PRS SE CE24 Standard Satin Vintage Cherry (2026)

This is what PRS Guitars say about the SE CE24 Standard Satin:

Professional Performance at an Accessible Price

First introduced in 1988, the CE has become a cornerstone of the PRS lineup, prized for the snap and responsiveness of its bolt-on construction. The SE CE 24 Standard is the most affordable CE to date, combining an all-mahogany body with a bolt-on maple neck for a balanced and articulate tone. A thin satin finish on the mahogany body enhances resonance, while the maple neck’s semi-gloss finish ensures a smooth, comfortable playing experience. PRS 85/15 “S” pickups deliver clear, extended highs and lows with excellent balance, and the push/pull tone control adds flexible coil-tap options.

Designed as a true workhorse, this instrument offers standout tone, playability, and visual appeal—making it an excellent choice for beginners and seasoned professionals alike, all at a highly accessible price point.

Classic CE design, exceptional SE value

The SE CE24 Standard Satin delivers the unmistakable CE heritage in a more accessible package, staying true to the bolt-on construction that shaped the original. Its all-mahogany body produces warm, well-balanced tone with impressive sustain, while the satin finish provides a broken-in feel and lets the guitar resonate naturally. Finished in Vintage Cherry, it captures the timeless style and stage-ready presence PRS is known for.

Clear, versatile tone with 85/15 “S” pickups

Loaded with PRS 85/15 “S” pickups, the SE CE24 offers articulate response across the full tonal range. From sparkling cleans to powerful overdrive, these uncovered humbuckers deliver clarity and punch. A push/pull tone control enables coil-split functionality, unlocking single-coil character and a total of six distinct tones from a straightforward control layout. Versatile and adaptable, it’s built for any genre or playing environment.

Smooth, fast-playing neck

The bolt-on maple neck with PRS Wide Thin carve is designed for speed and comfort. Its satin finish promotes effortless movement, while the 24-fret rosewood fretboard with signature bird inlays adds classic PRS character. A 25" scale length offers familiar string tension, making this neck equally suited for rhythm work and expressive lead playing—comfortable enough for extended sessions.

Stage-ready hardware you can trust

PRS-designed tuners and the patented PRS tremolo bridge provide reliable tuning stability and expressive performance. Nickel hardware pairs seamlessly with the Vintage Cherry finish for a refined yet road-worthy look. Complete with a PRS gig bag and factory-strung with PRS Classic 10–46 strings, the SE CE24 Standard Satin is ready for the stage, studio, or rehearsal space right out of the case.
