CE24 Egyptian Gold Standard

[Jimmy]

These have been NGD’d before by others, but look at that price! Core specs at an S2 price if it’s correct and what you are looking for. I am assuming that it doesn’t have a maple cap.

The CE 24 electric guitar pairs PRS’s traditional body combination of the mahogany back and maple top with an Egyptian Gold Metallic finish, a bolt-on maple neck and rosewood fretboard. The neck sports a Pattern Thin carve and satin nitro finish for a natural, addictive feel. To further maximize...

Correct, no maple cap.

I don't usually like gold all that much, but ... woof, that is super cool.

 

[SinSir]

It's not core specs, but US pickups and a cool guitar. Yup no maple top, satin finish, and no grain filler. There's also a version out there with 5708 pickups instead of 8515.

I've been eyeing those for a while! Super cool finish.

A CE24 is a core model.

No it's not. It's a bolt on. It's been differnet from core since reintroduced in 2016

The DGT SE in gold is nice $849.00.

It’s not an S2, it’s not an SE. What is it if not a core? Sorry, I disagree. It’s a core model, discontinued or not. Having a bolt on neck certainly doesn’t remove it from core. Silver Sky not core either?

Bolt on. Check PRS site. They designate a difference between core and bolt on. This isn't some made up opinion.

Correct SS isn't core either. It's bolt on.

The construction is different and more from core than just bolt on. Back in the day the bolt on and maple was the main difference. Now that's not the case. Speaking of case. Core comes with a case. Now the bolt ons don't.

But yes, the ce shares a bridge, tuners, and neck construction of s2. It has its own shallow carve. It does have core pickups.

This isnt a knock on ce. Just the way PRS does things now.

I think what @SinSir is saying is that the PRS website refers to the CE24 as Bolt-on Series.

Still a PRS and we all love those, so we’re all good

The only USA made PRS I would consider non core is an S2.

 

[Jimmy]

I definitely need to be tighter with my language! This offering from AMS is probably the least expensive way to get a new guitar in the CE line with all of the saved labor, and that is pretty awesome!

For sure the CE falls in “non-core” category.

Old ones were the same as Customs. These are no where near.

Then you’d be kinda right and kinda wrong.

 

[Xtcclassic]

I mean, PRS themselves consider it a non-core. It’s a USA-made PRS and it’s a GREAT guitar, but going by PRS’s own categories, it’s not a core.

PRS needs to make a Vela in this finish. Big time. Wow.
