PRS Custom 24-08 – Black Rainbow Holoflake Natural Back
The PRS Custom 24 is the model that defined the PRS brand – an iconic instrument since 1985. The Custom 24-08 builds on that legacy, combining classic specifications with modern flexibility. The result is an electric guitar that feels equally at home in the studio and on stage, offering a wide range of usable tones.
The foundation is familiar: flamed maple top, mahogany body and neck, 24 frets, and a 25” scale length. Together with the PRS patented Gen III tremolo and Phase III tuners, you get outstanding stability, precision, and playability. What elevates the Custom 24-08 even further is the TCI pickups and dual mini-toggle switches – a powerful combination for players who want detailed control over their sound.
The TCI pickups deliver a full, musical tone with clear inspiration from both single-coil and soapbar pickups. The two EQ switches act as finely tuned high-pass filters when engaged, tightening the low end and allowing high frequencies to shine through for increased clarity and definition. This provides expanded tonal options without compromising the guitar’s natural character.
