Modifying a PRS SE Custom 24 - Why you would, What you should do and how to do it!
Hey all! I bought a PRS SE Custom 24 with the specific idea of modding it to be my primary gigging guitar if gigs ever come back.
I thought it might be helpful to document the process and offer instruction and tips in case you're interested in modding your own PRS SE Cu24.
A lot of these tips are also applicable for other guitars if you're interested in similar mods.
A quick note: Lots of online guides suggest replacing the bridge in an SE. Not only have I had 0 issues with the bridge after a month (tuning stability and the trem have been great!) but it feels and operates at a high level. I don't think (as of right now) that it's a mandatory mod.
Time stamps and helpful links below!
Let me know if I can improve on anything and thank you for watching!

Two guitar setup videos that are much better/ more comprehensive than I could do:

This video is the best at balancing information with efficiency
#Riverton Guitars

This video is really good at going into detail on setting up a floating classic trem style guitar like the Cu24
The correct wiring diagram from Seymour Duncan for this project, but also completely applicable with other humbuckers with the same wiring style which most are these days.
