PRS Custom 24 Pattern Thin 10 Top Electric Guitar - Black Gold Burst
The One That Started It All
The PRS Custom 24 is the iconic model that launched Paul Reed Smith Guitars at the 1985 Winter NAMM Show and has remained a top seller ever since. Favored by world-class touring artists, session pros, and dedicated players, the Custom 24 delivers legendary PRS tone, playability, and stunning aesthetics.
This 2024 model features the upgraded PRS Phase III Locking Tuners with lightweight Wing buttons, enhancing sustain and resonance while echoing PRS’s signature 12th-fret bird wingspan design. The carved figured maple 10 Top in Black Gold Burst sits atop a warm, resonant mahogany body, paired with a Pattern Thin mahogany neck and a smooth rosewood fretboard with iconic bird inlays.
The PRS 85/15 pickups—personally designed by Paul Reed Smith—offer remarkable clarity with an extended high and low end, perfectly paired with the PRS Gen III tremolo for stability and expressive performance.
