They both sound green to me, should have gone for another color to notice a diference.
Yes you can hear that the satin has a bolt on neck. Sounds more punchy and clear. Is just a matter of taste and what the job/gig//song is asking for. Both guitars very good tools
The PRS SE Custom 24-08 To my ears had more clarity in a fuller sound but it was close Which is interesting, giving that there are different pickups different string gage and a different nut.
I love my PRS SE CE 24 Vintage Cherry Satin that I bought in last February..... It feels good, plays well, is only 7.2lbs, love the finish and 10 radius. Finally PRS makes a lovely guitar for those who cannot spend $$$ !
I’ve had the SE Standard with a glossy neck and wasn’t a fan, otherwise loved the guitar. Will have to get the CE to try it out and see if I prefer it
I have a PRS SE CE 24 Zebra and a SE CE 24 Standard Satin. For some reason I connect with the Satin more. They sound close, but the coil splits sound better on the Satin. For some reason the sound on the Satin is punchier...... It is like the difference between a H-D Roadglide and a Street Glide. Same motorcycle basically with a different riding experience. But hey, I bought both models because of how they played. No loss either way
The set neck definitely has thicker mids. I personally prefer the se ce sound. But I reckon with a tweak on the pickup heights and pole pieces they'd sound the same
That lime green is SO PRETTY
I can definitely hear a big difference. And I'm not just talking about output level.
• Glossy SE sounds darker and beefier. It's definitely going for that classic rock sound.
• Satin SE sounds brighter and more defined. It absolutely nails that modern Polyphia sound which I love, and coil splits sound MUCH closer to a Strat than Glossy SE.
Satin SE wins for me I think, since you can get close to the classic rock sound by turning down the volume/tone knob if you wish.
You aren't the first person who says the sound is clearly differentiable although in videos, as you have highlighted , that difference seems minimal.
I am a proud owner of a Eriza green Custom 24-08 just like yours and I love the sound and playability of it.
But man, may I ask you two questions?
1. Have you noticed any balance change when you changed your tuners? I've read locking are heavier so I'm afraid the balance may vary noticeably.
2. Why have you change the springs of the trem? How often do you think they should be changed? And which do you recommend? (These are three questions .. but count as one 😅)
Hey man! So for the locking tuners I haven’t noticed any change in weight, the PRS ones are very lightweight, I think they weigh practically the same as the non locking ones, I love them and I really recommend them!
For the springs, I changed them because the stock ones made a lot of noise in recordings, so I put less noisy ones, I don’t remember the brand because my guitar tech recommended them to me, but I believe there are plenty available on the internet :) If you don’t want to change the strings you could simply put a foam pad between them but if you use the trem a lot it could interfere
@@sergioserramusicYeah! That's true, I feel there's a continuous harmonic sound every time I play any C note or chord. I've thought about just putting a little cotton ball to make the springs usable but not so resonant.
Very honesty démo ✨🤙
I just got the satin a few weeks ago. For an affordable option it kills, but the custom sounds a bit better to me, less flat.
Great video! Dude, could you tell me if the "ce" you showed has the same thickness and width as the 2408?
@@Dan_XF07 thank you 😊 The body is thinner, the neck is very similar the only difference is the paint!
I felt like the ce standard had less of an audible tone. Less midrange. But it had more of a percussive picking sound. I play metal with lots of galloping. So I bet I'd like it more, overall
@@kickfighting1015 I guess it’s down to personal taste!
@@sergioserramusic thanks for the response. Which do you prefer?
@ I prefer the 24-08. It sounds fuller, I prefer the neck joint because it leaves me more space for accessing the upper frets and of course the look is also a part of it!
Brother are they jumbo frets or what..
The most usefull thing, which is "how does if feel", cannot be reviewed in a video !!!
Hi sergio, i wanted to know whether the ibanez rga42fm or the se ce 24 satin would be a better option ??
@@user.axnv28 i never played the Ibanez so I cannot say, but I haven’t really liked Ibanez in that price range, especially the pickups
Sergio, I have a Satin and I love it, but I think I'd like better pickups. Do you (or anybody here) have suggestions as to which pickups to use? I'd like a slightly brighter and warmer sound. Or like Sergio calls it, more creamy.
@@oscarmontubio9473 ahah a creamy option is the classic Seymour Duncan JB and Jazz set, a friend of mine is very happy with them. I would love to try a usa set of PRS Pickups, hopefully I will in the future, you’ll see on the channel of course, because that would retain the splitting capabilities that I think PRS nails every time!
@@sergioserramusic thank you! Gonna take a look at them!
I prefer the ce satin, but i think it looks like the 24 08 inspires you a little more. At least thats the way it looks to me.
@@Brykk it feels better to me, but probably because I’m used to it!
@@sergioserramusic it shows that you have a bit more feel with it. I have always felt that i can get over a little bit of a guitars short comings if it inspires me to play more, play better, or play a different style. Then again, this has led to my owning too many guitars. Lol
I care more about the feel. Do they feel similar? The sound can change anytime
@@KingofPho75 as feel goes I prefer my 24-08, but that may be because I know it inside and out, it feels more premium. But the CE24 is still a great guitar for much less money!
@@sergioserramusic that’s good to hear. I might be getting one then. It’s hard to see good guitars at this price now
Olá, Sérgio... moro no Brasil e estou na dúvida entre a PRS se ce24 e uma IBANEZ 470 dx ... você poderia me ajudar com sua opinião ???
I haven’t played the Ibanez so I can’t comment on that. I know that I don’t like Ibanez pickups in their less expensive guitars, the fretboard is flatter so it could be more comfortable but it really should be up to your taste, I suggest you trying them if you can. The PRS has more premium woods, but that may count to you or not, I like the feel of rosewood better than its substitutes and PRS is one of the few that offers it. And for the looks, 100% PRS for me

Personally, I can only hear an output difference. The Custom 24-08 has more output than the CE24. Both are great, tho. IMO, it comes down to which one you prefer visually. And, feel-wise, if you like a glossy or satin neck.
Nice and honest review, Sergio. Saludos desde México
Maybe its me but CE24 doesn't sound as bright or loud, could be the recording, meaning C24 sounds better.
@@KalashKat they were different in the room too, it could be due to the strings. I will be doing a full PRS SE comparison asap ;)
This was a great demo. I'm consistently surprised how dark the Satin sounds on clean sounds. I'm not sure why that is, but I have noticed that in a wide range of demos.
Combo of the pickups and (lack of) maple top.
I hear no difference. I would just buy the Satin CE. And save some 💰.
I heard more sparkle on the light green on the first clip while clean
Yow im planning to buy prs se ce or custom
@@graves7601 you’ve got to try them
@sergioserramusic only orders are available
@sergioserramusic how's the feel?
@@graves7601 i prefer the overall feel of the Custom 24, the satin feels cheaper to me, but I like the satin neck.
Consider the price difference tho, the 24-08 is almost double!
@sergioserramusic yeah thanks for the reply bro. Yeah satin looks cheap
Pica!
PRS are the ugliest guitars ever
PRS are the best looking guitars ever
Yeah I'm sure all the great players who use them would disagree
