    Sorry, I didn't see this question until now. I used the Schaller M6 locking tuners and yes, they match the existing holes.

    SE245 tobacco sunburst finish variation

    Well, I only have a one of one sampling, but my SE 245 looks like the one on the right.

    Introducing the New S2 Series - Made In Maryland - Starting at $1,179

    I really like the concept of the S2 series guitars, the only real problem I have with them is that I am not particularly enamored with the current options. I suppose in doing something like this PRS has to start some where and I can understand the case for the model options that were chosen. I...

    Stoptail Bridges: Adjustable vs. Non-Adjustabe?

    I like an adjustable bridge for comfort when I play. The non adjustable stoptail makes me hold my picking hand in a way that bothers my wrist. I noticed it most when I was palm muting. For whatever reason, an adjustable stoptail (I have two Schroder stoptails) feels more natural and I don't...

    Coil tapped DGT vs. McCarty

    Interesting, I hadn't looked at the MC58 schematic.

    Coil tapped DGT vs. McCarty

    The DGT coil tap runs the side of the pickup that gets grounded in the split through a resistor. The end result is that the overall output from the coil being split is closer to what a standard single coil pickup would be and that makes for a more convincing single coil tone. The McCarty split...

    I used the pin type tremel-no, but at the time is was the only option available. Now I would get the large clamp type. I had to enlarge the spring hole with a drill bit to use the pin type. The 3X3 Locking Schaller tuners are drop in replacement for the SE tuners. No drilling and the screw...

    13s on a SE Stoptail, what are my bridge options?

    I agree with this. I have two Schroeder bridges notched to the 10" radius with no complaints.

    The default radius on the Schroeder bridge is 11" and it comes without notches. They will notch it for you to the correct radius for a 5$ fee or you can do it yourself if you are so inclined. For me it was worth the extra 5$ to have them do it. :cool:

    With the metric Tone Pros studs there is a little side to side play on the posts (non threaded side) with the Schroeder bridge as well.

    The Schroeder bridge should work fine with the stock studs. I use the Tone Pros locking studs to get rid of any forward tilt on the wraparound bridge, and once you get everything adjusted properly your bridge is locked into place you can take all of the strings off and the bridge won't fall off...
