BKP for PRS SE Tremonti to cover more different sounds?

[rallax]

Hi all,

I want to replace stock pus of my new PRS SE Tremonti (new modell w/tremolo) w/ BKP to archive a more broader sound spectrum. If possible I would like to from classic rock (I have a set of Riff Raffs in a Hagstrom Viking ES copy) to more modern rock sounds (A-bombs in a HH Tele Copy w/ maple body). In between I've the same HH Tele copy w/ Black Dogs. And some kind of British clean would not be bad. But I do not want to cover heavy metal.
Currently I'm thinking about VHII or RY.
I play a Splawn Street rod w/ covers modded Marshall sounds.

Any idea or recommendation for a BKP combination.

Up to now I'm very happy and satisfied w/ all recommendations of this forum.

Thanks a lot!

Rebel Yell set would be a good choice - bridge pickup has good power but not overbearing, neck pickup is clear and not muddy, and they are very balanced as a set.

The VHII neck is a good pickup as well. Never played the VHII bridge so I cannot really help here.

I would also consider the Abraxas set.

RY's would be a great complement to your RR's and your ABombs. Can't go wrong there.

I would say VHII set or Abraxas set. I think the Rebel Yell might be a bit too close to the abomb.

I have VHII's in a PRS CU22 and they cover alot of ground.
The Abraxas are hot, but still vintage voiced and balanced.

Can't go wrong with either of them.

Abraxas closed the gap between vintage and modern. VHII's are great too, genuine all purpose rockpickup.

Ralf,

I have a  PRS SE Single cut.  I went with a set of Rebel Yells.  It is a very versatile modern rock combo.

 The bridge pup can get down and dirty raunchy and is never mushy.  Very organic and less compressed than the dimarzios in my Ernie Ball Axis.  The bridge pup cuts and has awesome bite when playing power chords. It is absolutely smoking hot for solos.  The mid range is glorious.  Gnarly is the word I often use to describe it. The roll off is simply brilliant, from hot to mellow in an instant.   The bridge is a monster rock pup.  The neck is smooth as a baby's bottom, lush and chime'y'.  Bluesy and jazzy right up there with the best of them.  It is an extremely versatile set of humbuckers.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Tom
