I have a PRS SC245 57/08 you can see in my avatar picture here. As you guys know the pups were engraved "57/08" on them. I sweat on my guitars often and don't wipe them down after jamming. The guitar was at my friends house basically untouched for all most 10 years. I just got it back and decided to clean the dirty corroded pups. They were engraved; however, I do not see 57/08 on them any longer. I didn't clean them totally but good enough to where I would see the numbers (I believe). I actually lifted one out to make sure they had the correct sticker on the back to make sure someone did not swap them while it was at my friends. I don't get it.
Were they actually engraved or was it written to look engraved? I am very disappointed to say the least. Could the liquid (human sweat) erode the engraving after all of this time?
Were these pups originally anodized aluminum or nickel? I believe the former.
