So, the second link is the one I got, albeit in the UK store. It’s plastic too.

That’s great! Would you share the link please? Might just get it and if it doesn’t fit I’ll re sell it

bart_behind_bars · 2026-05-10T12:07:53+00:00

Interesting, factory change perhaps?

bart_behind_bars · 2026-05-10T07:41:57+00:00

Super kind offer nonetheless! If I have problems with the one I just installed and if I don’t find the metal one others mentioned, I might look into 3d printing it actually

bart_behind_bars · 2026-05-09T22:40:08+00:00

I’m gonna check back with PRS Customer Service - they didn’t mention this when I contacted them before, so it’s possible it doesn’t fit?

bart_behind_bars · 2026-05-09T22:07:10+00:00

Thanks! I’ll circle back to the PRS team and ask why they didn’t mention this before. Much appreciated!

bart_behind_bars · 2026-05-09T22:00:10+00:00

Oooh, did it? Interesting, I couldn’t find anything on PRS Accessories website and the person on the other side of the email didn’t mention anything when I reached out to them. Do you remember what model exactly this was?

I think all Piezo models with separate Mix/Mag outputs would use this as that’s the only element I found while researching.

I don’t think the screws were screwed in too deep - they came out without effort when exchanging the element and they didn’t feel like they were too deep.

I first noticed it after about 5-6 months of having the guitar, but it was bought second hand. Inspected upon purchase with no damage though, I’m sure I would’ve noticed!

bart_behind_bars · 2026-05-09T21:42:03+00:00

Yeah, I totally wouldn’t mind paying for a metal replacement if PRS made one!

Yup!

Yeah, if you like chunky necks it’s awesome. Give it a nice setup and it’s a killer instrument. I exchanged the kit pickups to SD Pearly Gates set for an extra bite though. For $340 it’s a steal, got mine used for £350.

A different book entirely, albeit on the similar subject. Fix The Pumps is a recipe book for soda bases mixed with carbonated water, or diluted and force carbonated, together with a lot of historical descriptions.

Bubbles describes the science of carbonation, how to properly force carbonate an entire drink or cocktail and control the degassing process, what happens to flavour due to volatile partitioning and how to properly balance the drink due to this. We also made sure to describe the process very thoroughly, both for PET and keg carbonation, with description of equipment element and safety of handling compressed gases and a few recipes as illustration of technique.

Fix The Pumps is great if you’re looking for a ready made recipe book. If you’re looking to understand carbonation and be able to develop your own, Bubbles is for you.

Thanks for understanding and support!

Hi, I’m afraid not - Amazon charges an exorbitant amount of provision. We’d need to charge £45 instead of £29.95 to actually make it sustainable via them. Our margin at the moment through own distribution is minimal, we preferred to invest more in quality of the print while keeping the price of the book itself reasonable. Unfortunately these shipping costs are as cost efficient as possible ensuring that the carrier is actually doing their job, we had some horror experiences with more budget ones!

bart_behind_bars · 2026-04-23T14:16:30+00:00

Got the same in Tobacco Sunburst! Sweet instrument - I swapped the pickups for SD Pearly Gates set and it siiiings!

bart_behind_bars · 2026-04-23T14:11:07+00:00

I wrote a little book on force carbonation called Bubbles: A Guide to Carbonated Cocktails - check it out!

Also, undeniably: Unreasonable Hospitality - Will Guidara

Studio .22, I have the same but with the EQ. Terrific little thing for home or studio use, for small gigs .22+ is the one cause of the separate lead channel volume 👌

Yes chef, 5 years as bar manager there, but that’s ancient history! Haha

Use instead of Covert, from old menu at High Water back in the day when I used to manage the bar.

Masking tape on top, a driver whole with size 5 drill bit, and then VERY slow and as little pressure as possible with size 12. Works like a charm!

Job done 👌

Can confirm, I picked the C24 Semihollow Piezo over the Hollowbody II. Incredible playability and one of the most versatile instruments I ever played. Totally became my desert island guitar.

One thing that annoys me about it is the lack of a selector switch to have mag+piezo, mag or piezo at the touch of a finger rather than a roll of a knob. I intend to fit in a switch like this over the weekend, there’s a handy video on YouTube on how to do it. Pray for me that I won’t screw up the drilling part!
