PRS Guitars Announces Kanami Limited Edition Custom 24-08PRS Guitars today announced the Kanami Limited Edition Custom 24-08. This is the first signature model for guitarist Kanami Tono of Japan’s hard-rock band: BAND-MAID. Kanami is BAND-MAID’s lead guitarist and has been playing PRS for more than a decade. This limited edition is based off her most recent PRS Custom 24-08 guitar but, most notably, boasts PRS’s 85/15 humbuckers and PRS Brushstroke birds."PRS has always been an essential part of BAND-MAID's sound ever since I started playing the Custom 24,” said Kanami Tono. “When thinking about the specs of my signature model, the control layout of the Custom 24-08 was the best choice as a base, because many BAND-MAID songs require the high E note on the 24th fret, and I often switch between humbucker and single-coil sounds. As for the color, I chose Trampas Green Burst. This is the color of my first PRS I bought when I decided to become a professional guitarist with BAND-MAID. One of my dreams to have my own signature model has come true here, and I would say this guitar is an extension of my first PRS. What an honor it is!"The PRS Kanami Limited Edition was soft launched at this weekend’s PRS Guitars & American Vintage Guitar Show in Shibuya, Tokyo. Only 200 of these instruments will be made. Each guitar is hand-signed by Kanami on the guitar’s backplate.For complete specifications, video, and more, please visit https://prsguitars.com/ and follow @prsguitars on Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, and X to stay in the conversation.The post PRS Guitars Announces Kanami Limited Edition Custom 24-08 first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.
