I just put them in a G&L ASAT and when I have the 3 way toggle in the middle position it's all 59 with the volume(s) all the way. I put in two volumes and got rid of a tone. Pots are wired for independent operation. Now if I roll back the neck a bit there is a very (very) small window were they seem to both be playing/blending, little more roll back and now it's all JB. Is this normal? There are a ton of people with this combination, are people getting three distinct tones, Neck, Middle, Bridge? I am guessing that the resistance differences is what causes this because it seems that if I split the JB and keep the 59 bucking there is a larger window of blending. I am thinking that a set of 59's probably blends better but I am new at this so I could be completely off base.
I was thinking on either getting a 59b if that was the case and/or rewiring the 59n/JB back to 1 volume 1 tone both push pull having one split and the other phase and just accepting middle position isn't happening. Right now it is 2 volume and each bucker is split independently. Both pots are audio taper if that makes a difference, I was going to get a linear volume for the rewire. Was also thinking about putting a alnico 4 in the 59n and a alnico 2 in the JB. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!
