After getting so much help on whether a Hotrails, with it's brass ferrules molded in, could be direct-mounted, I used the toothpick suggestion I got here and decided to put one in my HSS MIJ Jackson. (The HotRails neck version happened to be one of the 3-4 Duncan pickups my local GC had in stock-place is darned near empty.)
I've got it *barely* missing the fretted string, and its output is much lower than the JB in the bridge and the HotStack (that came stock) in the middle-quite a bit lower.
I've got red and white soldered together, green and bare to ground and black to hot, so I think I wired it ok; I was honestly expecting quite a bit more output from this thing, so I'm assuming I have something catywampus...any ideas?
Thanks,
Larry
