Hey John, saw these pickups for sale and thought of you. These are similar to the ones you got a while back, right? I thought you might want to know about another set that was for sale. I know these are covered, and your others were not open coil, but it might still be something that interests you.

PRS 57/08 pickups...

Yeah, not my thing...and not for that kind of money, but I though John might care about these.
 
thanks so much... a bit pricey. baimun has a set and loves them. I love my 5909's though... they scream while remaining nice and articulate!!!
 
AH, it was the 5909s that you were raving about. I don't know much about PRS pickups, and I thought from the description that these might be the uber rare pickups that so impressed you.
 
I love the 5708s in my Sunburst 22. These are priced a bit high - when I got a spare set from PRS a while back during their free pickup promo, they sold for $325, which has been about the going rate over at Birds and Moons....
 
I can't imagine dropping $400 on a set of pickups.

I spent $400 a while ago on a set up uncovered 5909's... I found out talking to a tech at PRS that they are incredibly rare as PRS never offered them to the public, nor does it plan to. That being said, someone offered me $500 for them over at Birds and Moons... crazy
 
$400 sounds reasonable when considering the $1200 cost of the new Seymour Duncan silver-wire pickups.

Not to me... To me, $400 for a set of pickups is pretty fucking ridiculous... $1200 for a set of pickups with silver wire is pretty pretty pretty fucking fucking fucking ridiculous ridiculous ridiculous...

if you're the kind of person to spend $1200 on pickups, then $400 seems reasonable. nobody i know is that type of person though.
