Paul Reed Smith SE Custom 24 Exotic Burled Ash Limited Edition - Lake Blue

The Paul Reed Smith SE Custom 24 Exotic Burled Ash Limited Edition – Lake Blue is a stunning example of craftsmanship, tone, and exclusivity, made all the more special by its limited run—only 1,000 of these beauties will be produced worldwide in 2025. This guitar is not just an instrument; it’s a celebration of Paul Reed Smith’s enduring influence on the guitar industry. From boutique beginnings to becoming a cornerstone of high-performance guitars, Paul’s vision has always centered around innovation, precision, and musicality. That ethos shines through in every detail of this limited-edition SE model.

At its core, this Custom 24 features a solid mahogany body with a shallow violin-carved maple top, capped with a mesmerizing swamp ash burl veneer that radiates elegance in a captivating Lake Blue finish. The set maple neck—crafted in a stable multi-ply construction—sports PRS’s fast and comfortable Pattern Wide Thin profile, offering effortless playability across all 24 frets on a smooth rosewood fretboard adorned with iconic PRS bird inlays. A 25" scale length and 10" radius strike a perfect balance between classic feel and modern comfort.

Under the hood, a pair of 85/15 “S” humbuckers deliver articulate highs, tight lows, and a balanced midrange, with coil-splitting capabilities via the push/pull tone knob and a 3-way toggle for versatile tonal exploration. The PRS-designed tremolo bridge and smoked black hardware not only complete the sleek aesthetic but also provide excellent tuning stability and sustain. Weighing in at a manageable 7 lbs 11 oz and equipped with a PRS gig bag, this SE Custom 24 is ready for both stage and studio.

Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a tone-chasing enthusiast, this limited-edition PRS is more than a guitar—it’s a collectible work of art born from one of the most innovative minds in modern luthiery.
