My wife gave me one of these last year in charcoal gray. From the minute I touched it, the guitar felt like an “instrument“, not just another guitar. Beautifully built, solid and sure, it has a unique sound and touch. It’s really kind of intimidating!

[@stevewilliams5915]

Ive been playing for 60+years bought this guitar 2 weeks ago. I can't put it down. Just love the thing. Sounds amazing plays like a dream.

[@williamanderson2203]

I bought a 2018 cherry burst SE custom 24 brand new in '18....wow. I've had this guitar for almost 6 years now and still play it daily like it's brand new....love it.

[@jeffgerndt2813]

I have an SE Custom 08 from Sweetwater. Beautiful in every way. Versatile. I've been playing 50 years and own all the classics. This is a keeper.

[@markhallam7821]

Great performance. Lovely video. A demonstration where it is enjoyable listening to the guitarist and the guitar.

[@PlayandTradeGuitars]

Thanks, I appreciate that! Thanks for watching

[@marmadukewinterbotham2599]

Nice video, thanks! I'm a veteran, as they say, been playing and performing for 60 years, and never dipped my toe into the PRS world. I bought a PRS SE Custom 24-08 Eriza Verde a few months ago (on a bit of a whim - I loved the colour and the figuring), and it was a revelation, in so many ways. I haven't played my Gibsons and Fenders since. Since then I've also bought a PRS SE Custom in Black Gold and a third in Faded Blue!

[@philbergeron5306]

I’m 56 and quickly becoming a PRS fanboy. Se Silver Sky(maple fretboard, a must) and now the Custom and eventually Fiore. I wish for a Fiore SE

[@Lovell93]

Just bought a PRS SE Custom 24-08 and WOW!!!! What an incredible guitar. The value is unbeatable. I am so impressed with the SE that I’m going to buy a core model in a few months!

[@georgeargon5113]

I modified my Custom SE Custom 24 by swapping out the 85/15-S pickups for a set of PRS 57/08s; the push/pull tone pot for a bona fides 500K CTS tone pot; installed a 0.015 UF Bumblebee capacitor; PRS locking tuners, and a pair of amber/black lampshade speed knobs. Now, it sounds like a vintage Gibson, albeit with PRS quality workmanship, for a fraction of the price. As with Jon Oz's comment below, I was prepared to sell the guitar until I had made the modifications. Rest assured, it's coming with me to that The Great Gig in the Sky.

[@toneydavis9802]

I have the 35th Anniversary SE Custom. The guitar is crazy good. I put locking tuners and installed Vaugn Skow PRS specific humbuckers. They sounded great. I had thoughts of selling the guitar and put the original pups back. I played it a bit to make sure everything was ready to sell. But I just couldn't quit playing it. Maybe my "ear" changed. Glad it did. This PRS isn't going anywhere.

[@georgeyoung9985]

I have the exact same guitar, but no modifications. I really should put on locking tuners, it does come out of tune a bunch. That said, the guitar plays beautifully, such an amazing instrument with a lovely tone

[@dennisrohm6372]

I have a Sweetwater exclusive se custom 24. Burl ash top, mahogany body, maple neck. I love this guitar!!!

[@mikepj1025]

I have one as well. I did swap the pickups out though.

[@GOOSE-1334]

I just bought the Sweetwater exclusive with the quilted top today. I had a core custom 24 years ago but my mains have always been single cuts/tremonti. I'm hoping this will be on par with those.

[@DrJeebles]

I thought maybe it was just a new backing track, but you definitely seemed to connect with that beautiful guitar. By the way you reacted at the end it was the guitar for sure. Nice playing, John.

[@MrTPF1]

I've got that exact same guitar and it is fantastic! Stays in tune nicely, and the finish and construction are top notch. My only complaint is that the pickups are a little harsh on the high end. If you dial it in perfectly on one pickup, it requires a lot of tweaking on both the guitar and amp when you select the other pickup. That's why I think the SE 594 would be the fix so that you can dial in both pickups and just switch back and forth all you like.

[@maestro0428]

Got a se standard. Affordable yet my favorite guitar to play.

[@LEIFanevret]

Im lefthanded and i got this prs! And its my fav guitar! Easy playable thin neck and its a beauty! Light weight too! A mix of strat and gibs and like all guitar players one thing left is to find the right sound that one wants amp/pedalwise in my case gary moore/John Sykes kind regards.

[@glaucosouza1971]

PRS SEs, Nux effects and Marshall Origin series, you really cant go wrong with those budget friendly gear. They're spectacular for what you pay.

[@tomthumb4325]

You've just made my day I have them all and doubted myself because I'm on a budget with gear but with a bit of tweaking I can get great sounds out of this gear

[@ADUAquascaping]

I haven't tried the Nux effects, but I am really impressed with my BOSS amp effects. They actually sound good for such an inexpensive amp.

I have this exact guitar! Plays awesome with great tuning stability out the box and a shit ton of tone selection 10/10

[@davidtolliver2048]

Picked up a custom 24 se recently. Love it!

[@jasonsawyer123]

I just got mine yesterday. It's a turquoise one. I actually bought it hoping it would help fill the void left in my heart after losing my 1995 PRS Seafoam Green Standard 24 I lost 10 years ago. It did not. But for the price, I agree, it's a fine guitar.

[@rong.2457]

FYI…this guitar has a maple neck. Look at the neck tenon….and, the listing for this guitar on Sweetwater and Musicians Friend list it as having a maple neck.

[@fifis677]

I bought that exact guitar, down to the color, for $700 new a month or so ago. I love it more than any guitar I've owned in the past. It sounds incredible. Edit: Mine is a PRS SE Custom 24, but mine doesn't have a push pull config...

[@willman100]

Great informative video. That guitar sounds great with some gain.

[@CollegeRecruitsNW]

Mine will be here in 3 days! I can't wait, thanks!

[@ADUAquascaping]

I got the Standard 24-08, and the binding has some small cracks, so I got it for $650, instead of $750, after talking them down. I then installed another tremolo spring, so 5 total with beefy bottom 54 gauge strings. I then filed the nut and adjusted everything to my preferred specs! Now it's one fat ass guitar! Haha

[@doneriksen5599]

I have PRS SE Custom 24 08 and a PRS SE Custom 22 Semi-hollow. Like you, I am a fan of the Wide Thin necks. So comfortable to play.

[@davidkerr1971]

Great post, what a great guitar.I bought one of these guitars a couple of years ago with a baked maple neck. It was great straight out the box, Ive since put Seymour Duncan phat cat p90's into it, put the prs locking tuners on it and upgraded the pots. It's a rocket launcher now lol, great playing guitars, thanks for sharing ✌😎✌🎸🎸

[@toddflowers8052]

It is a beautiful guitar but, I think the DGT SE is the one for me...Nice demo and review !!

[@finishin.my.coffee8780]

I've got a SE CU24. Replaced the pickups, knobs, pots, tuners and nut. Sometimes I wish I'd kept it stock. A stock DGT is looking really good to me now, though. Edit: Or an SE McCarty 594.

[@Kdschaak]

The only PRS I really dig is the Starla. It has a cool vibe and vintage looks. Its got a lot of style.

[@davidwagner3170]

I was really torn between the S2 Custom 24 10th Anniversary or the S2 594 10th Anniversary. If you haven't checked out those videos, here they are. I had gone back and forth on deciding for weeks before ultimately decided that the Custom 24 was more versatile for me. I already have a high end strat, and I can always buy an SE 594 so spending $2500 I think I'm going to be happier with the Anniversary Custom 24. Should be here in 2 weeks.

Just received my PRS SE CUSTOM 24 today. Really liking it so far, but mine has the rosewood board on a maple neck, not a mahogany neck. A little bummed about that as I prefer mahogany necks. Looking to add some locking tuners and I'll be happy enough with it. Thanks for the excellent vid! 😎

[@pmarciano1717]

Hi is this Guitar easy to play for a complete beginner?

[@leandershah1617]

At this point in time (26/Feb/23) I would not recommend going for an SE Custom 24. Rather go for SE McCarty or DGT. I just purchased an SE DGT. They are absolutely freaking amazing sounding. No corners cut for this SE model (except the volume/tone pots not having the bevel and the deep carve). Electronics are wired exactly like you’d find in the core DGT and in comparison, my SE sounds exactly like my Core DGT (almost exactly the same).

[@melaniebrown8282]

Good review, just like I said In the comments about this guitar for the price is way better than that Silversky, Martion looking Stratocaster. These SE Custom 24's are really nice guitars. At only 849, you can't go wrong. Now we need to do a review on the Epiphone 61 SG Standard with/ Maestro Vibrola.

[@StackBundle]

Just got one and the frets are the roughest I've ever felt. I mean worse than a $100 mini squier. I don't know how it ever left the factory with frets this bad. Pickups are also nothing special. Very generic sounding but credit to PRS they do respond to different picking dynamics more than a lot of humbuckers. Overall expected more with the PRS reputation. Probably better than a mexican fender but not by much. G string also tends to go out of tune sometimes. For the money I much prefer my Epi LP custom.

[@tillo000]

“PRS is famous for having a compensated nut…” This is literally the first time I have ever heard of PRS using a compensated nut, and it does not look like Earvana or Music Man compensated nuts. Is this truly a compensated nut? Also, you mention that the SE Custom has a mahogany neck. That’s not accurate. The SE Custom and Standard models all have maple necks, as do about half of the other SE models.

[@christianboddum8783]

Compensated can be done in another way than Earvana FYI, It may not be as precise but it still is compensated.

[@christianboddum8783]

@@wilsondarren Also new to me, you can test it with a tuner; play an open e and fret the f on the first fret, if the f is in tune it will be compensated, if not is not compensated. It's actually quite eyeopening how much the pitch is off at the first fret....
