Is PRS using fixed version of the Spin a split?

The Dimebucker sounds great split. The EQ sounds about the same but it dials the pickup back a bit. My Strattiest split is my Fralin Pure PAF. Holy Grails gets an honorable mention for a great split Strat sound also.

Custom Custom, APH-1 and Gibson '57 in the neck of my Traditional Pro was surprisingly good.

The Hybrid, Custom Custom and the Alnico II Pro all sound good split, especially in conjunction with another split humbucker. The only humbuckers I really don't like split are the Little Humbuckers.

I have not tried myself but the demos of the Screamin Demon split sound really nice. I think The Custom and also the 59/Custom hybrid are have been mentioned in this forum to have a nice split sound, but again I have not tried them.

I like the Custom and the 59 in the neck. During the great SDUGF Riff-Off, everyone was surprised when I revealed I had used a split 59 in a Les Paul neck for a riff that was very snappy.
