These are some excellent mini-humbuckers. It’s a great category of pickup that people seem to overlook all the time, and treat as some kind of revolutionary sound every time they get rediscovered over the decades. The cleans sound like single-coil perfection, but when cranked up into distortion the trebles suddenly get tamed enough so they don’t slice your ears off.

I wouldn't bet on it. The ones made by Mr PRS are already worth something. Random ones mass-produced made by random people aren't worth but the materials, labour and the price you put on the brand name. They might hold their value a little better in the future with prestige, but the modern day Gibson's will only hold their value at best, very few will become expensive cause there's 100,000's of them. The Les Pauls from 59 made "by hand" where they sold less than 650 and then famous musicians made them sought after and due to their rarity and desirability are worth $400,000+ the one from the 60s are like $7-30K, cause there's more of them. ones from the 70's are worth $2-7K obviously all ballpark random figures I pulled out of nowhere but you see what I mean. Maybe in 2134 all the Les Pauls will have been smashed when music gets banned in 2058 and the lone surviving 2002 Les Paul Standard comes up, it might be worth $400,000 but being as people are taking real good care of this shit nowadays, humidity controlled rooms/ cases n that. People buying guitars as an investment for the future is a silly thing, unless it's a limited edition signature one where they actually do only make 125 or something. The only way to actually make money is to have bought a while ago and sit on it til something like the pandemic happens and everyone in the world wants to play guitar again. They're not investments they're tools. Use them! (Obviously you do with the comment, this was more broadly for anyone reading)

It's strange no one says nothing about the SSC2 system on Suhr Guitars: it's a dummy coil away from the strings and it captures only the noise without affecting the tone ad all. It's great! If you want single coil sounds with no noise, it's the best option. I think NF3 pickups are great but different. They can achieve P90ish tone at full volume, more single coily tones rolled down a bit, but they change something (not in a bad way, if you like it).

Im glad you reviewed this one. I haven’t tried their wide thin neck profile. Will have to check em out in the local shop. I prefer pattern thin which is very close to my 5 Solar guitars that i have. Got my PRS Tremonti SE single cut in my lap now actually and that’s pattern thin. I think the the reason there’s hammer marks on the tremolo block is coz of the crappy springs that they use. My Tremonti broke my tremelo spring removal tool !! They are wedged in there. Took me 30 minutes using a lot of tools to remove the springs. I was hoping you’d use the tremelo to test tuning stability. Good review though Cheers from NZ 😎🎸🤘

Edit: and i emailed PRS about what profile it was with my serial number in case i wanted something similar and they came back to me and confirmed that it was pattern thin. Will take your word on wide thin although I’ll have to try one in a shop. The beauty of Solar guitars is that they only have one neck profile for all of their guitars so you have confidence of what you’re ordering. I bought 5 Solars during covid 19 lockdowns. Awesome guitars, perfect neck for me. Been searching for that neck. The Tremonti SE was very similar. Tremelo tuning stability was the issue. Took me nearly 2 years to sort it out. Put fu-tone springs in it, had to file the nut lots of emails with PRS support. Didn’t want to sell it coz when it was in tune ? Great guitar. Blocked the trem for a while but yeah it’s stable now.

Umm i suppose i bought the second one coz i'd never had a single cut guitar, it was the GC 1.6 T-FAB - the guitar Ola gave his dad as it turned out. A guitar - hard tail gibson esque - stays in tune - second best guitar i've ever played, and coz we were locked down due to covid and all the Solar necks are the same ? yeah i bought the A1.6FRC which was a pre-order, and then during the second NZ lockdowns i bought the E1.6FBB pre-order arrived June 2020 i think. Man what a nice guitar. Why ? Coz my mum had died, i got some $$$ just before lockdowns. So glad i spent it on guitars coz i spent a lot on strippers before the lockdowns 🙂 Sold one to pay for medical bills - regret that sale. Bought another in Nov 2022 - one of the best guitars i own. Single cut with FR. Any Solar with FR in the model name means Floyd Rose. The E1.6 FBB is Evertune equipped and man, that aggressive thing plays cleans nicely and never goes out of tune. Would i buy more Solar guitars ? Yes, same as why Trogly buys Gibsons. Difference is that all Solar necks are the same. Obviously 7 string necks are different to six string necks, but you know what i mean. So i you have 1 ? You can just go to the website and go "yep i like that new X shaped guitar, pick the colour, order it and you'll know it has the same neck as your other Solars. Let me know if you have any other Qs I currently cant work due to pending cancer treatment so i couldn't buy more Solars even if i wanted to, but i'll beat it and buy more, coz why not ?

with a good set up, a tremolo will work fine. I don't use them so I'm not the guy to demo it

You know what sounds just like single coils? Single coils.

Agreed lol I main Fender more than Gibson. These absolutely do not sound like single coils to me. Just thinner humbuckers. Somewhere between P90 and Humbuckers. So it would go single coils, P90s, these new PRS humbuckers, mini humbuckers, then normal humbuckers on the range of "thinness" for me.

Are those inlays really badly routed, or are those supposed to be outlines around the bird?

I was thinking about scooping up the Orange Metallic, but that orange calls for a confederate flag and a "01" decal somewhere. So I got the gun metal gray with rosewood, and one of the pearl white with maple ones instead.

What was that black thing wedged under the trem during the play through section?

I have to be completely honest, I still prefer a real single coil sound, these are very chimy, and sound pretty good, but they definitely still don't sound single coil. Even the overdrive is just kind of okay. Definitely an awesome guitar, and fir the price point, it sounds amazing
