Paul Reed Smith PRS Custom 24-08 Mango Top Limited Edition in Purple Mist

Ethereal and evocative, the PRS Custom 24-08 Mango Top Limited Edition in Purple Mist offers a stunningly fluid look that highlights the "bee's-wing" figuring of the mango wood. The delicate purple hues seep into the broader grain patterns of the top, creating a three-dimensional depth that is further enhanced by the high-gloss nitro finish. This limited-run instrument provides the ultimate "Swiss Army Knife" electronics package in a finish that is as rare and captivating as the tonewoods themselves. The PRS Custom 24-08 Mango Top Limited Edition takes the foundational versatility of the Custom 24 and expands it into a tonal universe of eight distinct sounds. For this 2026 limited release, PRS has swapped the traditional maple top for highly figured Mango wood, providing a unique visual signature characterized by broader, more irregular grain patterns that offer a sophisticated alternative to standard flame or quilt. The "08" in its name refers to the eight specific pickup combinations available through the intuitive switching system. Featuring two mini-toggle coil-tap switches, the Custom 24-08 allows players to split the humbuckers into true single coils for crisp, articulate snaps, or keep them full for a thick, humbucking roar—all while maintaining volume balance across all eight settings. This model is further refined with a Ziricote fretboard and matching headstock veneer, adding a touch of exotic luxury and a smooth, glass-like playing feel. Equipped with PRS TCI (Tuned Capacitance and Inductance) pickups, the Custom 24-08 Mango Limited Edition is a precision-tuned instrument designed for the player who demands every possible sound from a single, stunning guitar.
