PRS SE Custom 24 Electric Guitar - Quilted Black Gold Sunburst | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The PRS SE Custom 24 solidbody electric guitar delivers the legendary tone, playability, and stunning aesthetics of PRS's flagship Custom line at an accessible price point. This 6-string features a traditional violin-style body carve with a quilted maple veneer top over a resonant mahogany body, creating the visual impact and tonal foundation that has made the Custom 24 a studio and stage favorite for decades. Equipped with versatile 85/15 "S" humbuckers and coil-splitting capabilities, this guitar serves intermediate to professional players across rock, metal, jazz, and blues genres with equal authority.
Product Overview
The SE Custom 24's construction showcases a mahogany body topped with a stunning quilted maple veneer, finished in a dramatic Black Gold Sunburst gloss that highlights the quilted figure. This tonewood combination provides the punchy midrange and sustain mahogany is celebrated for, while the maple top adds brightness and note definition. The traditional violin carve mirrors the contouring found on higher-tier Custom 24 models, enhancing both comfort and resonance.
The set-neck design features a maple neck with the Pattern Thin profile, offering fast, comfortable playability that suits technical players and those who favor speed-oriented playing styles. The ebony fingerboard provides a smooth, glassy playing surface with a versatile 10-inch radius that balances comfortable chording with effortless string bending. With 24 nickel frets spanning a 25-inch scale length, players gain access to two full octaves and extended upper register access for soaring lead work.
The 85/15 "S" humbuckers deliver PRS's signature balanced tone with rich harmonic content and excellent clarity. A push-pull tone control activates coil-split mode, transforming the humbuckers into articulate single-coils for clean, chimey tones. The PRS-designed tremolo system maintains tuning stability even under aggressive use, while PRS-designed 18:1 ratio tuners provide precise tuning adjustments and reliable pitch stability.

Key Features
Quilted Maple Top with Violin Carve
