PRS Custom 24 Floyd, Charcoal Cherry Burst Overview

A truly sophisticated, high-performance electric guitar with effortless playability, rock-solid tuning stability and an incendiary tone.

Designed For Destruction

The Custom 24 “Floyd” is a high-octane rendition of the quintessential PRS instrument. As you’d expect from a company as renowned as PRS, this is a premium guitar that’s been built to an exceptional standard. Like all PRS guitars, the “Floyd” was crafted in Maryland, USA by a combination of skilled luthiers and machinery. This process gives you the best of both - the personal touch of a master craftsman and the precision of a machine.

Premium Construction

There’s no doubt that this PRS Custom 24 “Floyd” is a feast for the eyes, with its stunning figured Maple top, elegant body contours and breathtaking Charcoal Cherry Burst finish. Don’t be fooled by this guitar’s exquisite design - whilst it looks like a beauty, it’s a real beast when it comes to its tone. With its classic combination of a solid Mahogany body and a carved Maple top, the PRS Custom 24 “Floyd” boasts a rich, thick tone with exceptional note definition and a singing sustain. As well as imparting a sleek look, the precisely carved top and ergonomic contours make the “Floyd” an inviting and comfortable guitar to play.

Prepare To Shred

The body is paired with a one-piece Maple neck, which has been sculpted to a Pattern Thin profile. Compared to other PRS neck profiles, the Pattern Thin has a slender feel that’s suited for shredders whilst also being rounded enough for comfy chordal work. The 25" scale neck is adorned with a smooth Ebony fretboard, majestic bird inlays and 24 frets, giving you a full two-octaves of unhindered expression.

Commanding Tone

PRS have equipped the Custom 24 “Floyd” with a pair of their high-output \m/ (metal) humbucking pickups. These humbuckers are wound in-house at PRS and have been designed to excel at metal, rock and other heavy genres. Packing ceramic magnets, the \m/ (metal) pickups deliver a powerful, full and articulate sound whether you’re playing crystal-clean or with lashings of gain.

Thanks to the five-way blade switch, you can instantly access both fat humbucking and crisp single-coil tones. Position 4 is a highlight, as it combines the neck and bridge single coils in parallel for a snappy Tele-style sound that’s perfect for clean rhythm playing.

Professional Hardware

The PRS Custom 24 “Floyd” is completed by an impressive hardware spec, which includes Phase III locking tuners and an ultra-stable Original Floyd Rose tremolo system. Whether you’re adding delicate vibrato or performing an aggressive dive bomb, you can count on the “Floyd” to retain its tuning. Other premium appointments include a PRS Double-Acting truss rod and a PR-11 locking nut.

With its slim Pattern Thin neck, red-hot humbuckers and ultra-stable double locking system, the “Floyd” is the perfect PRS for players who pursue heavy, technically-demanding styles.
