hey man i got black ones from my tremonti se, and im looking for cream ones... want to trade? the tremonti se is arch top not flat so i hope yours is arch top.

but just to let you know prs se pickup rings are different than normal humbuckers... it may look the same but its not... i wasted money on that already...

Yep, same here, on the wasted money. Wound up putting the creme rings on an epiphone and then selling it. lol. Tuluks, I wonder if we wouldn't just have better luck going straight to PRS themselves?

i tried the prs website but came up with nothing, there's some on ebay but they're not for the se versions, they only fit the usa models apperantly.

The Tremonti SE and Singlecut SE are carved, but are flat around the pickups. I just traded some black ones for creme, otherwise I'd have traded you. You should be able to get some at Guitar Center. You need the flat bottom ones that are tapered.

The problem with those creme ones I got wasn't the curve, but the actual size of the rings themselves -- they were a hair too small. Like, I could have gotten them on, if I wanted them to look all warped and weird, but that's no good. Unless that happened because of the curve issue?

search 'cream arched pickup' or a combination of words to that effect... the guy i found had a shop!
