If that's cheating, I don't wanna be faithful! :)

Very, very, very nice! I don't care much for gold hardware and natural finishes, but this is a definite exception...besides, blondes have more fun! :angry:

Lovely top on that one. And I believe they only made Artists with ebony fretboards for 1 year, so pretty rare as well.

i want to change pups.

could you guys imagine nickel covered pups to that golden bridge

or should i stay with the gold?

i also like the toggle switch, but for a change i had to widen the hole in that beautiful top.

would you do it?

thx

Those rotary switches are very annoying ( to me personally - piece of crap).

The top is insanely sick. that's not cheating, that's total adultery! and it's worth it. As they say - if you bang somebody, make sure she is a Queen, if you steal something - make sure it's worth a million.

Why not? PRS widens holes in their tops all the time for their 3-way toggles.

Stick with gold with the pickup covers.

hm... I replaced the rotary in mine with a 3 way toggle and didn't have to widen the hole. Mines a '91, I guess it's possible the hole was a different size.

i ordered haeussel pups in satin gold covers with shiny nickel polepeices.

i like the toggle much better - sooner or later.....

i did it :)

the pups are swapped for custom made haeussel bridge pup with alnico 3 magnet - 12,6 kohms

and 1959 PAF alnico 5 at the neck with 7,6 kohms - boys, that rocks!

also the rotary switch had to leave for pushpull and a goldplated toggle.

I don't like PRSs.

I don't like gold hardware.

But I LOVE that guitar. Classy!
