    DiMarzio Titan vs BKP Brute Force

    Hey there, folks! I might be looking for an upgrade to an Ibanez S320 (22 fret, mahogany body, ZR trem). I might load it with a .011 string set and tune it to D (whole step down), for a mean Metal machine. However, stock pickups are crap (INF1 + INF2). I had a set on my RG470 and I got rid of...

    [HELP] STK-S4 phase issue in HSS configuration

    Re: [HELP] STK-S4 phase issue in HSS configuration I wasn't able to have them off the guitar, but I did test with a tiny magnet. I actually ended up demagnetizing the STKs, the other day!!! So, I went over and carefully remagnetized the STKs, so they were "N S NS". Thank you for all the...

    [HELP] STK-S4 phase issue in HSS configuration

    Hello there! Long time user of the STK-S4, and completely pleased with it, I decided to move things around a bit. I have a pair of STK-S4n/STK-S4m and they were installed with a Pearly Gates Plus on a very old Aria Pro II guitar. They were a bit "too much" for that guitar in particular, but ok...

However, I find the stock pickups a bit muddy. Not so "Tele-ish". I was thinking about the Bare Knuckle Brown Sugar...

    P-Rail bridge + Vintage Hot Stack Plus neck - RWRP or not?

    Hey folks! Looking forward to modding a HSS guitar. Since the middle pickup gets in the way, I'm going to lower it all the way down and just keep the neck/bridge pickups wired. I really want a P-Rail (TBPR-1b) bridge. And I think the Vintage Hot Stack Plus (STK-S7) is a great companion...

    Pickup suggestion, please...

    Hey there! I'm rebuilding an 89 Yamaha RGX612S. It's a wonderful super-strat from back in the hey days of shred. Alder body, bolt-on maple neck, rosewood board, 24,75" scale, Yamaha RM-Pro trem (which reminds me a lot of Ibanez's ZR). However, it's going to be tuned down to C (standard C, not...
