I entered an online raffle and won this rather gorgeous PRS SE CE24.

Spankingly good Christmas present if I say so myself. Plays like a dream and sounds awesome.

Competition is by Shred Comps, which is run by a band I follow called the Kris Barras Band who are doing this as a side venture to bring in more income. Facebook post of the handover today linked below:

I need to source a trem arm for this as it didn't come with one. I suspect the guitar was old stock in the shop who is associated with the competitions and the arm probably went missing at some point (QC label says it passed in 2023 so makes it a year old but it is in new condition otherwise).
 
@baimun - iirc you're a PRS officianado, would you know what size trem arm in terms of mm this thing needs please? Finding anything other than it's a bespoke PRS trem on their site is proving challenging
 
I don't know if the SE arms are a different size.... but I know I was able to use a typically threaded arm from a Fender into the push-in spot on a PRS trem (because I wanted a cream colored end on trem arm instead of black).

Let me know if you can't find one that fits... I might have a spare from my DGT.
 
@baimun - Just tried the trem arm off my Strat clone and that's too big at either the threaded end or the tip if I remove the plastic cap. Checking with a ruler I'd say that arm is 5.5 mm, it's definitely under 6mm. Thanks for the offer but that'll be silly money to send to the UK. I am getting Amazon vouchers for Xmas so if I can find what size I need, there are plenty of generic ones on there to chose from.
 
It's interesting to me what competition means in different places. Where I'm from a competition is people competing against each other. A race or, who is the best at something. Every time I see the thread title, competition prize, I'm imagining a battle of the bands but, just for guitar players or, you had to fight other guitar players to the death to win it. :grin:
