Is this a new 24-08 spec?

Custom 24-08 - Black Gold Burst

From Paul Reed Smith: "The Custom 24 is the quintessential PRS guitar, the iconic instrument that started it all back in 1985. The Custom 24-08 keeps all of the same foundational specifications as the original Custom – maple top, mahogany back and neck, 24 frets, 25” scale length, the PRS...

Interesting…

Reminds me of the Brushstroke 24’s they did a while back. But that says ‘23 on the headstock, so it’s definitely new. Although the listing isn’t totally correct (lists whale blue) so hard to say for sure what’s really going on.

I’ll tell you this, if they’ve updated the pickups to be 408 style with the full single coil tap, I say that’s an awesome upgrade. I love the MT’s on my SSH.

Brushstroke 24 was the first thing that came to my mind, too.

I played a Brushstroke 24 and really liked it. Should have bought it.

I can’t believe Cores are like, 5k now.

I saw that. Paul’s pickups. Ain’t it a tremolo Paul’s like they use to make back in the day? I guess what we need to know is what’s the neck carve.
*edit: Actually never mind. It’s 24 fret. Probably wide thin if I was guessing. Not a Paul’s with a tremolo

I’m not even mentioning exchange rates, taxes etc.

Yeah it’s a strange one for sure. I dig it though.

 

[Jimi D]

Wow. I like it. A lot.

One off? Nothing on the 24-08 web page like this one.

 

[Simon Says]

Looks like the 2024 line is starting to leak.

I'm interested to see the other models

Dave’s does get some prototypes from time to time. I bought a prototype Paul’s Guitar, which has the TCI specs, but dates to before the official switch. I also bought a Modem Eagle V from them that has [mktg] after the modcat, which I assume means it was for marketing. I think PRS sells them the stuff that isn’t able to go out as new guitars, but need a home.
