Lipstick bridge and Phat Cat neck in series with a 1 meg volume, spin a split, and phase switch to split to either pup. Came out insane. Perfect combo for a bright sound.

Thanks! In comparision to the others, it's the brightest and most single coiley. With the lipstick selected, 1 meg volume between 8-10, and the spin a split between 0-3, it's very single coiley, detailed and edgey. Other combinations are more warm but still pretty bitey. Very happy with this one. I was thinking of a low wind single coil to go with a Phat Cat tone wise since you don't need very much heat to end up with enough fatness with 2 pups in series. Was thinking about a tele then thought no.. teles are 8k. Then thought duh! Lipstick. The tone character of the 2 pickups go well together. My first time trying the lipstick and it sounds very good. Kind of a cross between a strat and tele.Last edited by Clint 55; 11-04-2020, 07:41 AM.The things that you wanted

Lipstick pickups were always too weak and bright for me.Administrator of the SDUGF

Yeah. I never wanted to touch them with a 10 foot pole. It works here because 1. it's the 5k bridge model in the neck, 2. I can select either pup - go to the pc if I want fatter, and 3. I can roll up the spin o split to bring in the pc in series to boost the lipstick.
If I were making a regular strat loaded pickguard for a customer, what I would do is use the bridge model for the neck and middle and make a stag mag out of 2 for the bridge. Maybe a bridge and a neck. Then either a 250k or 100k volume.Last edited by Clint 55; 11-04-2020, 01:43 PM.The things that you wanted

Honestly, most people who use them are in love with the looks, and don't really think about the sound. I think you have done something interesting here, so those criticisms don't really apply.Administrator of the SDUGF
