Hey all! I'm kind of a newbie around here but I've owned a PRS or two for over twenty years now. At the moment, among the guitars I'm lucky enough to own, I have a 1999 Archtop Spruce and a Hollowbody II from the same year, neither of which has the piezo option. Recently, I've been lucky enough to find a set of 53/10TMs and a set of 57/08s (etched but without the TM).
My question is this: which of the two sets of pickups would be the best fit in each guitar?
If I were to replace the original McCarty Archtops, I'd consider fitting a push/pull (possibly with the new resistor wiring).
Or do I even need to change the pickups? I like the ones that came in the guitars, but I've played a few newer PRS guitars with DGTs and 57/08s and like what I hear.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
