Hello everyone,
I have just picked up a 1997 PRS McCarty (S/N 734630). Got it for a good price and its in pretty good condition for its age. There is some tarnish on the hardware which I intend to use Music Nomad polish to sort out. What is bothering me though is that there are small cracks around the pickup ring screws (most of them anyway). What I would like to know is what kind of rings they are? Where they made by PRS at the time or where they stock items from somewhere else?
The rings are not flat which new PRS rings appear to be -at least according to a description I read.
Basically I want to know if I can just find some DiMarzio or Seymour Duncun or what ever rings that will fit?
Any advise is much appreciated,
Cheers,
Nick
