wiring

Hi guys. I love the 58/15 LT pickups and recently purchased a set of 58/15 LT+ pickups. 58/15 LT + pickups are known to have a DC resistance value that is more than 1k higher than regular 58/15 LT pickups, and their output is also greater than that of regular 58/15 LT pickups. The PRS...

Bought used on Marketplace. Regardless of the switch position, I am getting output from both pickups. I’ve tested this with a screwdriver. Tone pot works, coil split works, volume pot works. I looked at the wiring and it doesn’t look like it’s been modified at all. Anybody know what the issue...

Hi everyone, I have a PRS SE Custom 24 I want to upgrade however I walk into some problems and I hope you can help me. I have this US electronics set now in my guitar and will keep on using the PRS 85/15S picksups I already have. These pickups have a black, red, green and white wire (the green...

Hello Everyone, This is my first post and I thought I would share my upgrades to my SE Custom 24 with you in case anyone else would like to make these modifications. Recently I was planning to buy a SE Custom 24-08, however I was very lucky and won a SE Custom 24. I love the look and...

Hi, I've bought some S2 pickups for my SE Standard 22 but the wire colors are different from Bridge to Neck, and the info available online doesn't match with what I have. I think they are 58/15S pickups from a McCarty 594. Most of the posts I read only talk about 3 wires. The Treble pickup...

Long post alert! Please bear with me Hi everyone, First post here, but I’ve perused this forum endlessly before joining. Excellent insight to be had. Good company. I am a PRS pickup hoarder, and scored a set of 85/15 TCIs last month. I was working on installing them in one of my Les...

Just purchased some Lollar Imperials and I am comfortable enough with the soldering, but I have no idea what wires are supposed to be soldered to what lugs. For now, I plan on keeping the wiring schematic the same as it is not with the 85/15 humbuckers (unless someone recommends changing it). I...

Hi all, I have a 2021 SE Custom 24, I tried adding a new pickup with I believe is faulty. I have tried just putting the stock pickups back but I'm having little success and the wiring diagrams aren't much help. Noobie mistake not taking a picture before starting. I was wondering if anyone had...

Hello, I'm a new PRS customer, new to this forum, and just purchased a new Santana SE. Love it so far - except there is significant noise/hum on all pickups, and noticeably worse when toggle in middle position. Can anyone shed light on what to expect in terms of noise for this guitar/pickups...

I got a set of these to put on my SE but I can't find any diagrams that tell me what the cables do. I'd assume that black/white/red/green are the same as normal 85/15, but what do I do with the extra orange wire? Looking at a picture the seller sent me of the guts of his guitar, it looks like...

Excuse my questions I'm a PRS newbie and guitar novice I recently bought a 2nd hand PRS S2 Singlecut and it needs to be re-wired (having weird issues where they guitar stops working if tilted. Checked connection on pots and switch, seem fine -maybe someone has tips) - I'm trying to return to...

Hello everyone. I just got on eBay a set of 57/08 pickups. I currently have 59/09 uncovered pickups that came factory installed on my 2012 Custom 24 with 5-way blade. I wanted a bit less harsh and vintage sounding pickup and wanted to give the 57/08 a try. Anyway, i think I’ll have some trouble...

Hi everyone, I’ve got a cu 24 2012 and love it, but I’m looking for lower output pickups and have considered installing a set of Thornbuckers. I’ve been wondering whether there would be any wiring consequences that would affect coil splitting options, for instance, will the guitar still have...

Has anyone done it yet? I've ordered some bits and have laid out this diagram of stock and after coil split switching added (with trebble bleeds too). https://photos.app.goo.gl/RBZREqZCpp83tBw67 Can anyone see anything wrong? There probably is, but hopefully not. I got the pup wire colours...

Hey Folks. Recently acquired a brand spanking new Se Santana (w the PRS logo on headstock!) for $300 on offer up. What a steal. Im slowly modding the guitar with nice raw nickel pickup covers, a core nut, truss rod cover,etc. Now I’m looking to change the electronics. I was wondering if anyone...

Help! pick guard swap goes wrong - lose wire? So I was swapping the pickguard on my new PRS Mira SE (tortoise to black) and I was afraid of breaking anything... Anyways my fears were realized when I noticed a loose black wire after swapping the tone pots and switches over. (I must have...

I am looking to swap out the default 85/15 pickups in my new PRS Custom 24-08. There are 4 colored wires: red, white, black, and green (as well as the 1 bare wire). What are the color codes (i.e. how do these colors map to North Start, North Finish, South Finish, and South Start)? Note: This...

Hey Everyone, So here is my issue i have a 35th anniversary Prs Se 24 and I love it but I had my guitar tech add 2 push pulls(for out of phase and Series) and the coil taps now only work when the in Series is pulled up. could anyone point me in a direction for diagrams for something like this...

So about a month ago i bought a used PRS 24 SE in great condition with one exception... Both neck and middle selection on the three way switch select both pickups. The former owner claims he did no modifications to the wiring (he changed the tuners to locking gotohs and put covers on humbuckers...

Hi, as in the title I'm looking to install a push/pull pot in my 2016 Custom 22 SE. I believe a few of this model were installed with PP pots but not all of them, and apparently I got the latter. Inside the cavity there are 2 loose sets of white and green wires coming off the pickups, which I...
