This is a 2003 Paul Reed Smith CE24, built in Stevensville, Maryland. The CE24 blends PRS’s trademark refinement with the lively feel of a bolt-on design. The maple neck gives it a crisp, articulate attack, while the mahogany body and maple top deliver warmth and balance.

It’s finished in a striking Bright Red gloss, and has been well cared for — a clean example from the early-2000s golden period of CE production.

Early-2000s CE24s are prized for their Maryland craftsmanship and tonal versatility. The HFS/Vintage Bass pairing offers a broad dynamic range — glassy cleans, tight mids, and harmonically rich drive — all with the unmistakable PRS feel.
