Hey guys. I just got me a new Custom 24 SE w/trem a couple months ago ($400 black Friday sale!!! Can you freaking believe that???!!!???) Love the guitar!
….But I need to get this thing fixed.
Fixed??? How dare I!!!!
Seriously though, floating trem with no locking tuners? What were they thinking? This was something the industry learned 40+ years ago….
I had the trem bar on only the first day I played it. Hasn’t been on since, being it goes out of tune anytime I used it.
You all know this already, so why am I even mentioning this????
Big question for all you experienced PRS owners, which tuners should I go with? Phase 2 or 3?
Looks like either one I get I’ll have to drill new screw holes. No big deal there. With the phase 3 I’d have to drill 2 per tuner? Am I seeing that right?
What I really need to know is - are the peg holes the correct size? I won’t have to bore them out any will I?
With either the phase 2 or 3 tuners, it “looks” like it’s going to leave the existing screw holes “exposed”.Not that I really care though.
Are there any pros/cons with either of these tuners?
I'm looking at this strictly from an install perspective, not cost. Cost doesn't matter.
Thanks!
At some point I’ll probably want to replace the bridge pickup… but that is for another day/thread.
p.s. WOW! The message editor for this forum is HIDEOUS! I don't see how you guy can stand it..
Is there any way I can turn OFF this god awful wysiwyg editor - and just have a plain text editor?? :angry:
