Player's Perspective
A guitar like this really gets the musical ideas flowing. The tone is everything you'd expect from PRS, which means that this guitar doesn't sound quite like any other. The tone is dynamic and rich, and the piezo offers a shimmering acoustic sound that makes it hard to believe this is a solidbody. The pickups in this are based off of the original pickups that took guitar players by storm when Paul Reed Smith began pumping out guitars in Maryland in 1985. They are a nod to vintage sounds while keeping a bit more of a modern studio-like refinement to them. Sonically they allow you to get vintage sounds while still being able to comfortably navigate through some more modern, higher gain tones. They are crystal clear and have awesome punch and definition.
Along with the piezo in this bad boy, you can really dial in a ton of very musical and very usable sounds. The feel is that characteristic PRS feel - effortless, comfortable, and fast. Perfect for the gig where or recording session when you want to work efficiently and not constantly switch guitars. You can also achieve a very cool doubling effect by playing both the piezo and magnetic pickups at the same time through two different amps. This is an age-old recording trick used to fatten and punch up guitar tracks.
Along with sounding great and playing like a dream, this one's a real looker too.
Special Features
The Custom 24 Piezo has two output jacks, allowing guitarists to plug into their favorite electric or acoustic guitar amp or DI into a soundboard. By utilizing the separate blend control, the tone of the 85/15 pickups can also be combined with the piezo acoustic sounds through a single output. With a nearly infinite range of tones and the added versatility and reliability of PRS’s proprietary tremolo bridge, the Custom 24 Piezo is a perfect “go-to” guitar for players of all kinds.
