The One That Started It All
The Custom 24 is the original PRS. Since its introduction, it has offered a unique option for serious players and defined PRS tone and playability.
Played by internationally touring artists, gigging musicians, and aspiring players, the Custom 24 features a figured maple top and mahogany back with a 24-fret, 25” scale length mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard. Anchored by PRS’s patented Gen III tremolo and Phase III tuners with wing buttons the Custom 24 is known for its playability, versatility, and tuning stability.
The Custom 24 is outfitted with PRS DMO treble and bass pickups with volume and tone controls and a 5-way blade switch. DMO (Dynamic, Musical, Open) pickups were personally designed by Paul Reed Smith and the PRS New Products Engineering team. From our own hands-on research into coveted vintage pickup models to advancements in signal analyzation and “tuning” technology, these pickups incorporate every detail of pickup knowledge PRS has gained in recent years of R&D.
PRS DMO pickups have a “wide open” sound with vocal character, meaning they deliver clear, pleasant-sounding tones across a wide range of frequencies (bass to treble) in each pickup.
The Custom 24 is the quintessential PRS guitar. This iconic instrument was the first model that Paul Reed Smith brought to the public at PRS Guitars’ first Winter NAMM show in 1985 and has been a top seller ever since. One of our PRS favorites here at Northeast Music Center!
PRS Custom 24 Limited Edition
Private Stock Color – Faded Indigo over Quilted Maple
Some guitars announce themselves with bold specifications. Others leave a lasting impression through their presence. This PRS Custom 24 belongs firmly in the latter category.
Finished in the stunning Private Stock Color Faded Indigo over an exceptional quilted maple top, this Limited Edition brings one of PRS's most captivating finishes to the celebrated Core Series. The translucent indigo hue reveals extraordinary depth within the maple, shifting effortlessly from rich sapphire tones to deep midnight blues as the light moves across its carved surface. It's elegant, sophisticated, and unmistakably PRS.
The Custom 24 has been the cornerstone of the PRS lineup since the beginning, and the Semi-Hollow version adds another dimension to an already legendary platform. The added resonance and harmonic complexity complement the instrument's renowned clarity, sustain, and versatility, creating a guitar that feels equally at home in the studio, on stage, or simply in the hands of someone who appreciates exceptional craftsmanship.
What makes this Limited Edition particularly compelling is its balance of exclusivity and familiarity. This is not a Private Stock instrument—it is a Core Series Custom 24 Semi-Hollow enhanced with a finish selected from the PRS Private Stock color palette. For many PRS enthusiasts, that combination represents the best of both worlds: the proven performance and consistency of the Core lineup paired with the visual artistry typically associated with PRS's most exclusive offerings.
After 31 years, Jacks Northeast Music Center, as a PRS Signature Dealer, we've had the privilege of watching the evolution of the PRS brand through countless Core models, Artist Packages, Wood Library runs, and Limited Editions. One thing has remained remarkably consistent throughout those years: the guitars collectors and players, continue to seek aren't always the rarest; they're the ones that capture a special moment in PRS history and inovation through a unique combination of beauty, craftsmanship, and timeless appeal.
This Limited Edition is exactly that kind of guitar.
The Faded Indigo finish transforms an already exceptional instrument into something that immediately stands apart. The dramatic quilted maple, the graceful elegance of the semi-hollow construction, and the unmistakable silhouette of the Custom 24 come together in a way that feels both familiar and refreshingly distinctive. It's the kind of instrument that invites you to stop, look a little longer, and then lose yourself in the experience of playing it.
At our dealership, we've always believed that the finest guitars are those that continue to inspire long after the excitement of opening the case has passed. This PRS Custom 24 Semi-Hollow Limited Edition embodies that philosophy beautifully. It delivers everything players have come to expect from one of the world's most respected electric guitars while offering an exclusive visual identity that will remain every bit as compelling years from now.
Some Limited Editions come and go. Others become part of the conversation whenever PRS enthusiasts gather to talk about memorable releases. We believe this Faded Indigo Custom 24 Semi-Hollow has all the qualities to become one of those guitars—an instrument defined not by excess, but by exceptional taste, enduring craftsmanship, and the quiet confidence that has always set PRS apart.
