The edges of the vividly coloured veneer are really very clean and it’s the only colour on the guitar: the sides, back and entire neck (with the exception of the rosewood fingerboard) are clear gloss coated. Compare that with the CE 24 – which, again, uses a lesser dished top carve than the Core models – and you’ll see actually how ‘shallow’ the SE carve is. That shallow violin carve to the figured maple top (actually a veneer over solid maple) does add a little more of the real PRS style, but the light dishing occurs in just a small, approximately 30mm wide portion around the edge the majority of the top is flat. It remains a ‘do-it-all’ platform, combining elements of the obvious classics with what is now a hugely recognisable aesthetic. Not surprisingly, the SE Custom centres on the classic PRS ingredients: a 635mm (25-inch) scale length, 24 frets, vibrato and dual humbuckers that can be coil-split.
