Meet our Most Affordable Model: The SE CE 24 Standard Satin
Posted Feb 20, 2024
Meet the most affordable PRS in our lineup, the SE CE 24 Standard Satin. The CE family of guitars have been an essential part of PRS history since they were first introduced in 1988, and now in 2024 the SE CE 24 Standard Satin will become the most affordable CE yet - $499 USD at launch! Does affordability mean compromised quality? Absolutely not!
This guitar, like many others in the SE lineup, was a passion project of PRS Chief Operating Officer Jack Higginbotham:
“It is difficult to speak briefly about the SE CE 24 Standard Satin. The price of this guitar implies that it is probably a great beginner guitar – it is. But, I imagine for some it also implies that it is lacking in some way – it is not. This guitar is full of all the attention to detail we have infused into the SE Series: the neck, pickups, playability, and vibe are pure PRS. More than that, this new satin finish makes a very lively guitar because it is so thin, but it is also incredibly durable, so it can withstand a bit of abuse. This is a quintessential player’s guitar.” - Jack Higginbotham
Here are a few of our favorite specs, at a glance:
- all mahogany body (just like others in our "Standard" family of instruments)
- bolt-on maple neck
- rosewood fretboard (with bird inlays!)
- thin satin finish (3 available colors at launch: Vintage Cherry, Turquoise, Charcoal)
- 85/15 "S" pickups
The SE CE 24 Standard Satin is instantly comfortable, super resonant, and punches far beyond its weight class with its modest price point. Have a listen to the demo below!
