    so it seems :

    6) neck
    7) outer coils neck and bridge --> more glassy
    8) outer coils neck and bridge --> more basy
    9) inner coils
    10) neck

    sound examples from 6 to 10 -- recorded with condense mic through my amp (2 feet away) - and just reverb for ambience https://soundcloud.com/lotik/1a-1/s-bN1IWIgQKDn.

    Is it true, you are using only duncans and BLACK and GREEN always go together during wiring?
    Did you give color code for PRS 'PRS has 3 wires - Black - Red - White' even though we are talking about duncans?
    I advise you to test your wiring now:
    Take a piece of metal, screwdriver, or any other thing, and sweep over every coil (some polepiecs of it) in every configuration. [you could also knock, but knocking has too much output to differentiate in most cases].
    See if you dont get more puzzled by the result of that test...

    WOW - I did that and it sounds great. 9,8,7 is no longer halftone and quiet.

    THOUGH I have no Idea what it is (in parallel, coils, - I'm not verse on that at all )

    I've rotated the magnet in the neck but didn't change the wiring.

    According to this guy (simonbarsinister) https://forum.seymourduncan.com/foru...duncan-pickups red and white should be together --> but previous diagram says green and black

    Did you flip the magnet for the bridge?
    I did not. If I do would it alter Pegasus sound in the full-bridge humbucker mode?

    I will have a look if you can provide the specs sheet of that switch and if you can label your wires that you are showing in this picture...
    many greetings
    Thank you AlexS7320

    PRS has 3 wires - Black - Red - White
    and according to the below image that's how I've wired it.

    Black --> WHITE SD
    RED --> GREEN + BLACK SD
    White --> RED SD

    and ground to the ground.

    Position 10 humbucker bridge
    Position 9 Outside coils of both pickups in parallel
    Position 8 Series single coils
    Position 7 Parallel single coils
    Position 6 humbucker neck



    Positions 9 to 7 just sound out of place and very weak.

    Thank you!

  • pegasus and sentient installed in PRS CE24 with 5 way rotary

    After listening Fishman Modern Fluence in ESP I want to get my PRS CE24 a little more readable/clear on high gain.

    ways wanted to install those in my CE but didn't realize it's that complicated (for me).

    In humbucker mode 1 and 5 they do sound great. In 2.3.4 it sounds like half volume off .

    Can someone tell me what I did wrong? Thank you!

    I've followed this guide https://www.thegearpage.net/board/in...iring.1092806/
