New Pickups for 2025? Should I wait?

[DISTORT6]

Hello Everyone,
Not sure who has seen that interview Paul did with American Musical about these new pickups they have in development, that he said will be the future sound of PRS going forward. Has anyone heard anything else about these? I've been thinking about getting a 408 pretty heavily these past few weeks but I'm wondering if I should hold off and see what 2025 brings. Any thoughts?

Wait only if exact replicas of Dragon I’s are going to be made. If not…

Haha even lower output pickups, a step below the LT class...

I do actually really like the 58/15LT's now. It's also kind of funny when you swap in a pickup that people have been loving for years and years but it's new to you and it's awesome! Like.. 57/08's, bkp mules, Duncan antiquities.

I'm curious what they'll bring to the table. PRS pickups are pretty damn good these days. Kinda got something for everyone.

Personally, I Feel The \m/ Pickups Should Get More Love. They Are Exceptional And Far More Versatile Than They Likely Get Credit For. How About A TCI \m/ ? Possibly A \m/ LT? Even Better Would Be A \m/ \m/ Version For The Proper Heavies.

My \m/s are TCI

I remember Paul said the new sound started with the new NF pickups. So maybe there will be some variations of that?
I played an NF a few days ago...sounded killer, but the neck was way too big. Not for me at all, but a great sounding instrument.

Well, he needs something to keep it interesting for himself the coming years. There will be a place for a lot of his 'older' stuff I imagine and honestly: I usually swap PUs anyways ;-)
