Title: Some questions...
Post by: Cyril M on April 26, 2006, 02:48:47 PM

Hello guys

I'd like to know the difference between the 2 finish available and between the nickel and chrome cover
to replace covered dragonII of a Prs, which one should I choose?

What is the spacing for Prs ?

PRS Dragons have nickel covers, so go for those.

I don't know about string spacing - just measure it yourself!

PRS pickups are right in the middle: 51mm. It helps to use them both in neck and bridge pos.
I would use a F-spaced in the bridge (52mm) and standard neck in a PRS.

Nickel will age and get a nice patina like you see on old Gibson's, where chrome should, in theory, stay nice & shiny (and just pick up loads of scratches... )

I kind of wish I'd gone for nickel covered Emerald's instead of chrome covers, but the hardware on the guitar is chrome and hasn't really aged.
