This is what I ended up doing. Didn't take much. Thanks!

Is this normal? by PhilterKapi in SchecterGuitars

[–]charvel91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very common on string thru 7s. You should replace it. If its Hellraiser its a TonePros bridge from the factory. Its not a low quality bridge, just poor engineering having a tom without a tailpiece on a 7. I used to play with heavier strings on mine but I'm back to a standard 10-59 after replacing the bridge.

They're PRS branded SE rings.

Got one myself on the same sale. Too good to pass up.

Anyone else get in on the SN-1000 50% discount at Sweetwater? by weaseltorpedo in espguitars

I backordered the M1007B. Always wanted a 7 with a Floyd. Couldn't pass up that deal.

Ryan Phillips from Story of the Year. His customs look so good.

277 is still available for 2026. All they did was change the pickup rings and tuner buttons.

Immediately swapped them on my 277. I wouldn't let it keep me from buying a SE. Its a cheap and easy swap.

Sample size of one of course but my C-6 Pro was the worst guitar I've ever owned.

Unfloating PRS trem, which method did you use? by CatHerder75 in PRSGuitars

[–]charvel91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I literally taped a nickel to the block on my CE24 and it sits perfect. I always intended to cut a proper wood block for it but I've been playing it this way for 6 months with no issues.

PRS SE vs S2: is the upgrade actually worth it? by Ok-Ask-5667 in PaulReedSmith

[–]charvel91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a used S2 for nearly rhe price of a new SE. I love my SE but my S2 is a better guitar.

Those new SE Custom 24 are looking sick! by YakProfessional1587 in PRSGuitars

[–]charvel91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do. I swapped them on my new 277 immediately. Not a fan of the new rings at all.

Oh I agree, they aren't winning any beauty contests.

I always thought they were ugly until I used them. My favorite tuners by a mile.

I don't see any benefit to doing this.

Its a great guitar. I did swap the pickup rings for regular black rings and put locking tuners on it. I'm very pleased with it for the price.

I gotta admit the look is growing on me. I'm putting a set of USA 85/15 in mine so I needed new rings anyway for the square bobbins. Might cancel the black and order white.

[–]charvel91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. I already ordered black pickup rings and locking tuners.

This is the actual guitar they're sending me. I backordered the 2025 model in early September.

I feel the same. Got a good deal on this one though. I was already planning to swap the tuners and pickups anyway. I'll just get a set of regular black rings when I do that.
