Paul Reed Smith Explains PRS Pickup Design | PRS Guitars

[@danielwmwolf]

He is such a pickup artist.🏆🖖

[@mathiasjapri]

he want to prove tone wood is hoax.

[@vintagetubeamplifiers]

@@mathiasjapri Because it is!

[@hydorah]

@@mathiasjapri He's saying the opposite. He said the pickup is the microphone. Not the voice. Tonewood deniers say the pickup is the voice - and materials are irrelevant. He stops short of talking about tonewood as he knows this video is going on KZbin and would be lit up with rage if he said anything about it. He's a smart fellow

[@sgt.grinch3299]

Pick ups and speakers are the two components that have the most impact of your tone. If your speakers are junk you have no shot at good tone.

[@godbyone]

The wood gives the strings vibration s. So maybe it’s the the wood you are hearing. But the strings reacting to wood. The pick ups. Hear the reactions.

[@carminelombardi9575]

I'm going to buy my first PRS, because Paul is so passionate about the most minut details, I want to support and be a part of that culture.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

Paul is a total guitar nerd and he makes no secret about it. He is also one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He remembers names like nobody I've ever met before, and he personally signs birthday cards for every employee. PRS factory employee here.

[@thanhhuynh2044]

The other day (a clinic in NL) a woman asked why there were no prs tours, especially when they were in DC/usa in a few weeks. He answered it was not possible (due to covid restrictions), but he offered her to contact him for a meet up upon arrival. For a personal meet up and when possible a personal tour. She asked for her husband. How much must the dude adore her?!?!😊

[@trawl7880]

Nice, good stuff. you think i can put Pauls pickups in my 35th S2. My most favorite ever. they sound awesome. I think the 35th anniversary copied Paul's gtr switching for the toggles. Keep up the exceptional work.

I'm a 66 year old noodler and finally learned something interesting about guitar pickups. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, Paul.

[@dankers12]

I love that explains this simply without talking down to us. What a class act.

[@Pete1980ification]

yea, even if some of it goes against physics. If your pickups are microphonic, get new pickups. A microphone is a transducer that converts vertical pressure waves into electrical waves. A pickup is a transducer that converts magnetic waves into electrical waves. A well-made, shielded pickup is impervious to vertical pressure waves... This FACT is very bad for guitar manufacturers who like to sell expensive tone wood... Having said that PRS makes some of the best sounding guitars in the world, they do because they use nice pickups, none of it comes from the wood- 0% of it, ever. The neck vibrations and wood tone parts are all wine snifting....

[@anime5h_m1shr4]

As an engineer that plays guitar, I absolutely love the frequency response graph. Best way to explain the differences between pickups.

[@jpage5303]

same! i do R&D and I love the research approach to it.

[@williardbillmore5713]

If he had graphically illustrated their respective signal to noise ratios as well it would have given a much better picture of the sonic differences between HB and SC pickups. When the frequency response is weighted with a bunch of noise it can make single coil pickups a lot less desirable.

[@markkeneson6806]

As an engineer, do you ever wonder about the glacial progress of electric guitar design? For instance, we are still using 1/4 inch connectors that were designed in the late 19th century, and high impedance pickups with passive electronics. Of course, there are some guitars with active electronics, but they are far less common, and even they still use 1/4 inch connectors.

[@williardbillmore5713]

@@markkeneson6806 It is the nature of guitarists to want the exact same instruments that their heroes play and played. Whenever Gibson or Fender try to modernize or improve their instruments they are thanked with sales slumps and bad mouthing. For example; Gibson could fix their head-stock splitting problem tomorrow by changing the way the head-stock is made by making the head-stock separately with through grain and putting it on the neck with a scarf joint. If they did that Les Paul sales would stop completely.. "Jimmy Page never had a scarf joint on his LP how could I sound exactly like him on a LP with a scarf joint?" As long as "vintage tone " is considered sacred and the myth of "tone wood" prevails nothing on popular guitars will ever evolve.

[@markkeneson6806]

@williard billmore , thanks for the response, and I think you are right. It's unfortunate, but that's what the market demands. Look at bass guitarists, they have on-board active electronics and sometimes XLR connectors. I guess bass players are less obsessed with having the exact same instruments as their heroes.

[@ChapelCollins]

I want to see a video where Paul corrects his bullshit and explains that electric guitar pickups ARE NOT MICROPHONES!

[@sixslinger9951]

Paul is no joke. He really knows his stuff and the main reason why his company is one the biggest in the world now. I bought a new PRS Custom 24 back in 1992 and barely knew anything about the company. At that time, it was the most I ever paid for a guitar. 30 years later it is still one of the best guitars I've ever owned. The thing is magic thanks to Paul and his team.

[@0megalul309]

only took him 30 years to become a top 3 in USA, taking the fight to F and G who were around for more than twice as long.

[@MainPrism]

I completely agree!!! I bought my first PRS Custom 24 in 2021 not knowing much at all about the company. Best guitar I've ever owned hands down... So good in fact I bought 2 more PRS that same year. Getting ready to purchase another one in the next few months. Love me some PRS!!!

[@dancotterman1267]

You are lucky to have that much money to spend on guitars. Gibson won’t change anything and are way overpriced. Still decent investment though. I like PRS including their imports. For playing and investing. Not bad. Nice to have the original inventor and owner still alive and running the company.

[@gregholmberg2]

Finally, a pickup manufacturer talking about the frequency response curve of pickups! That peak he points out is the natural resonant frequency of the pickup. It's determined by the inductance of the pickup, measured in Henries. I wish pickup manufacturers quoted the Henries of their pickups--it's much more useful than DC resistance. The builder can control both the frequency and the height of this peak. I think it's important to realize that in all pickups, the frequency of this peak is well beyond the fundamental frequencies of the notes on a guitar. The fundamentals run from 82 to about 1100 Hz. Pickup peaks start at around 2000 Hz and can go beyond human hearing, but typically no more than 8000 Hz. So the peak is emphasizing overtones, not fundamentals. After this point, response falls off to zero. You can easily measure the frequency response of pickups yourself. All you need is an audio interface, some free software (like Room EQ Wizard), and Ken Willmott's "Integrator" device ($135).

[@jonathankvex]

I'm using Ken WIllmott's Integrator to do just that - I'm building a database to collect these frequency response curves for every pickup.

Simply superb. I'm sure glad that Paul has taken the realization of knowing he'd maybe never be a guitar God, to being the God of guitar tone. Just look at what his contributions were, are, and going to be. He's the Leo Fender and Les Paul of our time. BTW, my PRS/Doug Sewell HDRX-20 is heavenly. I am in the midst of upgrading my sweet PRS SE Custom 24 lefty with a custom adjustable nut as well as D'Addario Auto-trim locking tuning machines to make my guitar dream come true. PRS has helped make it all possible for me.

This is why PRS guitars are the best mass produced guitars in the world, his passion and knowledge are second to none for a company owner

[@IamMusicNerd]

I have to admit, I was skeptical whether all the PRS TCI claims was mostly marketing hype, and I wouldn’t be able to actually hear much of a difference. But I have been pleasantly surprised just how good some of them sound. Both the 58/15 LT in my core, and the MEV TCI pickups in the Modern Eagle V sound even better than my favorite Traditional Les Paul. They never get muddy no matter what pedal or amp I put them through. Very well done!

New to PRS, but I’m really loving what I see and hear so far. I personally don’t subscribe to, or understand the criticism regarding “mojo”. I think having a reliably consistent product is terrific. I don’t want to search through a bunch of the same model guitar looking for “the one”. I want to be able to look at a guitar that turns me on and know that visual aesthetic is the only difference between another guitar of the same model. That’s gold.

It would be awesome to have shown (or even release on the PRS website) the frequency response spectra for each pickup, so we can see quantitatively how they are voiced and compare output levels.

Glad he dropped this fact filled segment today. The timing is curious. There's been quite a bit of discussion recently about many of these topics. There's some quite frankly bad information out there regarding where the tone in a guitar comes from predominantly. The way PRS explains it, he doesn't take sides or bash the uneducated opinions of the KZbin masses. There are soo many things that effect tone to different degrees. To glom on to any single component and insist only that specific element of the rig is responsible for where your tone comes from, is just not accurate. You can buy all the fancy parts in the world trying to replicate someone else's sound. Why? Maximize what you have and rock out!

Great to see that his approach in developing pickups results in better products. He didn’t mention several other variables, such as the difference in output between humbuckers and single coils and the frequency response of our ears. In the end it is still our hearing and feeling experience that decides which pick-up suits the best. But with the systematically approach of designing pickups, he creates great sounding products for the most of us.
