Can We PLEASE Stop Referring to "USA Electronics" In Core Guitars ???

Well, for us in Australia, all PRS guitars, including Private Stock are imports

Same for us. Maton make a very nice acoustic though.

In my part of Scotland, there’s trees that have survived so far, then a line of them that are sick and dying. So sad.

The 8 tallest trees in my back yard are ash that haven’t had leaves for 5 years. They are just waiting for a big wind to tip them over.

So Wednesdays after Taco Tuesday are a bit nerve-wracking for you?

PRS uses $5 wide tolerance pots in even the most expensive private stocks. Meh. I just replaced the pots in in on of my PS CU24s with wd/cts tight tolerance pots that ACTUALLY measure 500k +.

Stock "500k" pots measured low 400s, which is typical. Makes a difference folks.

Also why I LOL at the whole TCI thing. I ACTUALLY tune those things by using tight tolerance pots and caps and measuring them on a meter, marking them, and choosing the values I want to match the sound I'm trying to get from the guitar. PRS clearly does not, the bin of $5 (retail mind you) pots goes into everything, which pretty much kills the idea of tuning capacitance and inductance in a circuit. Even if you make the pickups a certain way, it's the entire circuit that matters, and the whole idea of "well we tuned our pickups for a certain capacitance and inductance figure, but then we used random value pots" thing is laughable.
