The PE - series were the Les Paul - kind guitars but this one is equipped like a strat with three pickups and a vintage style vibrato.
I recently put two rail humbuckers and a rail single coil in, here are some pics from my original post:
Tuning is an open D variant, often referred to as "Zen guitar tuning": D-A-D-a-a-d.
I have the same guitar. But quilted maple. SSS. No pickguard. Would love info too
