    PRS shop doesn’t ship to Australia unfortunately. Have to use our local dealers which are useless. I’ll check out the 59/09s online. Still like the sound of the \m/ pickups also. I mainly play downtuned to C or C#

    they sounded great in all the videos I’ve seen. Hunting a pair down in Aus is going to be a tough. We have plenty of stockists here but they basically only carry SE guitars

    McCarty Owners

    Hi all, I’ve got a wood library McCarty and I’m playing with pickups at the moment. 57/08 stock pickups which I love, however I want to try something different as I’m more a hard rock/metal player. I swapped out the bridge for a tremonti treble and it was a touch bright (no problem, put it in...

    57/08 equivalent?

    Thanks for the info. Yeah based on the magnets and output, I've been looking at the Slash set, plus the 57 sets.

    57/08 equivalent?

    Hi all, I've got a McCarty with 57/08 pickups in it which I love the clarity of, and they seem to work well for hard rock going through my EVH head. I'm looking to replace the pickups in my other PRS (which currently have the Duncan Custom), and although I'd prefer to install 57/08 in it, the...

    I got lucky with my Duncan’s. They came with pickup rings. I had to shave the ears down also.

    Mannmade locking tuner issues

    Yeah I have. Unfortunately I’ve checked everything. I put the stock SE tuners back on the guitar with another fresh set of strings and it holds tune perfectly again.

    Mannmade locking tuner issues

    Yeah, they’re all stretched as usual. Same gauge. I’m not new to locking tuners with the thumbscrews, as I own two USA models which I’ve never had a problem with so I know I’m using the Mannmade tuners correctly. In saying that, ALL strings are going out of tune. Like I said, I didn’t have...

    Mannmade locking tuner issues

    I’ve checked the thumb screws numerous times and they’re locked solid on the strings. I’ve got 2 USA models that don’t have this problem with phase locking tuners. I haven’t changed the string gauge at all. I’ve been using the same gauge for a long time.

    Mannmade locking tuner issues

    Hi all, I'm having some tuning issues after installing Mannmade locking tuners. I've installed them on my PRS SVN, and now I'm having major tuning issues. So much so where I can't play for 30 seconds without it going out of tune. So - The SVN was professionally setup with the stock SE tuners...
