the burl, framed by darker edges. Nickel hardware completes the look, and this example weighs 7.2 lbs.
The set-in mahogany neck uses PRS’s Pattern Thin carve for a slim, fast feel. Its rosewood fretboard has bird inlays, a 10" radius, and 24 frets on a 25" scale. The 1.6875" nut width gives comfortable spacing for both chords and lead work.
This guitar is loaded with Paul’s Guitar TCI treble and bass humbuckers along with matching electronics. TCI (“Tuned Capacitance and Inductance”) pickups are voiced for clear highs, a strong midrange, and full lows. A PRS tremolo adds expressive vibrato for bends and shimmer.
Ideal For
- Rock and blues players who want articulate humbuckers with a vintage-leaning voice
- Guitarists who like the comfort and reach of a 24-fret, Pattern Thin neck
- Players drawn to unique, natural wood figure and a one-of-a-kind look
