JB/59 PRS SE Great

[JerryRatpack]

I have had these pups in for a month or so and I freakin Love them.

The Pick Harmonics that come out now great ! I never could pull the harmonics out of this guitar with the stock pups like this.

Just a shout out to Seymour and his people : Great job ! Its nice to get a product that actually performs and makes my guitar playing that much more fun !

The Seth set is great in the older Santana Se models as well. So is the 59 set, and the JBA2 with a pearly gates neck.

Sold my humbucker-equiped PRS SE Singlecut last week. Keeping the P90-equiped Soapbar and One. 'Nuff said.

When a guitar sounds good, it encourages the player to play better.

JB is great in an SE but a Rio BBQ and Texas is even better.

I can't remember how long ago, but I have had these pups in for months now, and I love them. It brings out more character and dynamics ( pinch harmonics too ) . I didn't think the originals were bad, but just wanted a little more and I got it with the Seymour Duncan pups.

Now, just to clarify, I am not using amps, I am using both a kemper and an axe fx 2 , and going into FRFR . Adam 7x to be specific.
Mostly i am playing lead tones . depending on my patch settings, obviously can change the sounds dramatically. So I assume with a normal amp, you just eq it to taste and it will be great..

Although the JB can be bright at times, it is very manageable using the volume knobs and tone knobs. But, I rarely need to do that.
The 59 in the neck does an amazing job. I am sure there are many pups that are fantastic as well, but this was my first pup swap on any guitar and I don't have plans on changing them out.

But I use this guitar as much as I use my more expensive guitars now, and some patches, I like the 245 SE better...

So those of you just on the fence to buy an SE 245 , I highly recommend it. And those who own the guitar already, the JB /59 combo
Is a winner.

I did a you tube with my iPad as the camera and internal mic, so not the best recording / mix, but it is live in the room, and if you can tolerate my repetitive licks ( I had this lead in my head, and was working it out to a few backing tracks ) and occasional bad notes
