Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 Birds of a Feather Limited Charcoal Microburst
Serial Number: 0430441
Weight: 7.6 lbs.
The PRS Custom 24 Birds of a Feather Limited Edition in Charcoal Microburst is a rarity, with only 360 built worldwide in 2026, pairing PRS's original defining model with the Birds of a Feather inlay — a distinctive interpretation of PRS's classic bird design previously reserved exclusively for Private Stock instruments. The mahogany body with an artist-grade figured maple top and scraped binding is finished in high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer in Charcoal Microburst, and at a resonant, well-balanced 7.6 lbs., this Custom 24 has the look and feel of a genuine collector's statement piece.
"I wanted to design an inlay that was simple and easy to read from across the room or on a stage but was also uniquely PRS... For me, this was a new way of looking at inlay design, using the woods to create movement and space." — Paul Miles, Director of Manufacturing, PRS
The set mahogany neck carries PRS's Pattern Thin profile (53/64" at the 1st fret, 57/64" at the 12th) for fast, familiar playability, topped with an ebony fretboard featuring the Birds of a Feather inlay in figured maple, a 10" radius across 24 frets and the classic 25" scale length. A 1 11/16" PRS nut leads to PRS Phase III locking tuners with wing buttons in nickel, and the ebony-veneer headstock carries the prefactory eagle logo and a dedicated "Custom" truss rod cover. PRS's patented Gen III tremolo delivers remarkable tuning stability and resonant sustain.
Electronics come from a pair of PRS DMO pickups, delivering exceptional clarity, balance, and vocal response across the frequency range, wired to volume, tone, and a 5-way blade selector for a broad range of humbucking and single-coil-inspired tones suited to virtually any musical setting. Whether you're a collector drawn to an inlay previously reserved for Private Stock instruments, a player who wants the original Custom 24 formula in a genuinely rare limited run, or someone building out a serious PRS collection, this Birds of a Feather Limited Edition delivers real scarcity alongside real playability. This Paul Reed Smith Custom 24 Birds of a Feather Limited Edition Charcoal Microburst (Serial #0430441, 1 of 360 made worldwide in 2026) includes a PRS hardshell case in black paisley.
