“A home-run of a guitar”: PRS’ $499 SE CE 24 Standard Satin

This PRS made quite the impression upon its release, and it made an even greater impression on Guitar World’s Paul Riario, who described the SE CE 24 Standard Satin as “a home-run of a guitar”.

So good to see you Paul! You’re the Walter Cronkite of gear demos and man you make a strong case for this Swiss Army knife! Thanks!

Pass the bong man...stop hugging

[@dBird214]

I love this guitar, just got one recently as well. Only mods I made were changing out the pups for seymour duncan blackwinters and taking out the tone knob

[@rjb7569]

Edit: just saw where you said the neck is wide and thin.
The neck...
Years ago when in my guitar buying days I tried a couple PRS guitars. Thought the necks were a bit thick for me.
What is the PRS neck situation today?

[@shanerose5348]

No one answered? Wide thin is tremonti, and the regular se 24s, 10" radius. If you search prs neck patterns and go to images you can find a chart of all the configurations.

always on the top

My favorite prs se is the 2004 antique white Prs se Eg hardtail with a fat neck! Tone monster!

[@damonstewart70]

Man Paul your playing and tone is freaking awesome. I remember when you first came on board...big improvement 😊

Amazing guitar and not expensive

[@PurposefulPorpoise]

PAUL'S RIPPIN!

[@KenjiEspresso]

Banging price for the tone and what kinda whammy is that?

[@TheSammyreynolds]

It's the PRS version of a synchronized trem. Stays in tune much better than Fenders.

[@mikeshanermusic]

Are there lefties and are they the same price?

[@seanrosedotcom]

I love mine.

[@mjamiep12]

Me too. Can't believe it for the price.

[@joshludge]

Hey I miss u man!

Back to the future... 😂

[@BHJ7115]

Still would never own one.

[@truckercowboyed2638]

Ok then why bother commenting

Regular $5000 PRS is a dull instrument . The one under $500 is still dull but way cheaper .

[@handel1111]

ugly guitars

[@rmcaudio7041]

It’s the playing that makes a guitar sound dull, not the guitar…..

[@updem]

I think a lot of what PRS goes for tone wise is a clear, defined sound that is a blank slate for you to shape it any way you want to. They are player instruments that leave it up to you on what your sound will be. For $500 this would be an absolutely killer studio guitar.

[@NothingNowhere-vu5oq]

I don't see any tonewood on this. Actual "tonewood" would be at least $3000 extra.
Yes, I'm making fun of Mr Smith.

[@SlyRyFry]

You gotta sniff the tone glue to hear the effects of the "tonewood"
