$PRS S2 #7 vs Suhr Doug Aldrich pickups Quick comparison between the stock PRS S2 #7 pickups and the uncovered Suhr Doug Aldrich pickups in my PRS S2 Singlecut Standard guitar I didnt change the strings, same pick used each time The Suhr pickups have notably more output, i can pretty much distort the clean/get it to break up on the preset if i dig in more, Im not sure if it comes across so much on the video but the higher output leads to more gain/saturation as well on the overdrive comparisons, really happy with these pickups in any case Comparison made playing the same riffs/licks as on my Core tones preset video , also using the exact same preset, downloadable via my presets link below for Fractal Audio units Axe FX3 / FM3 / FM9 great pickups in any case for Les Paul style guitars ►►► All my Fractal audio presets 🎸: https://ko-fi.com/s/5a6542f393 ►►► Buy me a coffee ☕: https://ko-fi.com/paulbradshawguitar ►►► All my links 🎧: https://linktr.ee/paulbradshawguitar TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Clean comparison 00:50 Clean amp w/Overdrive pedal 02:10 PLEXI time 02:58 5153 Crunch 03:57 Thoughts #guitar #prsguitars #suhr #guitarpickups #lespaul #gibson #tone #fractalaudio #guitarist$
