This alongside the neck wood makes for an interesting/successful wood combination, with the mahogany supplying the bottom end warmth and the maple bringing out the tops and mids, alongside the slightly warmer tone of a rosewood fingerboard. The body is a combination of a bevelled maple top and quilted maple veneer, coupled with a mahogany back. The new inlays, as well as looking good made clear visual reference points on the fretboard. The large cutaway on the neck joint, and sculpted lower horn made things easier going up the higher end. This guitar really was set-up well, a low enough action to make things easy going but not so much that you start to get fret buzz, or chocking out when bending. The neck was very comfortable to play, coupled with the larger frets and low action made everything effortless. As the name would suggest, this is a 24 fret guitar with a 25” scale length and what PRS describe as a “Wide thin” neck shape. The neck is Maple adorned with a Rosewood fingerboard, and those 30 th anniversary bird inlays. The traditional headstock is fitted with PRS designed tuners, which offer great tuning stability and smoothness in use.
So far a great start, be sure to check out the accompanying video so you can hear the guitar for yourself, now let’s dig a little deeper. As well as stunning looks, this guitar also felt great, was a perfect weight, balanced well, with the contours and scooped cutaway making it all very comfortable. The finish, as you might expect from PRS was flawless throughout, the Anniversary bird inlays helping the overall look and giving you the sense that you are playing something a bit above the norm.
Ours was finished in Vintage Sunburst complete with Nickel hardware which made for a stunning looking guitar. The 30 th Anniversary Custom 24 brings a unique look to a classic instrument, with new inlays and a quilted maple veneer. The SE versions we've looked at have been, without exception, really high quality guitars with no corners cut. It might seem little different from the route that most guitar brands have followed in the past few decades but PRS has managed to avoid the pitfalls some manufacturers' sub-brands have occasionally fallen into. The Far Eastern produced SE line was established in 2001 with the goal of providing players with high quality, reliable instruments. The SE Custom 24 has become the most popular SE model in a diverse line-up of guitars from PRS. A lot! But we were also loaned the new 30 th Anniversary SE Custom 24 and that's what I'm taking a look at here. In the GI 32 we looked at the brand new S2 Standard 22 from PRS and we liked it.
