    Brand new Fiore - Feedback Humbucker issue

    @nyg86 , yes much better indeed. Following the same routine I have with my other PRS (nut sauce on nut and saddles) it is now very good. Can slightly detune, but we are talking cents detected by the Fractal, where some other tuners will still say it's fine, and after moderate abuse for a longer...

    se angelus bridge pins

    Nice to see guys. But the question is still not answered as why PRS PTC specs Presentation pins, when neither the Presentation or Traditional will fit straight of the box without any kind of modification involved... I leave the originals ones in there for now until next time. Also, I'm...

    se angelus bridge pins

    Nope Presentation ones are too small to stay in position, they fall all the way in, turn the guitar upside down, and they just fall :) It's like PRS used something in between these 2 styles on the A60E. Next time I'll take it to my tech, I'll ask him. For now the ones that were stock seem to be...

    se angelus bridge pins

    Well, I have news indeed :) Mine shows a date of: 5/2022 So, after I tried the Presentation-Style Pins from TUSQ that were way too thin, I got the Traditional Style Pins from TUSQ again. Guess, they won't fit either...this time it's too big, it stops about 5/6mm above the bridge and there is...

    se angelus bridge pins

    Well apparently not, according to customer services: "That is correct that we will use Presentation-sized bridge pins on SE Acoustic models. I cannot confirm if the specific Tusq bridge pins will work with the guitar since we do not officially endorse these aftermarket parts. If they do not fit...

    se angelus bridge pins

    FYI, I just received a brand new A60E and also ordered as suggested above the TUSQ Bridge pins (PP-2000-00 presentation) and to my surprise, they don't fit at all. They are absolutely too small diameter wise. Could PRS have changed their bridge on their 2022 production? If you look at the...

    PRSEurope instagram fail?

    Guess their community manager will need to be schooled on their acoustic range... Never seen a brand promoting another brand on their own instagram :D, PRS is definitely nice, as always! ;-)

    McCarty 594 vs Special SH22

    Hi all, Thought I’d ask the professionals here on this crucial question of the day: How do you compare the Core McCarty 594 (double cut) Vs the core Special Semi Hollow? (In terms of sounds, neck, pickups, differences, etc) I’ve got a 10top core special semi hollow that I absolutely adore...

    NGD Fiore Black Iris Mod

    No, I actually really like this chrome direct mount pickup :) What I would like to try tho, would be the volume/tone knobs from the DW CE24 Floyd. Anyone knows if these are available for purchase or which brand are they?

    NGD Fiore Black Iris Mod

    Hi @Aliboy , To be honest, this didn't really strike me as overly bright. Brighter than my special semi hollow, yes, but again, the SSH because it's semi hollow is of course darker. If I compare the Fiore single coils (neck+middle) to the Xotic XSC-1 single coils, it's a tad brighter maybe...

    NGD Fiore Black Iris Mod

    So!! After a rocky start (faulty microphonic Humbucker, and these vintage locking tuner not staying in tune), I can finally celebrate a NGD here!! The humbucker has been swapped for a brand new one that PRS Europe kindly sent. I also upgraded the tuners to the Phase III (I just love them on my...

    Tele?!?!

    Yes it’s the owl logo from the backdrop currently used on stage. The more I look at it, the more I see my black Fiore but with the tele shape Sign me up if it ever gets released! Love it. Some said that McKnight reached out to PRS, saying it was a one off, but i don’t buy that. There’s a...

    Brand new Fiore - Feedback Humbucker issue

    Thanks @Rider1260 , looks fine to me! Yeah, the one thing that Im really surprised at the moment, is how bad the Fiore stays in tune, especially when using the vibrato. I can abuse both my custom 24 and Special Semi Hollow way beyond what would be acceptable, with minor if not any, issue in...
