replied bro sa PM and dun sa Graphtech Appreciation thread..  :-)

got it brand new through Masterchoxter..

I find the stock SE tuners to be decent.. ok naman ang tuning ko.. you don't need to replace that lalo na kung hindi naman trem-version ang guitar mo..
mas ok magpalit ng locking nut kung nagpalit ka na ng maayos na nut pero may tuning issues ka pa rin..

anyway.. si pitongjerome, nagpalit na ng locking tuners sa SE Custom niya.. he used sperzels..

pero for a direct replacement, etong dalawang models ang sinasuggest mismo ng PRS Customer Service..

Schaller M6
or
Grover 406

+1 on what chino said.  Oks naman yung stock tuners, even for moderate trem usage.  Replace the nut first, nandun usually yung tuning problems.  Parang pang-9s ata setup nun eh, once I went with 10s sa string gauge, grabe yung 'ipit' sa nut.  Pwede mo rin file yung slots, but if you don't know what you're doing, take it to a luthier na lang.  I went with a PRS nut from magdon music, which uses the same material on US PRS guitars (SE nuts on the other hand, are plastic), but it cost me 30$ total.. with shipping almost the same cost as the nut itself.  You can get cheaper graphtech nuts from masterchoxter that are also self-lubricating.

Once you take care of the nut, but still need locking tuners, schaller m6 is the usual recommendation sa prs forums.

Link?  Who verified it?  :-)  Last time I was there kasi, there's still a clout over what the material is made of, regardless of it's similarity to graphtech.

Actually nung dinala ko yung SE ko kay dakuykoy, napagkamalan din nyang graphtech yung nut nung PRS ko. Totoo ba yun?

lol! yeah i was..  :lol: :lol:
pinalitan ko yung nut for cosmetic reasons.. lol.. OC ako bro.. i thought the black nut looked bland on the guitar, so i got the white one.. and it doesn't look like a white plastic nut.. it looks milky.. like carabao milk.. tapos when you drop a graphtech nut, ramdam mo yung pagkasolid niya.. it falls quick and sounds like ceramic (plates, tea cups, etc..).. cool..  :-)


Actually nung dinala ko yung SE ko kay dakuykoy, napagkamalan din nyang graphtech yung nut nung PRS ko. Totoo ba yun?

yung stock nut bro ng SE ay plastic.. mukha lang graphite kasi black.. pero pag kinompare mo side by side sa graphtech, ibang-iba dude.. sobrang solid ng feel ng graphtech.. ang tinutukoy ko na gawa din ng graphtech ay yung US PRS stock nut pati yung aftermarket na US PRS nut..  :-)

nung stock pa ang prs se custom ko, wala naman akong naging problem sa tuning, sa trem naman, wala din akong naging problem kahit stock nut pa ang gamit ko..

anyway i just replaced my pups to dimarzio, nut sa graphtech, tuners sa sperzel because trip ko lang, i know something will improve so yeah, trip ko lang talaga hehe

ok.. so i went to JB music sa SM South Mall kanina.. here's what i found..

i was surprised na may bagong SE.. pero hindi ako naamaze na gitara, na-amaze ako sa ability ng JB na dalhin agad dito sa Pinas yung mga bagong models.. ang bilis ah!  :lol:

pero the price considerably went up.. my SE Standard was around 35k dati, tapos pag 30% off na sale ay nasa 25k lang.. pero ngayon, almost 30k na yung mga standard kahit old stock.. so maybe nasa 20% na yun.. sale price na yung ipopost ko..

don't ask why the Custom 24 is cheaper than the 22.. i don't know why.. lol.



Left to right:

SE Nick Catanse - 42,320
SE Orianthi - 40,560
SE 25th Anniv Custom - 38,800
SE Standard black - 29,600
SE Standard cherry - 29,600
SE Santana II - 33,600
SE Soapbar II - 27,840
SE Soapbar II - 27,840
SE Soapbar II flamed top - 29,600
SE Semi-hollow - 36,040
SE Custom 22 - 35,380
SE Custom 24 - 34,848
