    Cracks in bobbins?

    ​ 2018 Custom Custom and 2019 Jazz, the only white Duncans I got. To my ears the cracks have a positive impact on the tone, kind of sound more open with more definition in the low mids, the chords ring out clear and have a distinct personality. I wish I had more pickups with cracked bobbins...

    2025 is the Year of Purple Guitars --> Let's See 'Em!

    That'd be mine, ofc pimped just because. Great player, probably the most comfortable I ever played.

    Black Winter with Custom wind, how would that work?

    Big fan of both BW and Custom here. Especially the double ceramic Custom is a really nice surprise and it got me thinking: what would a triple ceramic Custom, or a BW using Custom bobbins, sound like? I enjoy playing both a lot for different reasons. I find the double ceramic Custom sounding...

    My quiet rig

    Very basic: guitar into GE-7 into the TC 550 thing into the headphones. Sounds very tinnitus friendly and it makes me play more, which is a bonus. Surprisingly, Custom Custom beats my 3 JB versions and the BW in this combo for high gain bridge noodling, it's my favourite in this setup.

    A cheap decent noise gate

    Good thing about the NS-2 is the ability to connect the dirt pedals into its Send-Return loop. https://rolandcorp.com.au/blog/how-to-use-boss-ns-2-noise-suppressor-in-your-rig

    Neck hybrid: 59+Jazz, what to expect?

    So, I've got this broken 59 with the screw coil dead (don't ask, ID10t operator error) and a spare Jazz and was wondering if I can marry the screw coil from the Jazz with the 59 slug coil. I mean, of course I can if I don't fubar something. What to expect in terms of tone from the resulted...

    What happened to the trembucker type / position on the SD site?

    Just got a Black Winter trembucker today (very excited btw, will replace a Custom 8 in a Jackson Dinky!) and wanted to compare the DCR reading (N: 8.49K, S: 8.97K, Total: 17.46K) with the value displayed on the website, but for some reason the Trembucker option isn't available anymore. Think I...

    Bought a Jazz with some wiring issues(?)

    Hi all, first time poster here :) Bought a Jazz SH2N from an eBay seller (Australian based, I'm in Australia) with the intention to replace the '59 in my MIM Charvel San Dimas. The white label on the back shows "28791 20170205 SH2N NECK". It came with complete packaging, although the box wasn't...
