Just picked up a Schecter Custom Solo E/A and absolutely love it.
It's got a push pull knob to split the humbucker coils, but I'm really not impressed by the tonal versatility from the pickups. They are a SD Custom Custom and a SD '59.
In the past, I've had a P-rail in the bridge of a Jackson Soloist w/ a Triple Shot ring, and loved the tonal versatility. So I've decided to get a P-rail set w/ triple shot rings for this guitar. I can't recall if I used a SHPR-2b "hot" or a normal 1b.
The reviews of the 2b hot P-rail seem pretty bad, but less than thorough. Some suggest that it might too feedback-y in a semi-hollow. I don't have much experience with semi-hollows, and especially not ones that have plently of laminated wood.
Since, I already have a piezo pickup in the Powerbridge setup, I had thought the normal bridge 1b parallel setting might be a little too similar in tone . . . and I wonder if I would have a broader palette of tones if I got the 2b.
Also . . .what to do with the push-pull knob now?
Any suggestions or thoughts?
