About this product
Overview & specifications
PRS S2 Custom 24 – Fire Red Burst
The PRS S2 Custom 24 Fire Red Burst takes the DNA of the original PRS Custom 24 and refines it into a streamlined, gig-ready instrument with the unmistakable PRS feel. Built with the classic maple top and mahogany back combination and PRS’s comfortable double-cut body shape, this S2 delivers a lively, resonant response with plenty of punch—ideal for players who need one guitar to cover everything from tight rhythm work to expressive lead lines.
A big part of the S2 appeal is how naturally it plays. The 25" (635 mm) scale length sits right in the sweet spot between snap and slink, and the Pattern Thin mahogany neck gives you a fast, modern grip that still feels substantial. Add 24 frets and PRS’s excellent upper-fret access, and you’ve got a guitar that invites adventurous chords, smooth legato, and confident bends—whether you’re practising at home, tracking in the studio, or hitting the stage on the Gold Coast.
Tonally, the Maryland, USA-wound PRS 85/15 pickups are all about clarity and extended range. You get tight lows, articulate mids, and a top end that cuts without getting harsh—perfect for modern rock, pop, progressive, fusion, and anything that needs definition under gain. Paired with a 5-way blade switch, the S2 Custom 24 offers a broad set of pickup combinations so you can move from bold, full-bodied drive tones to brighter, more detailed textures with a quick flick.
PRS hardware that stays stable on stage
The PRS Patented Tremolo is designed for comfortable feel and reliable return-to-pitch, while the Phase III Locking Tuners with wing buttons add fast string changes and confident tuning stability. Finished in high-gloss nitro, the Fire Red Burst has a premium look that suits everything from modern rigs to classic backlines.

At Guitar World Gold Coast, we love the PRS S2 Custom 24 because it’s a serious “do-it-all” electric guitar: refined enough for studio work, comfortable for long rehearsals, and versatile enough to handle multiple set lists without changing instruments.
