I've done a lot of research and figured it might be good to ask my specific question here. I have tried and had many pickups before, and have a few extras laying around. I'd like to select one for use on a just-completed kit guitar tribue to EVH. BYO Guitar shredder kit (5150 kramer style) -...

Hey guys, So I rewired my Les Paul with 2 push pulls. One is for bridge/neck split and the other I wanted to do a series parallel switch for the bridge pickup. I thought I wired it correctly but it acts weird. Basically, when in parallel bridge mode, the volume doesn't smoothly taper to 0. It...

Hey guys, I've experienced noise issues from live band playing for years, and certain venues have more noise than others. I have done a lot of research on this and think it is a combination of bad wiring, lights, TVs, etc. I use humbucker guitars primarily, and most of my pickups are pretty...

Hey all, I've done a but of research on this and couldn't quite find a definite answer, so here goes. Basically trying to decide what to put in my PVX kit guitar ( prs style kit with tune o matic). I used to own a set of prails and have triple shots, but ended up selling prails. Not sure why...

Hey all, I've been swapping pickups left and right on my SC245 and trying a couple Zhangbucker models I found used. I noticed at a recent show at a somewhat noisy venue that the guitar made MORE noise than normal, especially for a Humbucker. I've been testing at my house. I normally didnt...

Hey all, Been a while since I posted, sorry about that. Been quite busy. I have 2 Seymour Duncan Pickups and got a Schaller Megaswitch M, which is basically a 24-pad Superswitch in a smaller format. I couldn't find a pre-existing design I liked so came up with my own hybrid: Neck Series...

Hey guys, I've been swapping some pickups in my guitar, and have been flipping magnets in the humbuckers (its a PRS Custom with 5 way switch). After flipping the magnet, you loosen the wax that was holding everything still. Could this make the pickup susceptible to microphonic feedback? To...

History: Bascially I prepped the wood out, and was going to do the burst with spray cans from Stew Mac, but screwed up my first attempt. Then I sanded it down, sealed the top again, and attempted to sell it as a project. Then, I decided to use my water based wood dyes to do the sunburst top...

Ok so I want to install the PRails in my Custom 24, and use its normal 5 way rotary settings. I know that I can get the most out of these with different methods, but right now I am just sampling the pickups sound and want to see how it does with standard PRS tones ( Bridge HB, outside coils...
