Hi everybody,
I joined these forums years ago and never ended up posting much. Ended up taking a long holiday from regularly playing. I'm starting to get back into things, and I'm finding that I really want to get that thin, bright Telecaster bridge pickup tone, but I don't really want to buy a Tele. I was playing my Custom 22 Soapbar the other day (original owner/2001/ birds/maple board/violin amber burst/10 top--gorgeous, one of my favorites of all time) and I couldn't coax anything out of the bridge P90 that got close. Obviously it's a very different pickup than the Tele, so no surprise there. Still, I got to thinking that something like a no load tone pot might get me closer. Anyone have any experience with that kind of mod in a PRS with P90's? I was also thinking a higher value tone pot might help. I'm assuming that a 250 pot comes stock in that model, but I haven't been able to find any documentation online so far.
Any advice appreciated.
