Re: NGD. Warmoth goodness
Yeah, I gotta get out of the 20th century and learn how to post a vid. Without that option though, I can tell you it rings like a piano and snaps like a bra strap. Very tonally balanced, acoustically loud. It's a little in the prs zone, I think due to the combo of an ash body w a dark neck. Not quite bright enough to sound fendery, doesn't growl like a Gibson. Well see what the maple neck does.

Stunt neck has been duct taped on. Now it sounds very tele like. Still sustains all day, a little brighter, not sure which I like better though. woe is me, such a dilemma...

Re: NGD. Warmoth goodness
Since it is a stack I am surprised it sounds good parallel; I have done parallel wiring on DiMarzio HS-3s and it sounds terrible. However it seems as if this pup is much higher output than the HS-3's super low output design.
I dig the Les Paul body with a Telecaster bridge look; why no neck pickup though?
Once again thanks for sharing and welcome to the forum.

Re: NGD. Warmoth goodness
I was surprised by the parallel sound too. Found it on accident when I had this in a tele. For fun I wired it up to a 5 way super switch and though I was listening to the split sound. Turned the instructions over and realized it was the parallel sound I was liking. I was looking for a neck pup to match it and found that nobody else had a good match. A couple forum members had said its really meant to be an esquire pup. It doesn't play well w others. That gave me the idea to make this an esquire, or as Paul crook calls it, a lesquire... Honestly, I rarely use neck pos in any of my guitars, so this is right in my comfort zone.
