I've had quite the acquisition crusade over the last several months with three new purchases since last November. I'm not gonna get into any specifics like I usually do, because I'm just too darn lazy for it.
But all three of these were able to be had at a very reasonable price, IMO, and all are fantastic guitars.
First, my latest acquisition....a Wood Library Custom 24 in Beach Fade - a special run from Chuck Levins. Artist grade flame top, mahogany back, roasted maple neck, with a standard maple board and headstock veneer. An absolutely stunning instrument in every way.
Oh, and it has (what I'm assuming is a new iteration) 85/15LT pickups....which I did not know existed.
This one is a 2022 Custom 24 Wood Library in Autumn Sky. Quilted maple 10 top, swamp ash body, roasted maple neck, ziricote board. It had 58/15LT pickups, but I swapped 'em out for "M" pickups. This thing screeeeaaaams!
Got this one back in November of last year....
Then, lastly, I picked up this 30th Anniversary Custom 24 in a "one-off" finish called "Chameleon" something or other. A color shifting finish that switches between blue and green depending on the angle. Standard build specs, with the OG 85/15 pickups. A great playing guitar.
Anyways, I'm probably done for a while now with new purchases, but certainly wanted to share them with you all!

I am now pretty much a strictly Custom 24 guy. I've got a HBII and an SE acoustic. Outside of that, all my guitars are some sort of Custom 24 variant. One of these days, I'll get to try a Santana and see if it's something that's in my wheel house. Twenty-four-fretters are just my bag, baby....
