How does the SE CE 24 Standard differ from the CE 24?

The Standard has an all-mahogany body with a satin finish, while the regular CE 24 adds a carved maple top and a gloss finish. Both use a bolt-on maple neck and the same 85/15 "S" pickup layout.

Does it have coil-tap tones?

Yes. The push/pull tone control splits the humbuckers for single-coil-style tones, giving more tonal options than a fixed two-humbucker setup.

Is the tremolo a locking system?

No. It is a non-locking tremolo, so it suits light vibrato rather than dive-bombing.

Is it good for beginners?

It is gig-ready and easy to play, but it is a step above a starter guitar. Beginners who want a long-term instrument will find it capable.

Owners of the SE CE 24 line generally praise the bolt-on neck feel, tuning stability and the range of tones from the coil tap. Many call it a strong value for a gigging guitar. Some find the stock pickups less refined than core PRS models.

What people mention

Neck feelPraisedPlayers like the smooth semi-gloss maple neck and its fast, comfortable profile.
PickupsMixedThe 85/15 "S" humbuckers are versatile with the coil tap, but some find them less refined than core PRS pickups.
Build qualityPraisedOwners describe a solid, well-finished instrument that holds up to gigging.
TremoloMixedThe non-locking tremolo works for light vibrato, but some players want more tuning stability under heavy use.
FinishCriticisedThe thin satin finish is liked for resonance but shows shine and wear where the arm rests.

About the PRS SE CE 24 Standard Ice Blue Metallic Satin

The PRS SE CE 24 Standard is a 6-string solidbody electric guitar from the SE series. The CE line was introduced in 1988 and is built around the snap and response of bolt-on construction. This model pairs an all-mahogany body with a bolt-on maple neck.

The mahogany body has a thin satin finish and a shallow violin top carve. The maple neck has a semi-gloss finish and a wide thin shape. The neck is scarfed and carries a rosewood fingerboard with bird inlays and 24 frets.

The 85/15 "S" pickups are set in a humbucker layout, one at the bridge and one at the neck. A 3-way toggle selects between them. The controls are a volume knob and a push/pull tone control that adds coil taps. The guitar comes with a gig bag.
