My guitar is not 24-08. I only like to make the modification.
The Custom 24-08 is wired like a 408. The pickups are a variant of the 85/15; they are different. They work like the 408 pickups, but in a normal looking package. The slug coil is tapped in humbucker mode. It is active and not tapped in single coil mode (typically the screw coil is used when pickups are split).
You won't be able to get that exact functionality with a regular set of 85/15 pickups.The next best thing is to add a coil split switch for each pickup, using resistors to ground (1.1k neck, 2.2k bridge).
I´m new in PRS guitars I only by my first core this year.You don't have to use the resistors, but it has been the PRS method for several years. It allows some signal of the cut coil to come through, which makes the sound a bit fuller than a pure coil split plus it's a little more hum resistant. The volume doesn't stay as even as with a 408, but it's much better than a pure split, especially if you're running a compressor and overdrive.
Thank You. I would like to explore more my CU 24Sure. It would be similar to the McCarty: http://prsguitars.com/csc/schematics/2017/mccarty_2017.pdf...
... but you would put the splits on different push/pull switches, as on the 594: http://prsguitars.com/csc/schematics/2017/594_2017.pdf

It is helpful. Thank you! Ultimately ive decided to just get rid of the "08" part of it all together. Im going to set it up with just the volume, tone, and 3-way selector. the problem im having now is finding out how to install the Bass pickup. It literally has one damn wire lol but ill keep looking.
