    DIY convert PRS SE tuners to locking tuners

    I like the smaller size a lot better. Any chance of sharing the ebay link. I might get some of those myself. Not sure I'm brave enough to actually do the mod, but I do have a pillar drill in the garage and REALLY like what you did there :)

    Coil tapping

    Coil split is where you only use one humbucker coil. Coil Tap is where you have the windings split with extra wires coming off of a coil that let you tap into a coil at different places in the winding. So you get one full coil and part of the second coil. I read about one PRS SE, might have...

    DIY convert PRS SE tuners to locking tuners

    BTW, You can buy the actual PRS locking thumbscrews online for $22. Only issue being that the few places that specify a size say they are M3.5-0.6. Part Number ACC-4349

    DIY convert PRS SE tuners to locking tuners

    That's really cool! I wish I had the skills to do that. You know you can get low profile metric thumbscrews, right?. You might have to cut your own slots in them though.

    Had to say goodbye......

    Losing a dog was terrible for me. They really are like your infinitely loyal, but more mature 4 year old kid that always forgives you in an instant and wants to be with you always. When my first two pugs got old it was incredibly tough. I'm not sure we would have gotten any more but we were...

    SE 245 vs SE 245 Standard

    Different SE models have different thickness bodies. I know the Zach Myers SE's that were made in Korea are thicker than some other models. I think the Bernie Marsden is another one. I think the Standards have thinner bodies.

    SE std 24 vs. Custom 24

    I don't own one but I do have a SE Zach Myers which is a semi hollow SE. I'd say the attack was slightly softer than a solid body. Acoustically the wound strings have more resonance but plugged in your probably not going to notice much difference. If there is it might be a tiny bit of reverb...

    SE std 24 vs. Custom 24

    Don't forget there is also the semi hollow version of the SE CU22 if you want light and don't mind losing 2 frets. Those are often under 7lbs and 1lb lighter than the regular ones.

    SE Tuning Instability

    I had the same thing with my Zach Myers. Replaced the nut and the problem went away. Only thing to watch for when removing the nut, at least in the Korean factory they smothered the whole underside of the nut with glue, not just a couple of dots slighly offset from the ends. They can be a real...

    PRS 2014 SE Custom 24 wiring issues

    First post...Strat to PRS

    I have no problems transitioning from 22 to 24 frets guitars. The 24 feels slightly different to the 22 fret Zach Myers. If your sitting down it does feel like your hand position is slightly more to the left and a little more comfortable to play. To be honest I'm not sure if that's down to the...

    NGD custom 22 SE pickup help needed

    The new 85/15 s pickups in SE's came out in 2017 I think. My 2018 SE CU24 Floyd has them in. My 2016 Zach Myers has old pickups, HFS which are kind of classic hot PAF/rock type pickups. I think most SE's before 2017 came with them. They didn't change the pickups in the newer model Zach Myers. I...
