Lipstick tube for start with Phat Cat

[NoOnesFang13]

I ended up with a Sigma strat copy in the last week. Maple neck and board and possibly a basswood body or some other soft wood. There is zero info that I have found on these. I was thinking about what pickups I wanted to go with and thought a Phat Cat bridge with lipstick Tube strat in the mid and neck would be a cool combo. Would the phat cat be too high output to pair with the lipstick tubes? I know resistance isn't an accurate picture of output but 3.4k is pretty low compared to a phat cat at 8.5k.

Actually, Duncan uses A6 magnets in their lipstick tubes, which are actually pretty powerful. I'd say worse case scenario there would be a small mismatch in output, but it seems pretty solid.

There will be an output mismatch, but it won't be huge. Besides, if you pair the PC with lipsticks, you'll be able to back the PC away from the strings, giving it more sparkle and chime.
