I have an old flat-top 25th Anny SE that was my first foray into the PRS world. (see below pic, it's the blue one on the left) It's played its fair share of shows, and now has issues with the wiring; the volume pot is scratchy, the selector switch is scratchy and if not used gently sometimes doesn't allow the neck pickup to make sound, the input jack is slightly intermittent, and believe it or not the wax potting (I'm guessing) has melted out of the bridge pickup a little bit.
I need to replace these components to either sell the guitar, or ever use it again live.
Any suggestions for PRS replacement pickups? I'm unfamiliar with anything but the 57/08's that are in my CU24.
I'm looking to have something very different than the Core CU24. I was looking at possibly the Tremonti Bridge (and have a pull tap/split tone control for it) and then something drastically different in the neck. Some initial thoughts are Fralin Unbucker, Lollar Imperial Low Wind, Lollar Hum-Sized Single, etc... I want something VERY low gain, unbalanced, and single coil/P90 sounding; whether it's through being split or not.
