PRS HFS & VB replacements

[hunter]

as far as I could tell, listening to your preferences, your guitar, etc, I'd try the Black Dog neck.

It's rather fat and smooth and has lots of depth if you know what I mean, great for metal neck lead tones as well as blues as well as cleans (except funk). Guess it would complement your guitar rather nicely.

Just considering the possibility of swapping something else into my Blackmachine

Painkillers. Go on. You know you want to.

If anyone has any more interesting suggestions, but where the 9 & 7 sounds on the 5 way are still nice

I have a PRS Custom 22 with a calibrated set of Mules.The 9 and 7 sounds on the 5 ways are very good,very twangy and sweet  :) !But i really miss the 2 humbuckers together...Anyway,for your style of music (Metal etc.),i think you will have to choose something else for bridge pu;Mule bridge would not be hot enough.For myself,i'm thinking about a bridge BlackDog or something hotter...

Thanks for the input.

Not sure. My one isn't chambered and that makes a lot of difference.

Anyway, this is all for the future.... Too skint for another set of BKPs right now!!

Smoother neck then VB, a bit more lairy at the bridge, split settings should still be nice & twangy... :)

Surely you're describing a Cold Sweat set then?
