His persistent desire to explore and discover is a huge part of PRS Guitars dynamism. So, when Paul and the R&D team ramped up their dissection and testing of pickups a couple years ago, it became very clear very quickly that something new was about to be born. Enter the PRS 58/15 pickups, introduced for PRS’s 30th Anniversary year. The 58/15 Limited Edition is a culmination of various features that the Custom 24 has seen throughout the last thirty years and is built around these new vintage-voiced 58/15 pickups, which have exceptional clarity and a focused midrange. Paul describes 58/15 pickups as, “very consistent, ‘best-of’ PAF-style pickups.” Other unique appointments on these instruments include solid shell birds, similar to those found on Paul’s Pre-Factory and the early production guitars, fretboard binding, a preview of a new headstock signature inlay and the Gen III PRS patented tremolo, which has been updated to further support the fidelity of the guitar’s tone and maximize sustain.
Each 58/15 equipped Custom 24 guitar will have an artist grade figured maple top, mahogany back, 24-fret, 25” scale length ‘Pattern Regular’ or ‘Pattern Thin’ mahogany neck with gaboon ebony fretboard, Solid Shell “Blue Purple” Red Abalone Birds (Pattern Regular neck) or Solid Shell “Dark Special” Red Abalone Birds (Pattern Thin neck), gaboon ebony headstock veneer with green abalone signature, Phase III locking tuners, 58/15 treble and bass pickups, one volume and one push/pull tone control with a PRS 3-way toggle pickup selector. Guitars are set up with PRS 10-46 Electric Guitar Strings and are shipped in a PRS Black Paisley Hardshell Artist Case. The 58/15 Custom 24 limited run will total 150 pieces worldwide: 50 of each color (Faded Whale Blue with Natural Back, Black Gold Burst with natural binding, Charcoal Burst), 25 of each color having a Pattern Regular neck carve with Solid Shell “Blue Purple” Red Abalone Bird inlays and 25 having a Pattern Thin neck carve with Solid Shell “Dark Special” Red Abalone Bird inlays.

Paul Reed Smith 58/15 Custom 24 Limited Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance: Exceptionally clear PAF tone PRS's incredible tremolo, but better A very limited, best-of Custom 24 Exceptionally clear PAF tone The Paul Reed Smith 58/15 humbucking pickups are the culmination of the years Paul Smith has been putting into building the ultimate PAF-style pickup. The same wire and machines are used to manufacture these humbuckers as the original pickups from the 1950s. But modern computer control ensures consistent results from pickup to pickup, allowing PRS to fine-tune the tone of them. The sound of the 58/15s is very clear, with a sweet top end that ensures every note across the fretboard will ring evenly. PRS's incredible tremolo, but better The Paul Reed Smith Gen III Tremolo starts where their traditional design left off and adds many design tweaks that add up to a bridge with optimum energy transfer, tuning stability, and fidelity of tone. Maximizing contact with all of the parts was one of the main considerations in building this trem. From countersunk screw holes to radiused grooves for the height-adjustment screws, every place of contact has been optimized. And the machined brass construction is chosen for increased sustain and clarity of tone. A very limited, best-of Custom 24 This Paul Reed Smith Limited 58/15 Custom 24 solidbody electric guitar is a combination of the most popular features throughout the history of the iconic Custom 24. The gorgeous Artist Grade figured maple top is perched on a mahogany body. This tried-and-true tonewood combo puts classic warmth and definition in your hands, and you can't deny the impressive visual element either. A favorite with PRS players, the Pattern Thin neck contour provides a comfortable neck whether you're holding down the rhythm or taking a quick lead. This Limited 58/15 model also features solid-shell bird inlays, just like Paul's pre-factory and early production guitars. And the three-way toggle with push/pull tone control gives you plenty of sonic options. Sweetwater is happy to have a few to offer you, but act now to get one of these beauties before they're gone!
