How long before the 594's come with different pickups?

[watelessness]

Man, i am really stoked about the two-piece bridge and vibtage neck carve, but i am not a fan of the pickups. I have two guitars with 85/15's, one of which i gig, but the 57/15 pickups do not move me at all. How many more years until "the next thing" in pickups comes out?

I dunno. Brian was doing these with a 59/09 in the bridge. mA Pete rolled a bunch of pickups through his. I've got a DC594 with Throbak Peter Green's that I'm fond of. I have a SC594 with Klein 59's that are pretty vintage. I've got some Zhangbuckers on order that are a little hotter. I think there have been a couple with 58/15 regulars in them too

85/15's also rule, though.

I’d be happy if the default pickups for everything were 57/08’s

I'd be happy if the default for everything was tacos!

I'll be very surprised if you don't love those Zhangbuckers, too... Hehehe...

You've got a bunch of pickups laying around the house. You want tacos.

What's the exchange rate?

I'm a fan of 58/15. Can't wait till I get the LTs with a 594SC attached.

Waiting for the day they drop a set of Tremonti's in them... not everyone want's to play soft rock.

I had to google them. Their image was... flamboyant... to say the least.

Version 2 of the 58/15 LT is supposed to be coming out a little later this year, maybe by summer. We’ll have to see what that is like. I can say though, it must depend on the amp you use. If I play the 58/15 LTs through a modern high gain amp, I have no problem getting good metal out of them. In fact, they are actually nice, since the lower output allows for more nuance at normal amp gain levels compared to some other higher output options. I can see where playing through a vintage amp without a boost or overdrive pedal may be an issue.

Any additional info on the next version of the 58/15 LT's? Very curious about that. I distinctly like lower output humbuckers, so I hope Paul doesn't venture too far from that camp.

I have a 335 Historic with low-output MHS pups and they are extremely dynamic (punchy) compared to PAF's I've owned, which I'd characterize as more muscular but compressed and less overall tonal range. I am new to PRS, but haven't they already covered the gainer side of the spectrum with other current and previous pickup designs? I wonder where Paul would want to take these 58/15 LT's.

 

[Guitpicky]

Personally I really like the 58/15LTs but I'm old and more into blues and classic rock
