wiring

Hello! I want to upgrade my PRS SE245 with decent caps and pots and I wondered if these would fit. I really appreciate your help, especially about the long shaft vs short shaft variants. I think PRS takes short shafts but I'd love to have confirmation. Regards, G

So, a little background, I'm no stranger to soldering and wiring up standard guitars. Gimme a Strat a Tele or Les Paul and I'll have that bad boy singing in no time! BUT, and it's a huge one, this is my first time messing around with the wiring with Mini toggles added in. I'm working on a...

Hi everyone, I couldn't find the exact layout I was looking for so I'm curious if anyone here can recommend how to do this wiring. I'm good with a soldering iron and have always done basic repairs, pot swaps, etc, but this is more complex than what I am used to and I can't find a schematic to...

Hi All, Wondering if someone might be able to help me out. I have a PRS Custom 24 2009. I had the pickups replaced in it with Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates and the guy that did it struggled to get the wiring correct.. what I didn't know at the time is because of what I have discovered recently...

Hi folks, I recently purchased a core custom 24 wich I absolutely love. The only thing I’d like to change is position 4 of the switch wich I don’t use because it is too thin for me. I want it to be bass humbucker + treble single coil, so the exact opposite of position 2. What should I change in...

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...
