PRS Wood Library Custom 24 10-Top Quilted Maple - Yellow Tiger

PRS Wood Library Custom 24 10-Top Quilted Maple - Yellow Tiger

The PRS Custom 24 is more than just a guitar; it's the icon that launched a legendary brand. When Paul Reed Smith first introduced this model at the 1985 Winter NAMM show, he didn't just build a guitar—he unleashed a new breed of electric, masterfully blending the best of classic designs with modern innovation. This particular Wood Library Custom 24 is a shining testament to that vision, featuring an ultra-rare, solid Rosewood neck that takes the Custom 24's voice into entirely new territory.

Feast your eyes on the breathtaking 10-Top Quilted Maple finish in a vivid Yellow Tiger. Quilted maple is all about deep, three-dimensional figuring that catches the light from every angle—it's pure artistry. The luxurious Rosewood neck—a coveted feature from the PRS Wood Library—replaces the bright snap of maple with a thick, warm, and highly musical resonance, adding a rich complexity to every note. Paired with a swamp ash body, this combination offers a perfect balance of snap, clarity, and warmth, providing a sustain-rich foundation for its versatile sound.

Equipped with a pair of world-class DMO humbuckers, this axe sings with clarity and a ferocious punch. These pickups are tuned to deliver a rich, full-bodied tone with exceptional note separation, whether you’re playing crystal-clean chords or pushing an amp into saturated overdrive. The combination of a solid rosewood neck and the Custom 24's renowned playability is a dream for any serious player. This model's versatility is why the Custom 24 has been a go-to for countless artists across every genre, from progressive rock icon Alex Lifeson of Rush to modern powerhouse Mark Tremonti of Alter Bridge. This is a world-class instrument destined to be the crown jewel of any collection.
