    How the heck to install single braided pickup?

    Custom Custom Sound Clips?

    Hello Everyone, I'm new to this forum :wave:and I was wondering if anyone had sound clips of the Custom Custom. I was thinking about putting it into my MIM Strat; I heard it sounds great in Strats. I currently have a Full Shred and it's very trebly. Thanks for your help!
