 | PRS CE 24The PRS CE (Classic Electric) was first introduced in 1988. The original CEs where known simply as the "PRS Electric" but by 1995 these models were labelled PRS CE. PRS couldn't use the model name "Classic Electric" due to trademark issues with Peavey so they used the abbreviation CE instead. |
 | PRS CE 24 Semi-HollowThe PRS CE 24 Semi-Hollow is designed to combine the snap and sustain of a bolt-on guitar with the resonance of a semi-hollow body. The body pairs the traditional combination of a mahogany back and maple top with a bolt-on maple neck and rosewood fretboard. The neck features a Pattern Thin carve and satin nitro finish for a natural feel. The electronics consist of a volume and push/pull tone control with a 3-way toggle switch, giving a total of six classic sounds from the PRS 85/15 pickups. |
