Essential Information About the PRS SE Custom 24 "Floyd" Guitar
- Floyd Rose 1000 vibrato with locking nut for outstanding tuning stability, even during "dive bombs."
- Two clear and extended PRS 85/15 "S" humbuckers, with push/pull coil-splitting.
- 24 frets, 25" / 635 mm scale length, and a fast Wide Thin neck for modern playing.
- Mahogany body, "Shallow Violin" carved maple top, and flamed maple veneer for the signature PRS look.
The Modern Descendant of the Iconic PRS Model
Inspired by the legendary Custom 24, this SE "Floyd" version transfers PRS DNA onto a stage-ready platform. The addition of the Floyd Rose 1000 expands the expressive palette without compromising sustain and tuning accuracy. It features the brand?s hallmarks: refined ergonomics, impeccable finishes, and versatile electronics designed to go from crystalline clean tones to the densest saturation.
For Which Guitarist and Styles?
Ideal for intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a reliable, precise, and expressive electric guitar. It excels in rock, hard rock, and metal thanks to the locking vibrato and powerful humbuckers, while remaining convincing in pop or fusion through coil-splitting for snappier, more articulate sounds.
The Sound
The PRS 85/15 "S" humbuckers deliver a wide spectrum: firm lows, present mids, and detailed highs. The 3-position selector switch covers neck, bridge, and middle positions, while the push/pull tone potentiometer splits the coils for single-coil-like textures. The mahogany/maple combination provides warmth and attack, the set-neck and 25" scale length ensure sustain and balanced tension. The low-profile Floyd Rose 1000 adds controlled brightness and extreme expressiveness without tuning drift.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain original comfort and stability, choose a 9-42 electric guitar string set (factory setup), a sturdy strap with secure locks, a clip-on tuner, and a guitar stand (floor or wall). The Gig Bag is included for transport.
