Hi everyone!

Thinking about new pickups for Custom22  :)

Maybe a HD in bridge and Cold Sweat in neck?:?:

Hi Ernar and welcome.

And to second Eric : what kind of music / tones are you looking for, what amp, how does the guitar sounds unplugged, what is it you like and dislike about this guitar with it's current pups, etc....

I have a Custom 22 myself and in mine I have a pair of AIV Abraxas with single volume and tone, 3 way switch and push/pull pot for splitting the neck pickup.

It makes for a very versatile guitar that can cover alot of ground, amp dependent obviously

I have AIV Mules in my Artist II (which is the same as a custom 22 if you ignore the bling!).  I used to have VHII's in it, but prefer the Mules as they give me better blues and classic rock tones.   Depending on the music you play, the VHII's might suit you too.  I found they hadn't enough mid-range for me.

VH2s sound great in a PRS
Does your PRS have the PRS rotary 5 way switch?
If it does when you order them you want to get a set with the neck magnet reversed in polarity to give you the right hum-cancelling combinations with the correct coils.
4 conductor wiring and short leg length would be advisable too.

Sorry to keep you waiting. Didn't have a possibility to go online.
I have a 3-way switch. VHII, hmmm, gonna think about it. Generally I want to order new pickups because of GAS :D
Heard that Mules are very demanding to your playing skills :idk:

I look for good, punchy rhythm tone for a bridge pickup and neck pickup that would cut through the mix nicely (sounds very general yes? :D ). Don't really look for good cleans cause I don't really play clean stuff in my band. Most of the time I play through Orange rockerverb. And, embarrassing, I play punk rock stuff ala Rise against, NoFX and Straighten things out (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJvLh4yhAfc). Not that of Ramons or Sex pistols :)

P.S. I'm from Russia, so don't judge my English too much, it is still imperfect :(

nailbomb?

[Ernar]

nailbomb?

Thought that nailboms are for heavier stuff :(  Besides, I never heard any nailbombs soundsample that i really liked.
