Just pulled these out of my tele. The Dream 90 has two Alnico 5 magnets. Very warm, but punchy tone. Matches well with the 60's bridge. Hot 60's: $17.00 Dream 90: SOLD! I'll sell the pair for $30 + shipping. Paypal will work. Tele not included;)

I've got a QP in the bridge of my tele and a PC in the neck. I'm using a 500k pot for the volume. It works well with the P90, but I'm not sure about the QB. It's bright so I was wondering what the best solution would be. Is there a way to run a 250k for the QP? Can a run a separate vol pot and...

I just installed a Quarter Pound in my tele bridge last week and I'm getting a ton of buzz. When I touch the tone or volume knob it drops. I'm guess it has something to do with the grounding. I've got it soldered to the back of the volume pot. Any idea what's causing this? I'll open it up and...

So I've replaced my neck pickup with a Phat Cat and my bridge with a Quarter Pound in my CIJ 52RI Tele. All I can say is, WOW does this baby have chime! I also swapped out my 250 volume pot with a 500k. I'm going to see how this thing grows on me, but I may go back to a 250k. I miss some of...

I know this has to be annoying. I've posted my issues several times with wiring my Phat Cat. I do have it working thankfully. However I'm not getting much volume output from it. I have the height of the bridge and neck (PC) at the same distance from the strings and hardly get anything from the...

So I've modded my Phat Cat for a 4 way switch and still can't it to work. I have the switch wired correctly so I was testing continuity on the wiring. The hot won't give me anything. I tried this on my bridge pickup as well and the hot didn't work on that pickup either. How do you test...

So my PC saga continues. I popped off the back and opened her up to prep this baby for a 4-way switch. I lifted the white wire that was soldered to the back plate, and added and extension to this so I can it wire to the switch. Then I added a permeant ground wire from the back plate to my volume...

Just got word that my Phat Cat is in. It's going in the neck position of my tele and I was wondering how to wire it for a 4 way switch. I prefer the order go as follows: 1. bridge 2. neck 3. series 4. parallel Anyone know where I can find a schematic for that? My current pup is a GFS Dream 90...

I'm trying to find a wiring schematic for a 4 way switch bypassing the tone pot. I never roll back the tone pot so I thought I'd see if things sound better without. I guess I could try seperate volumes for the bridge and neck pickup. Sorry, I'm not smart enough to figure it out on my own...

Anyone compared the two? The only reason I ask is because I'm replacing my GFS with the Duncan. I'm sure it will be a better pup...or at least I hope it will! GFS is fairly cheap, but it seems the quality is there for the most part. However, I've never had the opportunity to compare. I will...

Hey Gang, first post here. I'm looking at replacing my tele bridge pickup with a stack or lil' 59 HB. I use a P90 at the neck (not a Duncan, but will probably replace it with a Phat Cat soon). So what I'm looking for is something that will balance well with the P90 and has a good mid range...
