- The Custom 24 is the quintessential PRS guitar, the iconic instrument that started it all back in 1985. The Custom 24-08 features many of the same foundational specifications as the original Custom - maple top, mahogany back and neck, 24 frets, 25” scale length, and the PRS patented Gen III tremolo - but adds a new level of versatility with its simple switching system. Starting in 2024, the Custom 24-08 adds TCI pickups. Featuring mini-toggle coil tap switches that independently coil tap the humbuckers, the Custom 24-08 has eight different pickup settings that provide an array of humbucking and singlecoil tones. For classic PRS playability, reliability, and tone with ultimate flexibility, check out the Custom 24-08.
Watch along as product specialist Bryan Ewald demonstrates the specs and tonal range of this versatile guitar.

That guitar looks and sounds amazing
Dude that middle position sound is stellar 🤯
Love the TCI and those wing button tunners, love it!
Excellent!
This is the best PRS for me ❤❤❤
I have a 24-08 with 85/15s and that guitar handles downtune and high gain sooooooo so well. These things are ultra stable with low tuning. Pups have a very very rich midrange full of harmonics.
These new mini hums sound really good and I’m not knocking them but taking the 85/15 away from the 08 just seems wrong to me.
This one i would actually buy!
Love my new Custom 24, the 08 is very cool. Maybe next time.
Amazing!!!
I would love to have a custom 24 with the new tci pickups and piezo! What pickups are you putting in the c24 piezo in 2024?
I dont see a demo for the piezo version yet
Beautiful presentation. Does the S2 version of the Custom 24 08 model have the very identical pickups of the Core model? I know that they are both TCI, but I want to be sure that they are exactly the same.
Alright. That’s the only and next one ❤
Interesting. I bought the SE 24-08 a couple of years ago and apart from dodgy wiring (just recently the bridge pickup cuts in and out) I think it's a fine piece of work - I have a number of guitars, Gibson, Sadowsky, Fender, Gretsch, Duesenberg etc and figured it was finally time to try a PRS and I'm very happy I finally got round to it . . . the pickup options are great, especially in the mid-position, love the neck, trem and so on. So . . . this may be a heretical question but what is that is significantly different from the SE to warrant the Core Model coming at around 10 times the price? The pickups? The wood? Fretboard? Electronics? Or just the fact that it's made in US as opposed to Indonesia - genuine question from anyone who knows both as this video doesn't really go into that aspect of the guitar. Thanks if you can help?
If the answer is 'all of the above' please just save yourself the effort and head off to your local comedy club 😅
Still regret selling my Brushstroke24 but finally something very similar, apart from newer TCI pickup and Pattern thin neck.
The potencial of TCI technology is awsome. What happened with the PRS 408? The asymetrical pickups were an interesting idea. I think it would be intereting thing to see.
Gone.
what is TCI technology?
Looks and sounds great! However, which are the differences between this and a Paul’s Guitar now besides one has trem and the other a Stoptail (And you can find out Paul’s guitars with trem out there)
24 frets
Somebody get Matteo Mancuso a PRS signature guitar please!
Why?
Yamahas are better
@@Davix-tt9shNope they aren't.
He really loves the revstar. Him and Chris buck have had me curious about them
It looks awesome! Can you order a Custom 24-08 with a pattern size neck?
As far as I know. . . no. You have to order it with their standard spec, which is a pattern thin for Custom 24-08. I wanted a pattern size neck as well, but there was no customization option. I eventually settled for the pattern thin. I got the guitar a few weeks ago, and it's fantastic! Couldn't be happier. Pattern thin neck took a bit to get used to, but I love the guitar.
If the TCI pickups sound like single coils without the hum, why the need to tap them to make them actual single coils? The appeal of this guitar to me has always been the versatility of having actual humbuckers that can be tapped to sound like single coils.
I currently have a 2006 Custom 22 with Dragon II pickups - How different tonally are these new TCI pickups...? If they are different sounding enough I would love to get a 24-08...
The 24-08 was on my radar... not anymore unfortunately...... not with those mini-humbuckers at least....
Beautiful and affordable..
Gotta say not really a huge fan of rhe new tuner buttons
Anyone know if those pickup cavities are large enough to put in a traditional humbucker?
No, you can`t swap those pickups for traditional sized humbuckers....
its sad PRS don't do anymore the PRS 408 models with original design of the bridge bigger that the neck pickup, that was a great models completely new
so I thinks the custom 24-08 should have the pickup of the 408 models
Are the wait times for these new ones also 2 years? Looking to get one
Great question! I ordered an 85/15 configured 24-08 in Antique White in late June of 2023. I was told 20-22 months. In January of '24 I came across this new version of the 24-08 and wanted to change my order. Turns out my order was already changed to the new version and it was ready! Not only was it ready, but it was also photographed for the PRS website. I was shocked!
All of the colors have been photographed for this model and it's possible that some of them are not earmarked for dealers/end users so they might be available -- most appear to be 10-tops.
@@johntompson174 thats what i hope to hear! Placed an order for one in faded whale blue, eager to hear some good news on ETA hopefully
@@SnowDeity It will be worth the wait, but maybe you'll win the lottery!
Looking forward to the CE24-08 with these pickups...
How much? areal estate in Bel Air!
Dang. Knew I should have bought one last year. New tuners are fine, but it’s not a custom 24 if it doesn’t have the same humbuckers.
Well this is the 24-08 so yeah it is not a custom 24
🤣
Those tuner buttons are definitely a no no, awful
Sure, with people like you Gibson and Fender made sure to stay buried in the nostalgia crap train. Fortunately PRS doesn't do this.
@@andreil1234 I own 2 wood libraries and a 594 and much prefer the aluminium in silver & gold. Those tuners look crap!
@@davebridge5580 definitely an acquired taste but i also prefer the brushed metal tuners on my 594
@@davebridge5580 in all honesty there still are lots of people who think prsi look like crap in general - or like j knaggs think they don't innovate enough.
I'd say much like the oversized CBS headstock they're an acquired taste.
If a PRS with these new tuners would have been the first prs you touched and it floored you, probably you'd have liked them.
That's my point:-)
@@andreil1234 Don't like the silver sky tuners and wouldn't buy one
So you removed the 85/15s and discontinued the 408…. 👎
If they're discontinued then they're discontinued just like the 509, what else do you expect them to make, there's also the Modern Eagle 5!
These Paul's guitar or 408 style pickups are not that well received in general. Personally the standard shape and size pickups look the best!!
i just hate the pickup switch, this feels like a slap to people who wanna change pickups, like GOSH
just don't CHANGE THE CUSTOM 24 TO THESE PICKUPS
id understand only this guitar getting these pickups cause it used the Pauls guitar switches and electronics system but not the custom 24 so the custom 24 doesn't get this change
Too expensive for a not to much guitar. Beautiful furniture anyway.
You can tell even Bryan does not believe Paul's senile bullshit about the TUNERS affecting the tone....good grief, next the guy will say the guitars color affects the tone. He's an amazing guitar builder for sure, but his "tonewood-religion" has gone off the deep end into full on snake oil now. See how Bryan avoids eye contact when saying it....can tell the poor guy is forced to read a script and feels thoroughly embarrassed parroting Paul's dementia.
What cant PRS get a guy who can actually play a guitar to Demo their Guitars?
