PRS Guitars – Uncompromised Quality, Playability and Beauty
The PRS SE Custom 24-08 keeps all the foundational specs of the PRS Custom 24, the iconic PRS guitar which started it all back in 1985, while taking the Custom platform to new sonic territories. Like the American-made Core Series guitars, the SE Custom 24-08 features two mini-toggle coil tap switches that individually split the humbuckers into true single coils for a total of eight pickups configurations. Classic design elements include a maple top, mahogany back, rosewood fretboard, 24 frets, 25” scale length, bird inlays, signature headstock logo, and PRS patented tremolo.
The PRS SE Custom 24-08 is equipped with a pair of versatile TCI “S” humbucking pickups. These pickups are treated to PRS’s TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) tuning which the team at PRS have engineered to produce a superb sound. The end result is a very musical pickup that’s true to its lineage, but updated for the modern player.
The “-08” in this model’s moniker refers to the eight distinct tones you can create. With the 3-way blade switch you can access the pickup positions you’d expect from a dual-humbucker guitar — neck only, neck plus bridge, and bridge only. The two mini-toggle switches allow you to explore five more combinations — each switch engages a coil tap for each pickup, giving you access to snappy, articulate single-coil tones.
