Would a Jazz neck with 300k volume pots sound similar to a 59 with 500k pots? I'm looking for a clear neck humbucker and was thinking of the 59. But I fear it will sound too dark/bassy with the stock 300k volume pots in my Les Paul. I don't really want to swap the pots because I want to do as...

Hi, I have a Gibson SG in which I put a Custom SH-5 and a Distortion neck. I put Schaller chrome covers on them. When plugged into the amp, they have a lot less volume than for example a Les Paul with a Jazz neck and Custom bridge. It's as if the tone or volume pots are not fully turned up, but...

Hi, the bridge pickup in my Gibson Les Paul Traditional ('57 Classic plus) sounds really bright compared to the neck '57 Classic, which is rather dark. I lowered the polepieces to get the harshness out and there is a difference, but the pickup still has that bright character. The pots are the...

I tried searching, but didn't find any conclusive information about a comparison. So how do these two compare? Is it true the pro track is really dark in the neck? Darker than the hot rails? I'm planning to use it in the neck position of a Jackson Adrian Smith SDX. I use a 500k volume pot and...

Dimarzio fast track covers:sold! I also have a HSS set from a Jackson Adrian Smith SDX. The humbucker is a super distortion clone, the singles are overwound alnico V, measuring 13k. I'lm asking $60 shipped for the set.

I recently got a Jackson Adrian Smith SDX. I read various times that the single coils (neck and middle position) are supposed to be noiseless. Is this true? Mine are not, except in position 4 (neck + middle). They are stacked pickups (two coils on top of one another). Also, what are the wiring...

Hi, I put an old JB I had lying around in my Fender Strat. The problem is, it's black and my strat is arctic white. So it doen't look "right". Is there any way I can make it white? I know there are stickers for this kind of purpose, but they don't come in trembucker spacing, only in standard...

To put in my Fender Strat. Also possible: trade with black JB TB-4, black hot rails bridge, classic stack STK-S1 or 90's black fender ceramic humbucker (14K).

Hot rails neck: black, 4 wire, old style, no logo Classic stack: black with logo, 2 wire I'm willing to trade these for a lower output neck single coil-sized pickup (lil '59, JB Jr, cool rails...) and a higher output single coil-type (quarter pounder, vintage rails, SSL-3,...).

I bought a used hot rails a while ago. It has two black rails, a black ceramic bar magnet between two blades, no logo and only a sticker on the bottom that says "NP" (neck position?). It has the correct kohm value the old duncan hot rails have. Is it legit or could it be a fake?

Why (not)? Please discuss.

Duncan Distortion Mayhem set, as good as new, black: $ 100 shipped to anywhere in the world OR: trade with zebra Custom/Jazz set

All black, 90 € for the set shipped to Europe Or 50€ per pickup, shipped Also: looking for some zebra lower output pups

So I ordered the Distortion Mayhem set for an Epi LP. So far I like the bridge pickup, but the SH-6n sounds kinda dark and bassy when played clean. It's also too tight and compressed. I'm a metalhead, but I think I might need something more "vintage" here. I also think the guitar sounds...

The pickup is brand new, black with logo. PM me with suggestions.
