For the last few years i have been using the dirt cheap stainless triangle picks.

Out of my DC-22 , CU22 soapie, and 2006 Singlecut, the Singlecut is my favorite. Especially since i replaced the classic tuners with Kluson Revolutions.
On my DC-22 the bridge posts are a pretty tight fit and dont tend to turn randomly when ive taken the bridge off.
On my Singlecut however the posts are a loose fit in the threads, and when i take the bridge off its very hard to stop them turning and messing up my string height. (both are...
Just an update after a few weeks of the new tuners - guitar is way easier to get perfectly in tune, stays in tune far better, and the tone has improved. Theres this whole new layer of resonance now. Guitar is playing and sounding the best it ever has:)
Success! - Kluson Revolution locking no collars did fit the existing headstock perfectly, and have way less slop than the stock singlecut tuners. I left the existing bushings in and just pushed the new posts through them so i cant confirm if the bushings are the same external size.
Turns out i was confusing the collar with the bushing. Ive ordered some Kluson Revolution no collars, and hopefully i can use them with the guitars existing press fit bushings.
Your SE PRS is probably better assembled than the American Gibson. With 2k to spend should get get a nice 2nd hand Core CU24, and should have cash left for a tuning head upgrade if you find you dislike the Core tuners.
Im a raving PRS fanboy, but i really dont like PRS tuners. My DC has phase 3's, my CU22 has phase 2's, my SC has traditional style, and they all suck compared to the Schecter locking tuners i had on a Hellraiser that was sold to fund PRS's. As far as i know SE tuner replacements dont fit...

I want to upgrade the tuning heads on my 2006 core singlecut. I would like to get tuners that are high ratio, locking, and are drop in replacements - no new screwholes or routing out the post holes. No prs tuners, they are all too low ratio.
What tuners are compatible?
As far as i can tell the PRS trem is a Strat trem with three changes.
1. Notches cut into the bridge screws
2. Bridge saddles that are unable to jiggle around.
3. Straighter string pull over the nut.
These three changes basically fix all the problems of the Strat trem.
