This SE CE 24 BU is a seriously impressive guitar for the money. It’s a great ST-style platform with a warmer, richer tone thanks to the mahogany body and those surprisingly versatile 85/15 pickups. It's perfect for gigging musicians or players looking for a well-built, reliable instrument without a premium price tag.

CONS

- • Rosewood fingerboard may feel a bit dry; conditioning is recommended for optimal feel.
- • Coil-splitting, while useful, isn't the most nuanced or inspiring single-coil tone.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 85/15 pickups offer a more balanced and slightly warmer tone with increased clarity and articulation, lacking the sometimes harshness of vintage Strat pickups.
The wide-thin neck profile is generally comfortable, but the 42.9 mm nut width might feel a little wider than some players accustomed to narrower necks.
This PRS tremolo is a more traditional, two-point system offering smoother, more subtle vibrato effects, unlike the extreme dive-bomb capabilities of a Floyd Rose.
