PaulNeeds Posted June 17, 2004 Report Share Posted June 17, 2004 It looks like it's all done onthe switching, splitting out coils with the 5 way and phase with the 3 way. They tend to make most of their own pickups I think, apart from some with use a Duncun in the middle for the strat-ish swamp ash special.

lovekraft Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 So far as I know, the 5-way is a standard Strat switch and the 3-way selects series, parallel or single-coil for the neck and bridge humbuckers, making the 13 sounds (bridge x 3, bridge + middle x 3, middle x 1, middle + neck x 3, neck x 3). That's what the PRS rep told us, more or less - since they're applying for a patent, they're a little reluctant to be very specific. If they do manage to get a patent, it'll be the lowest point in patent history since Randall Smith got designs from the RCA Tube manual published in the 30's patented.

hy_dro66 Posted June 18, 2004 Report Share Posted June 18, 2004 This is off topic, but how many people actually use 13 sounds from a guitar. Not to mention a bunch of them will be very similar. It sucks that they are trying to patent it. I'm sure there are many in this forum that have come up with cooler ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
