The white cable going to lug 2 is stripped back too far and can move and touch lug 1, jumping lug 1 and 2 together. The braid on the bridge pickup ground is barely on top of an old blob and not actually soldered, but that does not affect the output, which is probably rectified by what I...

To answer this: Your frets will feel scratchy when you do bends. You ever notice some guitars have frets so damn shiny you can see yourself and others....well, probably didn't even catch your eye..... This also improves the overall feel of the guitar when you play. I go with 9 levels of...

Just an update that I have zero regrets going with the Hakko so far. A really well performing unit that gives me absolutely no issues. Don't worry, the other Hakko products like the filter fan and the like are still the ol' blue & yellow!

I want.

Can you update with gut shots of the wiring? I know nothing should have changed but still could help with identifying the possible issue. Have you done continuity and ground checks? Does it look like one of the vintage braids has shifted and ground could be hitting a hot terminal? Did you...

For my board, I really, really like the SP400s with my BTPA cabling. Second to none there. After trying several, I enjoy Switchcraft for my instrument cables.

I prefer top mounted standard 2 point trems over all I think now but love my Ibanez Lo Pro Edge, which is recessed. I haven't played many with a top mounted Floyd come to think of it, though I have seen them around. Dive only floyds/bridges do not interest me. There has to be some sort of upward...

Those both sound awesome! I will slowly chip away at the Griffin Analog catalog.....

Come on people - a chance to win epic gear and donate to a good cause? It's a no-brainer!!!

I saw BEAT perform live and really enjoyed it! Lots of odd tonal goodness.

Yeah, my LP and McCarty definitely feel a Little different, though my LP happens to have a rounded c neck as well funnily enough. A bit thicker and string spacing is different. The 10 inch is less flat/rounder than the 12 inch. The LP is flatter at a 12" radius.

The neck shapes on PRS have always thrown me. That being said I have an older PRS McCarty with a sweet rounded neck C neck, akin to a smaller 59 or something. Not that wide flat like many or whatever else they use.

Those ceramics are going to slam the high-mid bejeesus out of that guitar! Will definitely work well for low tunings 100%, though I have not heard that set specifically. Killer guitar - crazy price. Congrats again.

Hope it works out for ya. I do not have a solder sucker that is "all in one" with the iron or anything but it works as intended. Way better than the wick in many scenarios.

If I recall, the SE and S2 lines use steel saddles. I do not believe they are brass that are coated or anything, just steel. Hope that helps!

Really cool look!!

Looks sweet! I could tell by the woods and looking at the pickups that you would want to swap em out. Probably a bit reedy and hifi in areas. Really sweet axe!!!

My friend's that I did work on, including putting the arm back together and installing some H-Bomb pickups with a PIO cap. Sweet guitar!

Get a Planet Tone American Metal. I know you said Duncan but who really cares in the end and it fits the tonal profile.

Man, at the price I got my PRS at, it's a no brainer.... Hell, I see another killer one on Gear Exchange for like $1700. An American made quality instrument for less than 2k is pretty solid. Maybe that's why PRS is doing well currently in the used market, due to not being just lawyer guitar...
