pickup

Apologies if this is the dumbest question. I just tried to adjust the pole pieces on my covered Dragon pickups and realized they won't move. Is this the way the cover is and I'd have to remove the covers to adjust the poles? Or is this an anomaly? Never bothered to check on this since I bought...

Hey there, So, A bit of a follow up for everyone who has been so kind helping with pickup choices and what have you. I got my 57's, installed them covered - tuned up struck a chord... and was puzzled. None of the 'warmth' everyone talks about, instead VERY serious treble. Articulate and...

Hi, Imagine that, for whatever reason, Paul and company were only allowed to make one pickup. Which would you choose for them to make? Truth be told I'm pretty confused by their offerings and figure you folks (who know way more than me) might school me. Set your own criteria for choosing -...

So I ordered the core volume and push/pull tone pot from PRS HQ. Got and installed them today. Matched everything exactly - moved the resistors to the new tone, etc. The difference is startling. I haven't adjusted the pickups at all - I wanted to sort of A/B with the original, overseas...

Just found a 20th Anniv CE 22 in nice condition. http://imgur.com/a/KxQWi I was looking all over the internet about this color, but only found 2 sites with a similar one and they called Graphite Metallic. If anybody knows more about this color please let me know. Also not a big fan of Dragon 2...

So I'm looking at picking up an older CE model, most likely a 22. A lot of what I'm seeing doesn't have the stock pickups, so I'll be looking to replace those. The main question I have is..... What's some good pickups for coil splitting? I'll be playing mostly rock and blues stuff, so that's...

Hello , I own a Prs Se Fredrik Akesson . I really want to dial in a metal tone but I find my guitar's bridge too muddy for distorted sounds. I am looking for a bridge&neck set or just a bridge pickup. I love my neck pickup , so I thought that just a bridge pickup is enough for me. I like the EMG...

I recently bought a new Vela from Sweetwater. Amazing guitar but during my first couple gigs playing with it, the bass side of the neck pickup gradually starts dropping down and i have to move it back up after each set. It is damn near flush with the pickgaurd after playing a 45 minutes set...

Hi all, New to the forum and new to doing work myself, but I'll be damned if I don't try to learn how to take care of my own instrument. I'm decent with a soldering iron, so why not replace my own pickups? The issue is, I can't seem to find any wiring diagrams for putting in my 4-conductor SD...

Hey guys im new to the forum. I have a 25th anniversary custom 24 with 57/08 Humbuckers and the brass has completely faded on the pickups. Leaving them blotchy and unattractive. Is this normal? And is there a way to fix. Cheers in advance

Hi, I have an issue with my guitar. The Neck Pickup and middle PU sound exactly the same. Very honky, almost out of phase but the wiring has never been touched. Bridge pickup sounds fine and the splitting works in all positions. Is there a problem with the switch or the wiring? Thanks in...
