PRS Limited-edition CE 24-08 Black Limba Electric Guitar
Equipped with unique tonewoods and a bolt-on neck, the PRS Limited-edition CE 24-08 Black Limba Electric Guitar offers players a bold new take on the company’s sonically pliable 24-08 platform. This guitar’s acoustic foundation comprises a solid, all-black-limba body, infusing it with a warm, resonant tone reminiscent of premium-quality mahogany. Under the hood, 85/15 humbuckers deliver a dynamic sound that splits the difference between modern power and vintage-style nuance. You also get mini-toggle switches and a 3-way pickup selector, arming you with eight different pickup tones. Of course, the CE 24-08 Black Limba is supremely playable as well, thanks to its Pattern Thin neck, 25-inch scale, and lightning-fast rosewood fingerboard. This solidbody electric guitar brandishes a rock-solid PRS patented tremolo for maximum expression, along with low-mass locking tuners. Furthermore, you get iconic PRS Birds fingerboard inlays, gleaming nickel hardware, and a spotlight-ready satin nitrocellulose finish. But you’ll have to act fast — the Paul Reed Smith CE 24-08 Black Limba is limited to 400 guitars built worldwide.
Made to be played
It goes without saying that this limited-edition CE 24-08’s black limba body is glorious to behold, but this electric solidbody wasn’t built to be stared at — it was built to be played. Don’t believe us? Pick it up! The CE 24-08 Black Limba’s maple neck boasts PRS’s eminently comfortable Pattern Thin shape; meanwhile, its bolt-on construction injects every note you play with a sharp bite that you can really dig into. You’ve never experienced fast and playable until you’ve gotten your hands on a Pattern Thin neck. Moreover, it’s an excellent choice for players with smaller hands or guitarists who use classical left-hand positioning, pivoting with their thumb on the back of the neck. The CE 24-08 Black Limba’s 25-inch scale length sits comfortably between short- and longer-scale instruments; plus, you get a 10-inch-radius, 24-fret rosewood fingerboard that’s primed for lightning-fast fretwork.
Ear-grabbing 85/15 pickups
The PRS CE 24-08 Black Limba is equipped with a set of 85/15 humbuckers, which can tackle the gamut of genres — rock, pop, indie, metal, punk, and more — with equal assurance. These pickups boast an articulate and present tone, with extended high- and low-end power, in addition to natural clarity across the entire sonic spectrum. No matter what you plug the CE 24-08 Black Limba into, its 85/15 pickups are sure to please; they can drive a busy pedalboard without losing definition, but they also have more than enough character if you plug straight into your favorite hot tube amp. These pickups also include mini-toggle coil-tap switches, providing you with eight ear-grabbing tones to mix and match.
First-class hardware
If you’re like the guitarists here, you’ll admire the extreme pride PRS takes in its guitars, which is evident in every inch of this limited-edition CE 24-08 Black Limba. Take its patented tremolo, for example. This superior design gives you intonation and tuning stability on par with a hardtail bridge while also equipping you with the expressive capabilities of a traditional vibrato. Beyond that, the patented tremolo transfers every vibrational nuance from your strings to the guitar’s wood. You’ll also appreciate the CE 24-08 Black Limba’s low-mass locking tuners, which not only offer rock-solid tuning stability, but you’ll also find restringing fast and easy, enabling you to spend less time tuning up and more time playing.
