Incorporating the middle pick from the Modern Eagle V, the PRS CE 24 Special offers promises of Strat-like, scooped tones and additional features in its limited-edition production.
PRS Guitars has unveiled a new limited edition model, the CE 24 Special Limited Edition, a high-end electric guitar that blends innovative features with special characteristics. With a production run of only 1,500 units, this instrument promises to be a sought-after piece for guitar enthusiasts.
Innovative Features
The CE 24 Special Limited Edition boasts a versatile pickup configuration, featuring a hum/single/hum setup. The treble and bass positions are equipped with PRS 85/15 humbuckers, known for their wide tonal range, while the middle position sports a PRS NS-01 single coil. This setup, combined with a 5-way blade switch, offers a vast array of tonal options, making it easy for players to navigate through various genres.
Another innovative feature is the push-pull tone control, which allows for coil-splitting of the humbuckers. This expands the tonal palette, enabling players to achieve single-coil sounds when desired.
Special Characteristics
The guitar's unique body design includes a solid mahogany body topped with figured maple, providing a balanced tone with warmth and clarity. The bolt-on maple neck adds a snappy attack and enhanced resonance.
The CE 24 Special Limited Edition is available in five distinct nitro finish options: Faded Gray Burst, Faded Blue Smokeburst, Carroll Blue, McCarty Burst, and Black Amber.
Premium components round out the CE 24 Special Limited Edition, including PRS Phase III locking tuners and a PRS patented tremolo, ensuring a stable tuning and smooth playing experience.
