NGD - PRS Signature Limited

Got this as part of a trade deal last week. With two NGDs so close together, it's taken awhile to get to this one for a proper beating. Only recently have I stepped back into the Trem world. Gotta say I'm loving it!! It's good to have options.

From PRS:
"The Signature/408 electronics offer eight sounds via four pickup coils thanks to a simple but versatile switching system featuring mini toggle switches that provide numerous combinations of humbucking and (no volume loss!) singlecoil tones."

Possible Pickup Switching Combinations:
Neck humbucker
Neck and bridge humbuckers
Bridge humbucker
Neck singlecoil
Neck and bridge singlecoils (hum canceling)
Bridge singlecoil
Neck singlecoil with bridge humbucker
Neck humbucker with bridge singlecoil

Re: NGD - PRS Signature Limited

Best looking one of those I've seen. I spent part of an afternoon with one of those (Eriza Verde) and that pickup configuration is pretty cool. Zero volume reduction when split, and the ability to run combinations of HB/SC via the 2 mini-toggles generated some particularly cool tones.

Congratultions!

I may reconfigure my Korina McCarty with the dual minis but likely keep the older variant 5708s that are in it.

Re: NGD - PRS Signature Limited

i love it. the way the pickups are different sizes, and the surrounds, make it look almost organic. like it just grew like that.

awesome!
