    What is this pickup? DiMarzio VHW91BKL

    That looks like the ones on my dimarzio/ibz buckers

    Matching a neck humbucker for the Tone Zone

    The bridge is the same. Its such a different spec. Low output, fairly classic eq, and ceramic mags.

    Matching a neck humbucker for the Tone Zone

    Wow, someone else who has used the dark matter 2s! Did you just try the neck? Or both? What did you think of it/them? Did you try it split?

    Stacking a ceramic and alnico magnet in a Custom?

    The gibson iommi pickups had ceramic helper mags flanking an a2. I always wanted a set, but the price kept me away.

    What amp are you playing today?

    A loaded answer. I run my gx100, with about 10 or 12 amps thru my gen 3 katana artist combo. Lately I've been playing on my Marshall presets.

    I'd like to hear your opinion on the EMG81TW mounting orientation.

    Thanks. I got my signals (pun intended) crossed. I was thinking about the prs inner/outer, series/parallel flip.

    I'd like to hear your opinion on the EMG81TW mounting orientation.

    The tws have 3 coils. 2 standard layout humbucker and a stacked under one side. Rotating the bridge pickup might cause phasing issues.

    Let's play a " What If " game with Guitar Models

    Id say either ibanez az or esp eclipse. Strat shapes are what I started on The eclipse is a new development. The AZ gets me all the right configurations and great necks The eclipses......man I love the necks on these, the short scale, the belly cut on a LP shape, etc. I own 3 of these...

    Full Shred Pole Piece & Magnet Swap

    Did you try the all filisters with a5? My all filister set splits very well and sounds really cool split to inner coils. Sorta halfway between a strats 2 and 4 positions. Less bloated than 2 and less lucky than 4. I'd try a5 with all filisters before the a8 and ceramic. There is also...

    Full Shred Pole Piece & Magnet Swap

    I can attest to this. Lol. The attack being what it is, I can go down to 1 or 2 (before the mid hump thing happens) and still get clarity.

    Full Shred Pole Piece & Magnet Swap

    Try the filisters first. Trust me. They're cheap and easy to swap. I HATE the FS attack with the hex poles. It pushes towards a response that seems thin for some reason. I choose the filisters every time Filisters lessen the attack, and I swear that the longer poles increase power a bit...

    Full Shred Pole Piece & Magnet Swap

    I just did a pickup switcheroo between my rg520qs and my ec256. The full shreds are now back in the rg, and I shoulda left well enough alone. They Mesh so well with the tonality of the guitar. Oh, and I tried the original hex poles again in both pickups and instantly hated them, still. The...

    5 way HH Series/parallel mini toggle

    Well, then the best of luck to you! Lol :cool: I think I could land a plane with that much firepower! J/k. If I can't do it on a super switch alone or maybe with 1 mini switch (itd have to be a set it and forget it/minimal use thing for me), then i dont really need it. If the sound is...
