Player's Perspective
Here's another gorgeous offering from PRS's CORE collection of guitars. The custom color emerald smokeburst wrap finish over the highly figured flame maple 10-Top and hybrid hardware really help make this guitar look as wonderful as it sounds and feels. The dark green is even more vibrant in person without being bright. The wrap around burst finish also gives the guitar a darker and edgier vibe.
The majority of Custom 24's, these days, are coming with 85/15 pickups, and for good reason. These are a faithful recreation of the pickups that put Paul Reed Smith on the map. They sound vintage enough to get the job done if that's what you need but can also more than handle their own in more modern settings as well. They handle saturation and distortion with grace and ease. The notes are always full and articulate.
The pattern regular neck has a narrower nut width than the pattern thin, but an ever-so-slightly thicker neck from front to back. If you like having a little more substance to hold onto, you'll dig this. It's far from chunky and is still really fast to maneuver on. The neck is made even more perfect by the simply impeccable fretwork on this guitar. There's a very real thing that can happen when you pick up a guitar that is just so inspiring that it makes you a better player by not only being easier to play, but also by giving you more motivation to pick it up and play it every chance that you get. This is one of those special instruments!
