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.
I don't know if it's just me, but after playing the guitars all weekend, thru a Mesa Triple Rec, & a Marshall 2555X Silver Jubilee, I walked away thinking that the 85/15 pickups sound very lifeless, flat, harsh and sterile.
I have the following SD pickups laying around that are possible contenders for the PRS guitars:
-SH2-n
-SH-4b
-TB-4b
-SH-5b
-SHPG-1 set
-SD Pegasus & Sentient set
However, I've decided to swap out the stock magnets in the SD's for roughcast A4's in the bridge pickups, and polished A4's on the neck pickups.
I know alot of us on here swap magnets out, and I've actually installed A4 magnets in a Seth Lover set with successful results. I'm just curious if anyone has anyone installed A4 magnets on the pickups that I've listed?
If so, what were your results?
