What PRS Have To Say

The SE Standard 24 is a fresh take on PRS's hallmark model: the Custom 24. Updated here with an all-mahogany body, the SE Standard 24 is a modern instrument with a powerful voice. This guitar features classic PRS appointments, including a 24-fret mahogany neck (set neck construction), rosewood fretboard with bird inlays, and a PRS-Designed tremolo. The SE Standard 24 pairs the warm, round tone of an all-mahogany guitar with S-Series 85/15 pickups, resulting in a guitar that handles well and sounds as good plugged straight into an amp as it does run through a pedal board. The SE Standard 24 is the perfect choice players who demand a rock-solid, reliable guitar.

Since 2001, the SE Series has been offering incredible quality and great tone at affordable prices. The introduction of the SE Standard models represents a significant extension of the SE Series into the < $500 price point. The goal of the SE Series has always been to provide a quality instrument to players of all levels - one that would not fight the player, but encourage him or her to start and to keep playing. PRS is proud to extend this promise to an even more attainable price point with the SE Standard lineup.

Construction

PRS Guitars have really outdone themselves with this amazing value for money guitar. Consisting of a Mahogany Body and Mahogany Neck with guitar rings with sustain and warmth. This matched with a set neck and PRS hardware gives the guitar unbelievable reliability as well as sustain warmth and feel. PRS Guitars have made this to be the best guitar they could for under 400GBP and have done so with ease.

PRS Bird Inlays

One of the most recognisable things about PRS guitars and which makes them stand out is their beautiful Bird inlays. These are what make PRS guitars stand out to begin with and are used on most models to date! Based on real life birds due to Pauls mother being a bird watcher which was his inspiration for this design some of the birds used include, Common Tern, Coopers Hawk, Kite and an Owl.

Tuners & Nut

Paul Reed Smiths SE Tuners are renowned for being extremely stable and precise and highly regarded round this price bracket as one of the most stable excluding locking tuners and nuts. As well as the Tuners one of the three main contact points for the string is the nut which is essential to the guitars tone. Prs use a proprietary nut material, designed to maximise the guitar's tonal resonance. PRS nut placement is compensated to provide accurate intonation across the fretboard.
