Anybody have insight on what these pickups are all about? They're in many of the PRS SE Santana models, but info is pretty lacking on them even from PRS.
I have two Santana SEs right now, and the one with "Santana" pickups (as shown on the baseplate stickers) sounds MILES better than the one with "245" pickups. Classic, huge, sweet, responsive, good cleans, killer dirt, subtle nuances, all that good stuff. Has some real life and spank to it. The one with "245" pickups in comparison is more of a standard PAF sound.
So what are they? Anyone know the output level, magnet type, techie stuff like that? Apparently PRS already had 245s going in the Santana's in the 2010s and then developed this "S" pickup at some point. Think they'd take to a coil tap like the 85\15s and many others do?
