Hey Everyone,
I recently purchased a new set of 57/08 pickups to install into my 2005 McCarty. The original McCarty pickups were just two wires and the 57/08 pickups are four wires. I believe I have this correct based on some other posts here:
Neck/Bass Pickup:
* Black = Ground
* White = Hot
Red = Coil Tap
Braid = Ground
Bridge/Treble Pickup:
* Black = Hot
* White = Ground
Red = Coil Tap
Braid = Ground
I installed the pickups and it sounds good (although there is a volume drop switching to coil tap - normal?), I'm just wanting to confirm the information above though as there isn't any info officially from the PRS website.
Thanks!
