The Itch To Switch

I'm not a weirdo or anything, and truly am only teasing you about it, but even after all this time, I can't get used to it. Something just "not right" about it. Maybe I'm just a backwards country boy. I'm sure if Julie Bowen did it, I'd be ok with it. HAHAHAHAHA

I Am Sure You Would Be As Well. ;)

I Get It. New Thoughts / Ideas / "Things" Are Hard For People To Come Around To When They are Cemented In Their Ways. :)

I Am Surprised That My Gear Talk On A Gear Forum Seems To Always Take The Back Seat To This. Something Just "Not Right" About It.

It does not take a back seat to it. I said that I was just joking with you and I am. I'm not riding you or insulting you or anything AT ALL. But certainly you understand that the eye is not trained to see it and it is not correct punctuation, so it is hard to get used too.

Have you seen one of the examples that float around, where it asks you to read something, and it intentionally spells something wrong, or uses the wrong version of a word or something, and then it says "you understood this because your brain corrected the info you you read it as it should have been written?" Well even after reading your posts for a while, my eye still wants to stop as if I'm reading a new sentence every few words, because of the caps. So, no, it's not a big deal at all. And no, it doesn't really bother me. But it is unusual and a bit jarring when reading it. I'm not an English professor or anything, although I play one on TV. :D

I have Black Dogs and like them a lot in certain guitars, so I'd recommend trying them. For a PRS though, I'd try Wolfetone Marshallheads first. I've had a set of Lollars for several years and keep trying them, but I find them bland. No experience with Suhr pickups, but some day I hope to try a couple different sets.

Me too.

Wolf likes the Alnico 5 version but I prefer the Alnico 2 version.

I bought the A5 version, tried them but didn't really like them. Too trebley for me.

But when I put an AddictionFX Roughcast Alnico 2 magnet in each, the Marshallheads became a favorite pickup set.

Similar to my other favorite set, PRS 57/08's, but with more of a hard rock attitude.

I'm thinking of putting a set in the Black Bernie Marsden that's on the way.

Pickups Can be So Finicky. I Have Duplicate Guitars And The Same Pickups Don't Always Work In Each Guitar. I Am A Big Fan Of The Black Dog In Any Singelcut Type Guitar. They Typically Work Really Well In That Guitar Type. The Lollar's Have Worked Great In Certain Applications. I Found A Few More Sets Of Pickups In Another Bin So I Am Back To Pondering What To Do On Two Of The Guitars.

Nothing Could Be Further From The Truth. I Do, However, Enjoy Talking About Gear With My Fellow Forumites. This Other Bul1$hit That Keeps Getting Drummed Up Isn't On Me. It Is On Those Drumming It Up.

I’m getting used to it. I think because @Bogner and I seem to end up in the same place, with most of the other usual suspects, pretty frequently. Or at least I fancy myself becoming one of the usual suspects eventually. But I barely notice the caps anymore.

They are so good, man. The clean channel is back again, even with the bridge pickup set higher than the Tremonti I had here before. There is so much more presence, crushing lows, and the midrange sits on your face like it just don't care. Amazing pickup set
