2 NF-3 questions . . .

[disconnector]

Hi all! Long time lurker - it's nice to finally have a question worth asking.

I have an NF-3 that I dearly love. My wife bought it for me as a wedding gift and I'm literally playing the frets off of it. I have two questions though . . .

1. I LOVE the narrowfield pickups. LOVE them. So much that I'd like to give a little NF goodness to my strat. Which aftermarket pickup seems to be close to a NF pickup? I've tried several minihumbuckers but they all seem to fall too far on the "humbucker" side and are too dull. Has anyone here found something that has the same (or similar) magic?

2. I have a DC-3 that I also love. The magic in the DC-3 is the steel trem components . . . and I'd love to try that on my NF-3. Does anyone sell steel trem blocks and saddles for the PRS trem? I could probably make Fender parts fit but I don't want to commit any blasphemies. Hahahah

Thank you all!!

Hit up John Mann for the trem parts. Use the phone, he’s old school.

The closest thing I’ve heard to a NF pickup is a mini-humbucker, like a Duncan Vintage Mini.

And on bridge stuff, Mann’s the man.
