I'm gonna change the pickups on my Korean PRS Se custom 22 which is mahogany body and rosewood fingerboard and has factory "Tone Furnace" pickups on it rn.
I usually play rock/blues and sometimes funk/pop style things.Highest gain I go is Gary Moore(blues era not 80s) and the cleanest is jazz but quite rare tbh.
I play both rhtym and lead guitar often being the only guitarist in the band.
What I need from the pickup is:
-Dynamic: This is really important to me. I go from really soft picking to SRV style real quick.
-Tone: It goes without saying but it has to sound good with clean and REALLY good with overdrive and should be able to handle some distortion.
Also I need Neck pickup to sound really smooth since that is what I usually use and Bridge pickup to handle it when I get a little bit more agressive
-Clean up: I use volume knob quite a bit often leaving overdrive pedal on all time and using knob to go clean.
-About EQ I dont like too much high or too much low so something balanced or maybe something that brings out mids is my preference.But still would like to hear about a pickup that you would recommend even if it doesnt follow this.
And it doesnt have to be coil split I dont like it that much. PAF or humbuckers both works any advice is appreciated. Thanks already!
