Haha ew. Honestly the only RGs I'll ever like are black or pewter. Starting to play mine more. Somewhat.

I think i've found the one!! My god the neck is so thin and perfect. I think my prs is just too valuable to continue lugging around japan so ill ship it back home at some point.

The neck pickup appears to be a PAF pro. The bridge and middle pups were painted somewhat sloppily by the original owner but i think it looks cool. Almost no fretwear and the bridge seems to have minimal wear as well! awesome!

Nice.

Paf Pros are marked 151 underneath IIRC.

Nice pickup in the neck (and bridge too)
Wonder if it has the old Tone Zone in the bridge? That was always the old favorite upgrade combo for these back in the day.

Paf pros are awesome. That's such a cool guitar, it's so wrong but in the best way possible. Very very cool guitar.
