DW CE 24 Hardtail Limited Edition
Dustie's Favorite Features
The DW CE 24 Hardtail Limited Edition brings Dustie Waring’s signature specs to a tremless guitar. Dustie Waring’s signature model starts with the PRS CE 24 bolt-on platform and includes a satin-finished maple neck, maple fretboard, a slightly modified Pattern Thin neck carve (Waring’s carve is slightly thinner front to back), and - unique to this limited edition – a hardtail bridge.
The pickups and electronics are also unique to Waring’s signature axe. The pickups are Waring’s signature Mojotone Dustie Waring Gen 2 Tomahawk pickups. Made with superior quality Alnico 5 magnets and a special winding technique, DW Gen 2 Tomahawks have plenty of output and big bottom end while remaining articulate and clear - a notable quality for high gain pickups. Paired with a volume and tone control and 5-way blade pickup selector, the DW CE 24 Hardtail is menacing, sophisticated, and addictive to play.
“Having a hardtail option of my signature model is incredibly important to me. This setup is something I use all the time, and PRS has once again knocked it out of the park with their attention to detail. Doesn’t hurt that these guitars just look amazing!” – Dustie Waring, Between the Buried & Me
The DW CE 24 Hardtail Limited Edition comes with satin black hardware and is available in six color options, including Waring’s signature finish: Waring Burst. There is no limit to the number of DW CE 24 Hardtail guitars that will be made, but the order window is limited to January 10 – December 31, 2023. Contact your Authorized PRS Dealer to place your order.
