That would make sense. I picked up a good deal on a set for my older CE hunt because I liked them in the newer ones at the shops. Tried them in my KL33 and SAS. They really didn't mesh, nothing like the store demos in a CE. It really was the bridge that didn't gel with me as well. They were more modern and honestly too clear if that's even a thing? Well it is for a hobbyist player like me anyway.That surprised me at first when I read it. The 85/15 is the perfect bridge pickup for my CU24 PS.
But it makes sense: The CU24 is a very different guitar, with a more focused midrange.
As I understand it, the 85/15 was designed for the CU24. It makes perfect sense that it would work differently in one of the 22 fret, thicker-bodied models.
Both of those guitars really love a more PAF variety. I tried multiple sets from PRS and other winders. Most PAF worked pretty well, the bridge in both were still kinda picky, but lately I've been extra selective on bridge pickups for whatever reason.
