    PRS 85/15 replacement pickups & alnico 4 magnet swap results?

    Thank's for your input. I decided last Friday that I was going to swap out the A2 magnet on the 85/15's to see how they sound with a rough cast A4 mag in the bridge, and polished A4 mag in the neck.

    PRS 85/15 replacement pickups & alnico 4 magnet swap results?

    What I'm wanting out of this guitar, is to find a set of pickups that accommodate the guitar and help make the guitar sound more fuller than it does. The neck pickup, no matter how I adjust it, has way more output than the bridge pickup. The other reason I'm looking to swap out the pickups is...

    PRS 85/15 replacement pickups & alnico 4 magnet swap results?

    I have a 2014 & 2017 Core PRS Custom 24, and have decided the stock 85/15 pickups in the guitars are just not cutting it anymore.

    PRS pickup wiring...why is this so difficult!?

    Is there anyone on here who is familiar with the conductor wiring on PRS pickups? This crap is really frustrating and I don't understand why PRS can't provide wiring diagrams with the pickups they sell.

    Wiring humbuckers to the 3-way switch?

    Re: Wiring humbuckers to the 3-way switch? No, 2 humbuckers, 2 master volumes, except I want to wire the pickups to the three way switch like what you see in the picture attached.

    Parson Street magnet swap?

    Any of you guys who use the Parson Street humbuckers in your guitars ever remove the stock A2 & A5 magnets and experiment with A3, A4, & A8 magnets? Thinking about trying A4 magnets in my set and just thought I would see if anyone has had some positive results.
