Can anyone with a diagram writer help me out? I am putting a pair of nickel cover Pearly Gates humbuckers in my Stratocaster. No middle pickup just HH. I'd like the wiring to be as follows Switch 1. Neck 2. Neck+Exposed Bridge Coil 3. Neck+Bridge 4. Bridge+Exposed Neck Coil 5. Bridge Pots...

So I really wanna try the Parallel Axis pickups in my PRS Mira. But I'm unsure which to get. I have an American Made Core Mira not the S2. So would I need to get the custom shop Crazy 8 set? or will the Regular Trembucker set work? I want the high output for some punch and drive. I play mostly...

Working on a build and I want a bridge pickup that would pair well with the Sustainiac. Something that can produce powerful violin hums and drones. Something that's capable of good harmonics and natural midrange growl. Any thoughts?

I have a pair of Lil 59 pickups sitting at the house. I have a Tele Deluxe that I'm not crazy about the factory N3 pickups. If I buy a Lil 59 Tele Bridge pickup... and get a pickguard sized for a Strat neck pickup... will the Lil 59 Tele Bridge and Lil 59 Strat Neck pair well together or are...

So I got two Railhammer Humcutter Billy Corgan pickups that I'm gonna put in my Telecaster. The Bridge is 13Kohms and the neck is 7.5Kohms. They have sort of a P90ish tone with more of a top end to them. But not quite as spanky as a single coil. I'd like to hear to opinions on what might be a...

So I'd like to ask for some wiring advice for a Strat project I'm doing with a set of P Rails. Gonna use the Triple Shot handle all the various switching options with the pickups. So I'm mainly looking for info on the selector switch. Seems with the Triple Shot in place I only need a 3 Way...

I have a strat build that I am putting together and I want to use a set of P-Rails for the tonal variety. Can the Triple Shot rings be used on a strat pickguard without interfering with the strings? May be a stupid question but I don't want to invest if it's gonna cause an issue.

Anyone have a wiring diagram for the Reverend Billy Corgan model. I'm currently working on a strat build with korina body but with Gibson scale length and thought it would be cool to just toss the BC signature guts in it (I'm a big fan). So I bought some Railhammer BC pups and am looking for...

I want to put a 3 piece set of Lil 59s in my strat... but I want black. Can the custom shop do that? If not... what would be a good match for the middle position between the Lil 59 Bridge and Neck? The Bridge has a DCR of 11.7 and the neck 9.8. The Cool Rails Bridge is 10.6. That seems like a...

So as usual I'm having ideas. A P90 is basically just a single coil pickup right? Has anyone ever put two of them together to form a P90 Humbucker? Thinking about trying this in a Strat. Basically have 4 P90s but paired together for hum canceling. Thoughts? Do I need my guitar ownership rights...

I am so not a wiring guy so I was wondering if I could get some help with this. I am having two humbuckers installed in my guitar. And I'm trying to plan it out and buy the parts needed so that I can just drop it off at my luthier and let them go at it. I want to basically have the ability to...

Before anyone goes there... I know it won't be the exact same thing... I know it won't sound exactly the same... I'm trying to get close. With that being said... I have an HSS guitar that I want to achieve some PAF Burstbucker type tones in the neck position. Right now it has Lindy Fralin...

So I'm curious about the Shadow Nanomag that is in the Epiphone Les Paul. From what I can tell it's a magnetic pickup but has many characteristics of a piezo. It is effected by the vibrations of the instrument. I am in the market for a resonant pickup that will translate a guitars natural tone...

Tons of great pickups out there. All with their own unique qualities. But which type of pickup best reads and translates the intrinsic resonance of the guitar itself? Whether it be a size format, magnet type, wind type whatever. Humbucker, Single Coil, P-90, Piezo, Active, ect ect. Are their...

So I have a strat that is my baby. It's been upgraded and modded to the point that only the electronics and body are the same. Now I'm gunning for electronics. It has a custom pickguard so I can't just change the pickguard... I have to modify it if anything. I am determined to put a P90 in the...
