    Vela Bridge the same as the Myles Kennedy Signature & NF 53 Bridge?

    I could defintely see interest in modding a Vela/MKS and NF3 if the bridge material was aluminum for one and steel for the other. I also don't have any qualms with the Vela bridge, but aren't S2 hardware not up to the same standard as Core model hardware? I might be mistaken if this isn't the...

    Vela Bridge the same as the Myles Kennedy Signature & NF 53 Bridge?

    Ah I see, thank you all for answering my question about top wrapping. Just coming from my Les Pauls (all top wrapped), even tho im using 8's for all them, my Les Pauls feel slinkier due to what I thought could be the top wrap than my McCarty 594. If there was a way for me to get my 594 to be...

    Top wrapping a McCarty 594?

    Has anyone tried to top wrap a McCarty 594? I come from a background of playing mostly Les Pauls, and like to top wrap them for a more slinky feeling. I already use 8s, and prefer not to go any higher in string gauge. If you have would you let me know how to go about it on the McCarty 594...

    PRS Wiring Mods Resource Thread

    Hi everyone, I'm a new user here and relatively new to the PRS guitar world! I had a Special Semi Hollow for a year or so now and it's one of my main guitars. I recently saw that PRS released a Modern Eagle V into the Core line up, and was wondering if anyone had the schematic for the wiring...
