    Strings on guitar with Floyd Rose

    Hello, I have a new Custom 24 Floyd (got it last month) and I want to buy some strings in case I have a string that breaks. As I have no experience with a Floyd Rose (but watched some tutorials to learn how to restring the guitar), I want to keep the exact same string gauges in order not to...

    First Fret Is Dead

    A few months back I got a used 2018 PRS SE Zach Myers. It was in great shape and played well, but was strung with 11's. They were new and sounded great so I played them a couple of times, but this last weekend I decided I had to change them to my normal string gauge (9's). As soon as I started...

    Using Heavy Strings on an SE ?

    I am about to get my first SE (Custom 22 semi-hollow). I use heavy-ish flat-wound strings : 13-17-21-28-39-53. I have three questions: 1. Are the holes in the fixed-intonation bridge large enough for strings of that diameter? 2. Are there likely to be intonation problems? (I see the bridge...

    Heaviest string gauge for Custom 24

    I have been using Ernie Ball Slinky Cobalts 10-46. Would like to tune down a whole step, and if it would work down to Open C. At what gauge would I have to modify the nut? Thanks

    Has anyone strung their PRS SE with a set of 12's?

    Hi, I'm thinking about using 12's (Ernie Ball Not Even Slinky 12-56) on my PRS Tremonti Custom SE. I'd like to know if anyone has tried to do this, if so, what kind of changes have you had to make to accommodate such a heavy gauge, what changes do you recommend? - Billy
