Hey Everyone, I played a Charvel DK 24 HH Hardtail today, in satin black. It has two humbuckers, and both have 2 black bobbins with chrome hex screws. I told the store manager how much I liked it and commented that it must have a Full Shred set. He looked the guitar model up, and the website...

This guy has been a challenge. Ebony fingerboard, mahogany neck and chambered mahogany body. Came with Godin neck pickup which was very muffled and muddy with Duncan 59 bridge, which was shrill. Went with a WLH set. Bridge still too bright and neck too dark. Played with it for 2-3 years...

Hello everyone, I have a Godin Icon guitar, 24 3/4 inch scale guitar with mahogany body, mahogany neck, and ebony fretboard. I recently swapped out a WLH set because the bridge was a bit too bright and the neck too dark. I have seen that Godin is now frequently putting in Jazz in the neck...

Hi everyone, I have a new CC and Jazz neck that I'd like to use for a 2 HB guitar. 1 tone, 1 volume, 5-way super switch. I would like to get: 1) Bridge HB 2) Bridge HB in parallel 3) Bridge HB with Neck HB 4) Bridge HB with Neck HB in Parallel 5) Neck HB Anyone know if this is possible?

So that is the question. Is it possible? Can I use a multimeter to determine pot values in wired tone circuit in the guitar without unwiring it? Thanks

I've gotten several emails about Duncan pickups and switching diagrams that go to seymourduncan.contraport.com. My browser never connects, and I've tried two different browsers. Also, most of the pickup pages on the website have sound samples without the ability to select the bridge pickup...

Looking for versatile neck pickup possessing bite with gain in a Les Paul guitar. Always find that neck pickups are on the muddy/mushy side. Heard that the A2Pro (APH-1) is on the dark, perhaps buttery side, so I fear mud/mush with it. I read that the APH-2 Slash has more bite, but also read...

That's the question. If not, how else do they differ? Thanks.

Guitar is Godin Icon, 24.5 scale, mahogany with ebony fretboard, giving guitar lots of high end, more than I like. Has WLH set. While before I was going to change the bridge out, I've decided I like it. Neck, however, sounds congested with gain. APH-1n was recommended for neck before in...

Hi all, I have a Cort G290, early 2000s. Plays great with the fret level and dress it had. Because the pickups were not great before, I wasn't playing it as much until the last year. Changing the pickups to a 59B and two STK-S4s drastically improved the tone, since this guitar is for some...

Hi Everyone, I've got a Godin Icon guitar (their version of an LP Custom, 24.5-inch scale, with mahogany body & neck and ebony fretboard). I've got a Whole Lotta Humbucker in the bridge. On this particular guitar, the highs are quite bright. Also, I'd like to get harmonics more easily. I'd...

I have a great superstrat guitar with a 59 bridge and two STL-S1s in the neck and middle. It’s a very good combination in this guitar. I would like the bridge humbucker to have a little more “oomph” and a little less high end. And I only made a little. I do not want and incredibly...

That's it, I'd like to purchase a vintage rails neck, new style, black. PM Me. Would like it in very good condition or better.

Hi everyone, Looking to get a set of Duncan pickups for an HSS strat, the Dimarzios of which I am not bonding with. I've yet to choose the bridge humbucker, but the middle and necks should be STK-S4s or STL-S7s. Four Questions: Q1: To get the bridge humbucker and middle to quack better, I...

Hi guys, I have a duckbucker that I want to run in the middle position of an HSS strat with a full size humbucker. The guitar has a 5-way import switch. When I select position 2, to get a better quack, I would like the bridge to be in parallel. If I split it with the duckbucker, there will be...
