PRSÂ SE Custom 24-08 Quilt Top Electric Guitar – Lake Blue
With the PRS SE Custom 24-08 Quilt Top Electric Guitar – Lake Blue, PRS brings one of their most sonically versatile guitars to their most affordable line of instruments. It’s loaded with a pair of TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) humbucking pickups and advanced switching options to yield every type of tone a modern guitarist could ask for. Two mini toggle switches serve as coil taps for each pickup, allowing you to instantly switch between fat humbucking tones and chiming single-coil tones — there’s even a “dual single-coil” mode unique to this model. Complete with PRS’s Wide Thin neck profile for comfortably fast playability, this PRS SE Custom 24-08 offers a lifetime of musical exploration that’s yours for the taking.
PRS-designed 85/15 “S” humbucking pickups
PRS 85/15 “S” pickups balance vintage character with modern clarity to deliver the sweet — yet articulate — sound and rich harmonic overtones of vintage humbuckers. Featuring a powerful bridge pickup and neck pickup with the perfect amount of brightness, the 85/15 “S” set packs a real sonic punch, from chimey cleans to fire-breathing heat. The pickups are treated to PRS’s TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) tuning, which means the team at PRS has used their years of know-how to sculpt the sound to be perfect to their ears. The end result is a very musical pickup that’s true to its lineage, but updated for the modern player.
Advanced switching for eight distinct tones
The “-08” in this model’s moniker refers to the eight distinct tones you can conjure. With the 3-way blade switch you can access the pickup positions you’d expect from a dual-humbucker guitar — neck only, neck plus bridge, and bridge only. The two mini-toggle switches allow you to explore five more combinations — each switch engages a coil tap for each pickup, giving you access to snappy, articulate single-coil tones.
PRS quality in every guitar
All Paul Reed Smith guitars are designed for performance right out of the case, and the SE Custom 24-08 is no exception. Constructed from high-quality tonewoods and components, PRS instruments carry on a commitment to quality that’s been the brand’s hallmark since 1985, when Paul Smith began crafting guitars for some of the most elite players in the world. In fact, you’ll often see a PRS SE in the touring rigs of the most well-respected PRS artists in the world.
