The Thread That We Post Purple PRS In To Torture JustRob.

[greiswig]

My new "none more purple" P24...just back from PTC for install 85/15's and "Skitchy mod

I'll bite. "Skitchy mod?"

Yes! Do tell!

There's a thread on here somewhere about this...I just can't find it right now. Basically adds a P/P pot to the tone control which splits both pickups to SC mode yielding 3 additional pickup combinations (SC N, SC B, SC N+B). 8 pickup combos pluss the piezo makes the P24 pretty hard to beat in terms of versatility.

I want that for my P24. I wonder if it is worth it...I'm sure it isn't a $100 Parts and Labor "fix" by the PTC...

I know I have a shitload of blue.......let's see about some purple, I'm a Ravens fan, so of course I have some purple guitars!














Reddish purple

It involves only replacing the tone pot and some fancy re-soldering. Submit a work estimate/request through the PTC page...I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Too bad it's a lefty. (And I'm told it really is metallic purple.)

 

[Dusty Chalk]

Not mine (yet again!), but .... man, if I wasn't saving up for a Private Stock and hadn't just bought the SC-J, one or both of them would be.

And probably my next (non-PRS -- sorry) bass purchase:

There's no teasing Rob anymore. He just upped his purple game in a MAJOR way!!!

Loving Herr Squid's 408.

Here is mine post pick-up swap (now with uncovered 85/15s):

And in action! It really looks different depending on the angle and light!

Man, how have I missed this thread?! I loves me some praaple.

First let me qualify what I am about to say with...yes. Yes he did.

But unfortunately, that's not how it works. I should know. I have one of my favourite guitar tops ever (the 30th earlier in this thread with the swirl top), and I still find myself being tortured by all the purple.

I am really happy with my magenta, though.

Heh! Here I was thinking "that looks a heck of a lot like mine!"

We have great taste
I think I'm right in saying ours are violet burst.
Almost like red grape juice has been thrown on the guitar.
Would love a bright lime green one to go with it - make it apple and blackcurrant.

Well, I'll need to get in on all of this purple love. Working out some details with the PTC right now. Getting ready to send off a Whale Blue Cu22 for a facelift.
