PRS – Pickup Upgrade

I’m still not really sure about these.  There’s certainly nothing seriously wrong with them, in fact they’re terrific for money.  I just can’t put my finger on it.

Anyway, I’ve had this one on the bench before and already done quite a bit to it, I’ve dressed the frets and performed a full setup on it so it plays really nicely.  The owner’s now come up with an option to make it sound as good as it looks and feels…  A nice set of Seymour Duncan pickups.

To add a little flexibility I’m also changing the pots’ for “Push Push” ones, so that each pickup can be coil tapped to act and sound as a single coil.

There it is.  I’ve replaced the wiring with better quality wire along with a nice Orange Drop tone cap’

Once the strings are back just a tweek to set the pickup heights.  Of course the only real way to judge that is to plug it in….

There it is, looking, playing and now sounding great.
