help PRS Custom 24 FAQ

What makes the PRS Custom 24 different from a Custom 22?

The Custom 24 has 24 frets, while the Custom 22 has 22 frets and a slightly different pickup position. PRS launched the Custom 24 at its 1985 debut, so it is one of the company's defining models.

Does the PRS Custom 24 use HFS pickups?

Some older Custom 24 models used the HFS bridge and Vintage Bass neck pickup set. Many modern Core Custom 24 guitars use PRS 85/15 pickups, so the exact pickup set depends on the year and series.

What scale length does a PRS Custom 24 use?

A PRS Custom 24 uses a 25-inch scale length, sitting between the common Fender 25.5-inch and Gibson 24.75-inch feel. That middle ground is part of why players use it for both clean lead work and heavier rock tones.

Is the SE Custom 24 the same as the Core Custom 24?

No. The SE Custom 24 is the lower-priced import version, while the Core Custom 24 is made in the United States at PRS's Maryland factory. Both keep the 24-fret double-cut layout, but woods, hardware, pickups, and finish work differ.
