I'm getting a bit frustrated with my hard ash strat / rosewood neck at the point I'm thinking about getting rid off that body.
I' was looking for a good all around PU, especially with soft crunch to moderate higher gain, the tone you can still clean up with the volume pot.
I tried a number of HB in bridge position, installed for a while, enough to tune my ears (at least a couple of months), then changed them, here is the list:
- SD '59 nails on a chalckboard and a giant black hole sucking the mids
- GFS VEH grammy award for the worst interaction wood / pickup ever
- SD A2P too much bright, output level too low
- SD JB screaming mid high, like a hammer on an anvil
- SD CC middy, strange bass, I'd say clumsy
- SD Custom too much dry, lifeless, like sandpaper on iron on highs
- '59/CC hybrid nor fish nor flesh, uninspiring
I tried every thing with 500K and 250K vol pot.
Any idea before selling the body or using as a fireplace log?
