I've heard that PRS uses jescar fretwire which is said to be harder than common dunlop fretwire.
Is this correct? And did they always use that?
I'm asking because I have three PRS, a 91 CE, a 2003 McCarty and a 2017 Custom 24. All three play well, but the Custom just plays better than any other guitar I've ever played in 20 years. The frets are super smooth and remind me of SS frets, tho not as "slippery", which was too much for me.
Basically I want to know if I should look into jescar fretwire for my future refrets or if my olders PRS already have the same frets and they're just a recrown / polish away from playing as well as the Custom (I acquired both used and in the past few years).
Thanks!
