The PRS SE CE24 is a fusion of elegance and innovation, combining the Custom 24 series with a bolt-on-neck design. Its maple-veneer-topped mahogany body delivers rich sustain, exceptional clarity, and vintage warmth. Featuring a robust maple Wide Thin neck and rosewood fingerboard, it ensures a crisp attack and well-defined trebles, complementing the 85/15 “S” humbuckers. With lightning-fast response, these pickups offer versatile tones in humbucking and single-coil modes. The guitar provides an unrestrained playing experience with a sleek rosewood-capped maple neck, 10-inch fretboard radius, and Wide Thin carve for comfort and speed.
Since 1988, the CE series has been PRS’s flagship bolt-on electric guitar line, featuring a 4-bolt maple neck that transforms tonal character with a sharper attack. This model offers a unique blend of tradition and innovation, featuring a mahogany body with flame maple veneer for warmth and high-end chime. The PRS 85/15 “S” pickups, coupled with split-coil switching, provide a broad range of vintage-style humbucking tones and shimmering single-coil sounds. With rock-solid PRS-designed tuners and a patented tremolo system, the SE CE24 embodies PRS’s commitment to excellence.
PRS CE: Bolt-On Brilliance Since 1988
A part of PRS's premier line of bolt-on electric guitars since 1988, the SE CE24 stands out for its bolt-on brilliance. Diverging from the typical mahogany set-neck construction, the sturdy 4-bolt maple neck transforms the guitar's tonal landscape. This design choice introduces a sharper attack and a percussive snap to the notes, providing a distinctive sonic character within the PRS lineup.
PRS-designed 85/15 "S" Humbucking Pickups
The SE CE24 features Paul Reed Smith-designed 85/15 "S" humbucking pickups, combining vintage warmth with modern versatility. These pickups offer an impressive range of tones, from warm humbucking sounds to detailed single-coil tones, ensuring clarity and definition. They closely capture the essence of the US-made versions found in PRS's solidbody electric guitars.
Lightning-Fast Response and Playability
Crafted for an unrestrained playing experience, the SE CE24 boasts a lightning-fast response. The maple Wide Thin bolt-on neck, complemented by a sleek rosewood fingerboard with a 10-inch radius, allows for nimble string-to-string playing and wide bends. The neck's famed Wide Thin carve strikes a balance between comfort and speed, facilitating effortless movement across the frets.
Classic Aesthetics and Rock-Solid Hardware
The SE CE24's mahogany body with a flame maple veneer top not only delivers a warm tonal foundation but also imparts a touch of high-end chime to the notes. The guitar is equipped with rock-solid PRS-designed tuners and a PRS patented tremolo, ensuring stable tuning and expressive control over bends and flutters. The iconic PRS "Birds" inlays add a touch of visual sophistication to the instrument.
