    Sounds awesome. Been listening to a lot of Houseplant lately and really enjoying it. I really like the way the Legends and Antiquity pickups sound in your SG demos and live videos. We have a similar playing style and taste in tones, I'd say. What would you think about putting either of those (or something else) in a PRS Hollowbody? Looking for something with clarity, but want to make sure it doesn't get too sterile... or overly complex either I guess. Thanks!!
