With the PRS CE 24 Grey Black the classic bolt-on neck construction returns after a long absence to the program of the premium guitar forge from Stevensville, Maryland. The electric guitar combines a mahogany body with solid maple top and a bolt-on maple neck with two PRS 85/15 humbuckers to a first-class all-rounder for almost every genre. In addition, the proven and functional PRS hardware completes the harmoniously designed CE 24 Grey Black electric guitar by Paul Reed Smith.

Perfection with screw neck
Like all electric guitars made by Paul Reed Smith, the CE 24 impresses with its flawless workmanship of exquisite woods. Mahogany is used for the body, while the solid maple top with its lively grain sets visual accents. The neck, which is fastened with four screws, is also made of maple and features a rosewood fingerboard with 24 frets and the much appreciated Bird inlays. The handy Pattern Thin neck profile also ensures a high level of playing comfort that will delight lead and rhythm guitarists.
Modern humbucker sounds
The electrical tone conversion of the CE 24 Grey Black electric guitar is handled by two PRS 85/15 humbuckers, which were developed by Paul Reed Smith himself to deliver a modern sound for a wide range of applications. The pickups deliver remarkable transparency on both clean and distortion amps, following every nuance of playing with deep but articulate bass, vocal mids, and silky highs. Using the push/pull tone knob, both humbuckers can be split, allowing authentic single-coil sounds with bell-like clarity and silvery overtones to greatly expand the sound of the Paul Reed Smith CE 24.
Known reliable hardware
Last but not least, the CE 24 Grey Black is equipped with high-quality hardware that was developed by PRS and convinces with unlimited functionality. The bridge used is the PRS-Designed Tremolo System, whose smooth handling invites you to decorate the notes with gently shimmering vibratos. Due to its edge-free surface, the system offers a comfortable support for palm mutes and similar playing techniques. On the headstock, indestructible PRS Low Mass Locking tuners ensure precise and robust tuning even with frequent tremolo use.
