Someone mentioned this before, and I could really see it happening. Maybe I've missed the more in-depth conversation on this topic (if there was one), but with the build type being what it was on the single coil models that were discontinued, I would think the S2 line could churn those bad boys out no problem. A buddy of mine played one of the core models recently and raved about it, and a lot of other people seem to like them too.

So, what say ye? Will there be single coil S2's in the near future?
 
IMHO, any humbucker guitar can be converted into a great single coil guitar... I get by with a little help from my Fralins. P-92s that is. Some of the greatest pickups ever made. It's a shame I don't have a guitar with them installed currently.
 
I sent a sound clip to a buddy of mine of my CU24 w/ 5909's showing off the diversity of my little Blackstar. He asked me what single coils I had in my Strat because it sounded very warm and chimey. Not too bad for some buckers ;) but I would definitely rock an S2 with singles!
 
Well the NF3s, DC3s, SAS's, 513s, strat-style SE's, and other PRS guitars featuring single coil-ish pickups have not been great sellers, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

Heck, I love my Studio with Narrowfields, but those are gone now too.

But what I may like even better now is the sound of split narrow 408 pickups on the Pauls' Guitar...
 
S2 EGs all the way...with the pre-assembled pickguards coming in from Korea, multiple configurations would be relatively cost-effective, so SSS, HSS, HSH...I'm there...
