Not tapped using the sane methods of course ... oh no ... using the bonkers vintage seventies Gibson Norlin era long and separate tap wire!
Well mate, you'll get skinned knuckles installing these :-) but they'll do the job.
Note ... these will get pukka gold plated nickel covers ... but I always put gold plated slug poles in ... just in case the customer should want 'uncovered some day ... and cos I know they're there and the job's done right.

It sounds like a rocking demon pickup.
Why 3 magnets? I know nout about pickups...
The infamous Gibson Dirty Fingers humbucker had three magnets ... as do some Bill Laurence high output ones. It gives MAHOOSIVE ammounts of raw power without having to over-wind too much.
However, whereas the Dirtry Fingers is a tad muddy, this one is very clear ... and splits nicely of course.

You may experience a few problems with the neck pickup height when installing into a set necked PRS, this is caused by having fairly long pole piece screws but can be easily fixed by swapping them out for shorter ones.
I haven't had chance to try them out loud yet but so far so good at a lower volume, the customer service from Ash is excellent and he will always get back to you on the same day (usually in less than an hour), he shortened a set of screws for the neck pickup over the easter holidays and posted them out on the first working day at no extra cost, can't ask for more than that!
A big +1 from me!
The guitar looks superb ... I really to warm to road worn PRSs
