    2021 CE-24 'treble bleed' when turning down volume

    When I turn down the volume knob lower than 8, the high freqs get filtered out dramatically. To the point where I don't use the volume knob for dynamics. It just stays at 10 to avoid any muddy sounds when the volume is turned down. Anybody else experience this? I do see mods for 'treble bleed'...

    CE24 - Make trem more bendy!

    hey folks, On my CE24, the bar is a little bit stiff. I wish it behaved a bit more like a Floyd (I know I know…it’s not a Floyd). But I use this guitar for my Rush stuff - Alex Lifeson type whammy from the 80s. It has 4 springs in it now - would I just drop this down to 3 springs and then...

    Looking for any info/tips with my PRS guitars

    Finally about to restring some of my older PRS's which I have picked up in the last year or so (I have a used guitar "problem"). I assume I won't have any issues putting 10's on both? I've read some things about neck pocket issues on the EG3's but at this point the guitar is 30+ years old and...

    Help me identify my old CE24! (for a pickup change)

    The numbers on the back says 4 CE27161. I think it's a model from the 90's and I'm wondering what pickup configuration I have. Not really feeling the bridge pickup tone and I'm considering switching to Thornbuckers. Love the split coil though so it's a bit rough.

    CE 24 with Wraparound stoptail-“Mike Martin style”

    I would like to just put this out there- I own a few S2s and a DW24 which I love. I’ve been eyeing a few wood library CE24s with Floyd’s just waiting to take the plunge, however would like to pose the question as to why are there no CE 24s with a single stop tails out there? Out of all the PRS...

    Why satin necks by default on SE CE 24 (or bolt on necks in general)?

    Hello, Recently I tried out the SE CE 24 and loved the satin feel neck. It got me wondering though, in general, why bolt on guitars like the SE CE 24 series tend to have satin necks. I've also noticed this with the Fenders that I tried the same day. I like the satin neck quite a bit, and it is...

    Creaking/Popping Bolt on Neck joint (brand new CE24)

    Hi guys, I just got my first PRS guitar (a beautiful CE24), and it has blown me away so far. But i've been hearing this cracking or creaking sound coming from the bolt on neck joint. I'm concerned that the guitar neck has too tight of a fit and might have cracked somewhere in the joint, or that...

    Hi Everyone, I just got my first PRS (CE24) in the last few weeks and I noticed that the tuning peg for the A string doesn't turn smoothly when i'm turning the tuning peg. It almost feels like there's a clicking/pinging feeling or something slipping happening inside of the tuning peg or...

    Which CE24 ?? Please help me decide which one

    Hey Everyone! I recently got a new CE24 and I'm really loving it aside from a small detail that I initially thought the guitar was going to have. Due to a misunderstanding with my Sweetwater rep, the guitar I got ended up missing a detail I initially really wanted for the PRS I was going to get...

    Do the CE24 or Custom 24 nut slots have to be filed for 11-56 gauge strings?

    Hi guys! I just ordered my first PRS CE24. I ordered from Sweetwater and they offer a basic setup option. I normally would do the whole setup on my own but, since I am moving up the string gauge from the factory 9s or 10s to 11-56 gauge strings, I assumed the nut slots would need to be filed a...

It was advertised as "American PRS CE Black Satin Nitro Finish 85/15 Pickups Limited Edition" The model I thought it was turns out to have different pickups and a maple top, whereas mine is a single piece body - it looks identical to...

    Neck shape question

    Hello all! I had a 1997 CE24 with the wide/thin neck and while I loved everything about the guitar, the neck always made my fretting hand cramp after a short while so I sold it. This was with classical hand positions, thumb over, soft touch, didn’t matter. I don’t squeeze the neck or fret...

    Trem claw/screws slanted?

    On my S2 CE24, I noticed the bass string side was up higher than the treble strings. The treble side I sitting at about 1/16 or 4/64ths off the body. The bass side was about 6/64th. To balance them out (pull the bass side down), I adjusted the trem springs in the back, however, it results in...

    NGD Rig (Belated)

    10 years ago our band had a shake up, and needed a bass player. I stepped into the role and enjoyed it so much, I sold all my guitar gear so I could focus on bass. About 3 months ago while cleaning out the the music room/attic, I picked up my wife's Telecaster and began noodling. The Tele...

    CE 24 Tremolo Saddles

    Hi Everyone, I have a CE 24 that I'm trying to set up. I was wondering if anyone could provide the factory specs or pictures of their saddles. When I bought my guitar new, the saddle bottoms weren't parallel (the two screws were different heights on each saddle) with the bottom of the bridge...

    (Question) Installing Tremel-No on CE-24

    I just bought a 2018 CE 24 satin, and took it to my guitar tech to setup and have a new All Parts Tremel-No installed. The large clamp style Tremel-No I bought doesn't fit the guitar. The replacement claw is too wide, and so the holes wouldn't line up to screw it in. My tech told me that in...
