Essential Information About the PRS Custom 24 Aurora Borealis Guitar



  • The iconic PRS model: the Custom 24 is the brand's historic benchmark, here revisited in the 2025 version.

  • Immediate versatility: PRS DMO pickups + 5-position selector to cover everything from open clean tones to modern saturations.

  • "Performance" comfort: 24 frets, Thin neck profile, 10" radius for fast and precise playability.

  • High-end stability: patented PRS Gen III tremolo and Phase III locking tuners, ideal for playing hard without losing tuning.



A PRS Legend Reinvented: The Custom 24 DNA in the 2025 Version


A true cornerstone of PRS Guitars, the Custom 24 was the very first model presented by Paul Reed Smith to the public at the Winter NAMM show in 1985. Since then, it has established itself as the quintessential PRS, adopted by internationally renowned artists as well as touring musicians. This 2025 edition retains the original spirit while integrating current evolutions, such as the PRS Gen III vibrato and DMO pickups, designed to maximize openness, musicality, and definition.



For Which Guitarist and Styles?


The PRS Custom 24 Aurora Borealis is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a high-end electric capable of doing it all: rock, pop, fusion, funk, modern blues, prog, melodic metal. Its 2-pickup configuration with 5-position selector is perfect for switching between genres without changing guitars, while the 24 frets and Thin neck favor fast runs, solos, and playing high up on the neck.



The Sound


The solid mahogany body provides a warm foundation, rich in mids, with generous sustain. The carved violin-style maple top adds attack, precision, and extra definition, perfectly balancing the overall tone for sounds that are both full and clear. The PRS DMO (Dynamic, Musical, Open) pickups stand out with an "open" and vocal character: consistent lows, expressive mids, and present highs without harshness. Thanks to the volume, tone, and 5-position selector, you get a coherent palette across the entire spectrum, ideal for both stage and studio.



Recommended Compatible Accessories


The guitar is strung with 10-46 gauge strings; you can stick with this gauge to maintain the original balance (comfort, tension, vibrato response). A set of 10-46 electric strings is therefore a safe choice for regular maintenance.
