PRS SC250 to be fitted with Mules
« on: June 03, 2011, 12:22:26 PM »
I have decided that I will replace the stock pickups on my PRS Singlecut 250 with a set of Mules. Should I opt for a Vintage long legs or modern short legs. I just had the guitar a week ago and haven't opened it up but I'm hoping you guys could help me to save some time.

Thanks. :)

You need short legs in a PRS, and I *think* the narrower bridge spacing  :)

The McCarty pickups were 53mm on bridge and 50 on neck, so you might wanna measure them. However now I got a 50mm RiffRaff in the bridge and it don't really matter actually, both should work fine.

Trem? Definitely 53mm for PRS trems but not sure about the hardtail. Get the tape measure out!  :)

Thanks for the replies guys. The SC250 is a hardtail LP-type guitar but I will still measure the pickups' string spacing as you have recommended.  The PRS manager also replied to my email promptly that they use about 1/2" pickup legs.
