The PRS SE Custom 24 Semi-Hollow Piezo is a masterclass in versatility, blending the iconic foundation of the original Custom 24 with the rich resonance of a semi-hollow body and the expanded tonal palette of an integrated piezo system. First introduced in 1985, the Custom 24 became the flagship of PRS Guitars—featuring a maple top, mahogany body, dual humbuckers, and the signature PRS tremolo. This modern semi-hollow iteration retains those core elements while introducing a whole new world of sonic character and flexibility.
With its semi-hollow construction, this model delivers enhanced sustain, warmth, and a more open, airy tone—perfect for players seeking both clarity and character. At the heart of the guitar are PRS 85/15 “S” pickups, known for their articulate highs, tight lows, and exceptional clarity. The push/pull tone control adds coil-splitting functionality, opening the door to crisp single-coil tones in addition to full-bodied humbucking sounds.
What truly sets this model apart is the inclusion of the LR Baggs/PRS Piezo system, which gives players the power to blend or switch between electric and acoustic voices on the fly. Two separate volume controls allow you to shape the magnetic and piezo signals independently, while dual output jacks offer flexible routing options: plug into the “Mix/Piezo” jack to blend tones using one cable, or use both jacks for split signal paths—magnetics to an electric amp, piezo to an acoustic amp or DI. As a smart fail-safe, the piezo battery is bypassed when using the magnetic jack alone, ensuring you're never left without sound mid-performance.
Aesthetically, the SE Custom 24 Semi-Hollow Piezo features a beautifully matched headstock veneer, elegant binding on the neck and headstock, and vintage-style lampshade knobs that nod to classic design with modern flair. With its stunning looks, dynamic tones, and dependable build quality, this guitar is a true workhorse built to thrive in any musical environment—from solo acoustic sets to full-band electric performances.
