Re: HHx
I'm gonna start working on expanding my middle humbucker guitar collection sooner or later. What types of humbuckers do you find work the best in the middle? I like P90s in the middle, but I'm trying to look at humbuckers I'm that spot now.You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright
Whilst you can only wonder why

Re: HHx
Cool. Yeah a mid hb is a great sound. I'd say anything would work except for hot bridge humbuckers which I think are unnecessary. For me, something a little hotter than vintage is working well with a little more punch but not too hot to either be compressed or out of balance with the bridge. My Phat Cat bridge is 8.5k and my Distortion neck/Full Shred neck is 9.6k. So I'd say medium to low medium output works great. Regular vintage output will work fine also probably if you're balancing with a medium output in the bridge. Full hot output bridge pups are unnecessary I think.

I like the look, but it would get in the way of the pick and my hybrid picking fingers. On my Strat, I lower the middle pickup flush with the pickguard, so it is just a weird personal quirk.Administrator of the SDUGF

But it's missing a neck pickup . . . the best sound that a guitar makes!Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

But I get it that many never touch the neck pickup, and like the middle more.Last edited by Clint 55; 04-05-2019, 08:25 PM.

If you play that Distortion/JB in series do yourself a favor and get strap locks or at the very least make sure you have your thumb wrapped around that low-E.87 Kramer Pacer Deluxe, 87 Kramer Pacer Imperial, 88 Kramer Nightswan, 83 Kramer V, 88 Kramer F3000, 87 Charvel Model-3, Charvel Jake mutt, > into some rack stuff.
