Born from the Custom 24 that shaped PRS?s DNA, this 2025 Piezo version sits at the top of the Core USA line. It combines the mahogany/carved maple pairing with an integrated piezo system developed jointly by LR Baggs and PRS, and PRS DMO pickups with an open and expressive voice. The "Black Gold Wraparound Burst" finish highlights the elegant curves and the brand?s iconic carved top.
Designed for demanding guitarists (intermediate to professional), it effortlessly covers rock, pop, funk, fusion, prog, and modern metal. The 24-fret ergonomics, "Thin" neck profile, 25" / 635 mm scale length, and 10" / 254 mm radius ensure speed, precision, and comfort across the entire range, both live and in the studio.
The PRS DMO humbuckers offer a wide spectrum: sharp attacks, singing mids, and silky highs. The 5-way selector, supported by volume and tone controls, delivers colors ranging from punchy rhythms to smooth leads with long sustain. The LR Baggs/PRS piezo, controlled by a 3-position selector and a "Blend" control, provides detailed acoustic timbres that can be isolated or blended with the magnetic pickups. The mahogany/maple recipe enhances warmth, articulation, and projection, while the PRS Gen III vibrato optimizes contact and tuning stability.
Choose a set of nickel roundwound strings with a gauge of 10?46 (original standard). To utilize both circuits, use two quality 6.35 mm mono jack cables (or a single cable if mixing via the "Blend"). Add a comfortable strap and a solidbody-compatible stand to secure the instrument on stage and at home.
