I have the Full Shred set, both bridge and neck, in a Strat. That neck pickup does have single coil vibe, specially with overdrive and high gain, cleans are great. However the middle position is very similar to neck so I may add a middle pickup to get more sounds from this set.

For people using the Duckbucker in the middle of an HSH guitar, What works best in your experience, split the humbuckers or non split? What humbuckers have you tried?

I did not like the SSL-6 in the neck when I tried it with my STK-S6 in the bridge it was too much bass and lacked treble when I set me I EQ to make the STK-S6 sound good. But I also do remember the STK-S6 in the neck performed well, I think it has a touch less bass than the SSL-5 or SSL-6, in a...

The goal is playing high gain stuff, no blues, no jazz, just hard rock and metal. But being that said, I love the sound of neck for leads, I switch back and for neck and bridge.

That is me, I like playing a lot neck pickup around fret2 10 or 12 and above.

I have a Strat with 21 frets and couple of "Super Strat" with 22 frets. I really love the sound of the neck pickup for both clean arpegios, mild overdrive and lead. I think I may want to try getting a non expensive 24 fret Jackson, an entry level one, put some duncans I have spare, and see if I...

I wanted a singing neck tone for soloing with my HSS Strat, now I know the stock ceramic was the problem, then finding the correct bridge for that, the realizing I needed a better amp, then I realized I love different sounds from different guitars, eventually getting a tube amp, now trying to...

Interesting, I like Yamaha basses, good wound for reasonable price. I think I can try that TRBX-505 (34" scale) the same store as some Jacksons (35").

Are there any Sterling Stingrays with 35 inch scale? That is my favorite sound.

New string same brand and gauge gave same results. What did you mean?

I had 5 string bass once and noticed a dramatic reduction in presence in the low B string. For example a 4 bass string with drop D would sound more present that playing D note on the B string in the 5 string bass. Also, the low B note in the low B string did have rumble but not that much...

I was expecting the usual sticker with a date.

I just wanted to share that this combo is working great or me. I had tried the Jazz in neck which by is a great pickup in my opinion but the Alnico ii Pro is sitll chimey but it a touch of extra mids that for my taste works better with the JB in the bridge. WHen soloing it is a bit thicker but...

I cannot longer find Planet Waves cables and every internet/Amazon search shows D'Addario instead. I remember Planet Waves used to be part of D'Addario, did they just rebrand the products? The most durable guitar cable I had was a Planet Waves one of those those sturdy plastic cover behind the...
