PRS Custom 24 Piezo

What an insane maple top on this PRS Custom 24 Piezo!

Based on the renowned Custom 24, this PRS Custom 24 Cobalt Smokeburst boasts an LR Baggs Piezo system. This allows you to harness a wide range of acoustic sounds, in addition to PRS's fantastic electric sounds. The Pattern Thin neck feels great and is slightly slimmer than the Pattern Regular necks. The guitar is equipped with dual outputs, allowing you to route the piezo to a separate amp/soundboard or use a mixed output signal. The Blend knob and 3-way switch make it easy to find the perfect balance between electric and acoustic. The piezo can also be switched off, allowing you to use the traditional Custom 24 sounds! The magnetic pickups have also received a significant upgrade in the form of TCI. Includes hardshell case.

What is TCI?

TCI stands for Tuned Capacitance and Inductance treatment . This method of fine-tuning pickups originated during the design process of the Silver Sky, in collaboration with John Mayer. Both Paul Reed Smith and John Mayer were obsessed with accurately replicating the Stratocaster single-coil pickups from 1963 to 1965, with precisely the right balance between high and low frequencies. When a pickup is wound, the coils are simultaneously capacitors (capacitance), resistors, and inductors (inductance). Until now, these three elements could not be influenced independently, but Paul Reed Smith cracked the code to isolate these factors and finely tune them. Thanks to the TCI treatment, the pickups are now even more perfectly tuned to the guitar, producing the purest guitar sound yet. TCI is more than just a new type of pickup; it is a completely innovative process. That process is now applied to all PRS pickups offered in the Core line, with the exception of some Signature models.
