Introducing the Gus G. FIRE Blackouts System

Re: Introducing the Gus G. FIRE Blackouts System

Yep, I agree, turning the bmp on and off would be a dream. One amazing technological breakthrough at time though.

I have a friend with a very interesting guitar: Peavey T-15. It comes with unique single coil pickups, the size of a humbucker with a single blade. He wants to beef up the guitar but hates the idea of putting in a plain jane humbucker. Solution: BMP! I am trying to sell him on this...what a perfect candidate guitar for this technology! If he actually buys it, that will be a new thread of course.

Just got these installed in a mahogany guitar maple neck rosewood fingerboard and a Floyd. Very thick sounding and fat but too much so a little muddy even with the pickup
Lowered quite a bit so the jury is still out. Hated the original blackouts as rather were to fizzy. Also when you don't play quite a bit of background buzz like regular Passives but like the preamp is amplifying the noise quite a bit. Not a grounding issue but need a noise gate with these babies.

I am a huge fan of the custom and custom 5 due to the clarity and power. An active version of these pickups would be killer. How about a linear modular preamp that does not color the the original pickup. That in itself would be killer.

I bet the jazz bridge would be a good match for the bmp
