    Hi Everyone, I just got my first PRS (CE24) in the last few weeks and I noticed that the tuning peg for the A string doesn't turn smoothly when i'm turning the tuning peg. It almost feels like there's a clicking/pinging feeling or something slipping happening inside of the tuning peg or...

    Hi all, new to the forums and had a quick question .. I saw on the PRS site that the Phase III tuners are interchangeable with the Vintage so I decided to swap out the vintage on my new Private Stock 594 with them... I spoke with PRS and they said that there might be a bit of an "imprint" from...

    PRS SE Zach Myers one month later

    It's been a month since I got the PRS SE Zach Myers and this are my thoughts on it: Pros: Sounds amazing, versatile, from Jazz to Rock including those 60's sounds Very comfortable to play, love the fat neck, as ergonomic as my Starla to play sitting down. Looks amazing, the matching maple...

    1st Post • SE Holcomb Parts Swap Notion

    In recent weeks, I've acquired several SEs (and one Core), and am now off on a mild mod tear. This wild-hare idea may best be chased as a personal ad. ME: Have SE with chrome bridge and tuners, would like black chrome. YOU: Have Holcomb SE model with black chrome bridge and tuners, and would...

    McCarty Vintage vs Locking Tuners

    Did PRS stop equipping McCartys with locking tuners and now only do vintage style? Does anyone actually prefer vintage style to locking?

    Aftermarket Tuner Replacements for SS?

    Hey Folks, new member here. I have a customer that wants to put aftermarket tuners for his silver sky, he doesn’t like the original ones. Have any of you done that before? What brand fits without doing any modification? Thank you!

    wanted: S2 McCarty 594 Thinline in translucent colors like TV yellow or honey

    The S2 McCarty 594 Thinline is a stroke of genius! I hope PRS sells a ton of them! I was thinking about getting a used custom shop SG when I found the Thinline as an alternative. At 1/2 the price for a gorgeous, great-sounding, well-made, well-balanced, well-set up guitar, it's a no-brainer...

    Help with SE singlecut upgrades?

    Hey guys! Sorry if the topic is repetitive. I have perused through the SE mod thread to find some answers but.... Got to thinking after playing my tremonti that my se single cut needs some love and upgrades. Maybe due to me noticing the vast difference in tone. The us guitar just breathes...

    Pick up covers for PRS 85/15 S? Locking tuners?

    Hi everyone, I'm brand new to the PRS family. I've always but a Telecaster and Les Paul player. But glad to have just picked up a SE SemiHollow :) So far I really like the feel of it.

    Phase III Locking Tuners Hybrid swap for Nickel

    Thinking of making a change to one of my 594s that came with gold hardware. It came with the Gold hybrid Phase III Locking Tuners. Didn't know if anyone had a nickel set they'd like to swap me. If not, I'll just leave it as is, but just thought it wouldn't hurt to see if someone else was in...

    S2 Tuner: too sensitivity?

    Hi All, I got my S2 CU24 for few months from the factory (and i didn't change anything). One thing I think about is the tuner. When I twist the tuner a little bit, the pitch change a lot, much more sensitivity to my previous SE. Is it normal? or something wrong with the tuner or springs...

    SE Tuning Instability

    Hey everyone, I've got two SE's. An SE Custom 24, and an SE Mark Holcomb. I find that with both, the tuning is so unstable, playing a few notes can throw it out. Only slightly at first, but a bend will generally mess it up a fair bit. With the Custom, I installed locking tuners, but still get...

    Starla Tuner Replacement

    Hi Guys, One of the nice Brass posted Klusons on my Starla has let go. It’s starting to grind. Some of the others are starting to feel loose too. It’s 10 years old now, used a lot. What’s more is that the bigsby has always made the guitar body heavy, like a Les Paul. Heavier tuners would...

    S2 Vela Keeps Dropping Out of Tune

    Hey all, I just recently purchased a used Vela (semi-hollow, reclaimed wood). It sounds great, although I can't seem to keep it in tune for the life of me. This became a real problem at my first gig as it was really embarrassing playing, then realizing how out of tune it had become after a...
