    I agree with this.

      Does my PRS already have the treble bleed from the factory? I like being able to preserve treble while rolling the volume down and if possible not remove bass for the whole travel of the volume knob.
      Here's the schematic for SE Custom wiring: https://d159anurvk4929.cloudfront.ne...schematics.pdf

      No idea if it's treble bleed. Still wrapping my head around treble bleed vs 50s wiring vs modern wiring. Maybe someone more knowledgeable can look at the link and decipher what's going on with it.

        Yeah, I kinda hijacked and meant more “it might be right for me.”

        it’s such a weird pickup the JB. In the se24 for what I’d like (still not 100% sure there) I think it’ll either be the missing link, or a colossal failure.

        I don’t think a custom would be such a gamble.

          Stock pickups can be lowered flush with the rings for more clarity. Both can be dialed in to get warm PAF-ish tones and bright spanky tones. The neck pup is a bit middier than the bridge pup. Lots of tones to be had with the guitar volume getting turned down from 10.

            Right now at our practice spot I'm running it through my 95 Mesa tremoverb head and mesa 2x12 cab that's in my signature into a Behringer powered pedal board with a couple Behringer pedals: delay, tube overdrive and a Tc electronic corona chorus and line 6 g30 wireless and when I first got the prs before my other guitarist lowered the string height, on the Mesa I had to lower the bass control on the Mesa on the red channel to around 9 o clock and increase the treble and presence on the red channel. Amp is running 8 Ohm.
            I ran my S2 through a mesa road king in my 90s band. The best tones were with a Saturday Night Special set. I still run a lot of Mesa profiles on my Kemper, but haven't gigged since covid hit

              We had practice last night and I decided to bring my Partscaster that's in my signature and compared to the PRS the Partscaster caster was more brighter. On the PRS with lowering the pickups do I lower them both to be level with pickup rings first? Is there a method with adjusting the individual pole pieces? I've never done this before
