Another week and another chance to drool over a new PRS Guitar. The esteemed guitar manufacture is celebrating their 35th Anniversary this year and this week’s release is the 35th Anniversary PRS SE Custom 24 in a new Faded Blue Burst.
The first run of 35th Anniversary SE Custom 24’s was introduced in October 2019 in a Black Fold Wrap Burst, with a limited run of 3500 guitars. With such high demand from consumers and dealers worldwide for the model that started it all, PRS went back for a second run, adding the new color and preserving the collectability of both models. Less than 3000 guitars will be produced.
According to PRS, this limited-edition model captures the foundational elements of an iconic model and adds the musical functionality of the Paul’s Guitar, creating a new, versatile platform. The 35th Anniversary SE Custom 24 features TCI “S” treble and bass pickups with two mini-toggle switches that allow players to put either or both pickups in humbucking or true single-coil mode. The clarity and balanced tones of these vintage-inspired pickups are both big and nuanced, so players can easily find their sweet spot. Additional features include a 24-fret wide thin neck, abalone “old school” birds, and PRS’s patented tremolo design.
“We had high hopes that this configuration would speak to players and deliver a lot of value. Judging by how quickly we sold through the first offering, I would say those hopes were verified,” said Jack Higginbotham, PRS Guitars Chief Operating Officer. “I am glad we are able to offer this second run of instruments.”
