The Custom 24 Piezo at the Heart of PRS DNA
An iconic model of the brand, the Custom 24 embodies the versatility and exemplary finish dear to PRS. This Piezo version adds a credible "acoustic" voice without sacrificing the precise and singing electric punch. The 2025 edition pushes flexibility further for both stage and studio, featuring simple routing and intuitive controls.
Who Is It For and Which Styles?
From demanding intermediates to professionals, it establishes itself as a top-tier tool. It excels in pop, rock, fusion, prog, melodic metal, funk, and contemporary music, thanks to the instant switch from bright clean to silky overdrive, or to a natural "acoustic" tone for arpeggios and accompaniment.
Sound
The PRS DMO humbuckers deliver an open and articulate tone, with a wideband response, sharp attacks, and generous sustain. The 5-position selector, combined with responsive volume and tone knobs, offers subtle nuances ranging from tight rhythms to singing leads.
The LR Baggs/PRS piezo system, controlled by a 3-position selector and a blend control, provides detailed and precise "acoustic" timbres. The mahogany/maple combination enhances projection and clarity, while the Gen III vibrato preserves intonation and definition, even under heavy use.
