Description
The PRS SE Custom 24 Semi-Hollow Piezo is a highly sophisticated and incredibly versatile instrument. The Custom 24 is the original design first introduced by PRS in 1985 as a solidbody guitar with maple top, mahogany back, dual humbuckers, and the patented PRS tremolo. This semi-hollow version adds natural resonance and a vibrant, organic tone.
The humbuckers in this model are PRS 85/15 “S” pickups, which can be tapped via the push/pull tone control for more sounds. The addition of the LR Baggs/PRS Piezo system furthers the instrument’s versatility by offering electric and acoustic tones in one guitar. The PRS SE Custom 24 Semi-Hollow Piezo is designed with two discrete volume controls (magnetics and piezo) and output jacks (mix/piezo and magnetics). Players can plug into the “Mix/Piezo” jack and use the individual volume controls to blend the 85/15 “S” pickups with the piezo’s acoustic tones. Alternatively, players can plug into the jacks separately, so the guitar can run magnetic pickups into an amp and run the piezo through an acoustic amp or DI into the soundboard. When using the magnetic output jack in isolation, the piezo battery is bypassed completely, acting as a failsafe (in this scenario, the magnetic pickups still work even if the piezo battery has run out of juice).
Additional details include a matching headstock veneer, headstock and fretboard binding, and lampshade knobs. With nearly infinite tones and roadworthy reliability, the PRS SE Custom 24 Semi-Hollow Piezo is a modern classic that looks and feels as good as it sounds.
