With the PRS Wood Library Custom 24 Charcoal Cherry Burst #18 249884 the noble guitar builder from Stevensville, Maryland presents a very special version of his most successful electric guitar, which has a unique wood combination thanks to the possibilities of the PRS Wood Library program. The body is made of light mahogany with a solid Arist Grade maple top, while the neck is made of mahogany. In addition, PRS 58/15 humbuckers on the amplifier provide a wide range of modern sound.
For the construction of the PRS Wood Library Custom 24 Charcoal Cherry Burst on selected woods of the highest quality. Carefully selected mahogany is used for the body, which impresses with its low weight and characterizes the sound with a warm middle spectrum, while the intense grain of the massive Artist Grade Riegelahorn top is brought to life by the Charcoal Cherry Burst. The neck is made of intensively flamed curly maple with a Ziricote fingerboard and fits comfortably in the slim "Pattern Thin" profile, so that any playing technique can be easily transferred between the 24 frets.
The PRS Wood Library Custom 24 uses a PRS 58/15 bass humbucker in the neck position and a PRS 58/15 treble humbucker on the bridge. Designed by Paul Reed Smith himself, these pickups reflect the legendary sound of the best pickups from the golden era of the electric guitar. The pickups convince with a remarkably clear sound, whose warm singing mids and silky highs make every played note shine, both in the clean and overdrive channel. With the 5-way blade switch, the humbucker coils can also be called up in different combinations, so that several sound nuances are available in the guitar sound.

On the body side, the strings are supported by the proven PRS tremolo, which convinces with smooth handling and high functionality and offers a pleasant support thanks to rounded edges of the hand. At the headstock the strings run with straight tension from the saddle to the PRS Phase III locking mechanisms. These guarantee a high tuning stability even with frequent use of vibrato and make string changes much easier. The PRS Custom 24 is also delivered in a noble PRS case, which offers the electric guitar the best possible protection during transport.
