    I was gonna recommend the Wolfetone Fenris, which is their JB-output-ish Timber Wolfe with an A2 mag. Sounds like you already got there.

      Yeah, when I first tried a JB A2, I thought it sounded good too. But that unrelenting JB mid spike kept gnawing at me til I couldn't stand it any longer.

      When you get tired of that unmistakable upper-mid JB tone, just get yourself a CC...and be satisfied/happy forever.

        Dual fillister poles attenuate that somewhat, but I agree, that "mwah" is still there.

ID:	6147617 annnd done. at least for now. wlh neck, jb bridge. 500k neck volume, 250k bridge volume, 500k push/pull tone splits both pups, .022 cap. quick test and seems like it works pretty damn well. too late to give it a real test now so thatll have to wait till tomorrow

            NIce guitar. Where did you get that body (HH with contour and no pickguard)? I'm looking for one in transparent black.

                It looks like it has holes for some sort of pickguard.

                    ummm i just wired it up with the wlh and jb so not pulling anything out for a while

                    the body and neck are from someone that used to work at usa custom guitars as far as i know. i got this used and it did used to have a black pickguard on it, but i like it better off. super light weight ash body with belly and forearm contours, and super chunky korina neck but still balances well. and apparently, i was pretty set on this combo reading my older posts in this thread

                        I agree that it looks better without a pickguard on such a nice piece of wood.
