    Help: Seymour Duncan Little '59/Vintage Stack Tele Set Wiring Diagram

    You won't find that specific combination, but 4-conductor pickup wiring these days is always the same for Duncan. Just use the stacks diagram. https://www.seymourduncan.com/images/wiring-diagrams/Tele_2TSTK_4B_1V_1T.pdf

    How To Achieve Real Vacuum Tube Saturation On Amp Modeling

    I think tube tone is pretty easy to get. What emulators and solid state circuits almost never get right is the response characteristics of how tubes shift into distortion. There's several things that happen there. The sound starts sparkling clean. When the signal starts to break the limit of...

    RW/RP middle pickup not humbucking

    If it were me, I'd just get a normal single for the middle then. It's not worth screwing with more than that.

    NGD (a little late)

    Must be an inside joke. I'm not following the Steinberger part.

    RW/RP middle pickup not humbucking

    I would just flip the hot/ground on the single coil myself. AFAIK Ibanez uses a proprietary switch, you can't just change the tap.

    NGD (a little late)

    Really nice! I can think of 4-5 Duncan combos that would make it sound stellar and work for a whole lot of music. But DiMarzios aren't all bad - I have a VV 54 Pro and Injector in my Jackson mated up with a Custom Custom in the bridge and it does almost any kind of music you can name.

    RW/RP middle pickup not humbucking

    I thought most all (with few exceptions) Duncan Strat pickups are wound to match Fender's spec, which is reverse polarity relative to Duncan Humbuckers, so you'd just have to flip the hot and ground? (Either flip the humbucker wires, or flip the QP wires) FWIW the Custom Shop has a single...

    Are high output pickups outdated?

    IME That's the same effect as running it after - the compressor makes you hear the gate open and close.

    Are high output pickups outdated?

    Noise gates don't work well with compressed signals because there isn't enough transient range to trigger the gate vs it being open all the time. If you reverse the order, you get a different problem where the compressor turns up the sound of the gate opening and closing.

    Sqaubins. Would PRS ever allow SD to make custom shop Duncans with the PRS look?

    Imma say no. But it depends if Duncan released theirs in or before 1991. Or if WSC in 1991 was first.

    What's a good amp switching pedal?

    I have the Morley. Power is just to light up the LED to show which amp is active. That's just to switch my guitar to the input of two different amps. Switching cabs from the same amp head, I think the only concern is the moment between cabs if there are any power anomalies in doing that which...

    Can I buy this Epiphone Explorer back? link inside

    Can't you PM the person who bought it? Are they still an active member?

    Trying to be different

    The blend as stated, I don't see how that would work. You've specified two blends on one pot. You can only blend two things, not three (unless you were thinking of using the blend to ground out the bridge and neck as a blend?? I don't know if that works. Haven't tried it.). Just use 3...

    Hmm, lawsuit?

    P-Rails is a registered trademark of Seymour Duncan. They'll have to change it. https://www.seymourduncan.com/single-product/p-rails

    What's the next 50th Anniversary release?

    Stag Mag sounds like a Custom Custom, but a little more vintage/PAF/Alnico 2 Pro soft in the bottom end. Stag Mag works well in all coil configurations IME.
