Rails Hybrid?

[TVFV]

I was wondering if it was possible to make a hybrid out of two rails? For example, taking one coil from the Cool Rails neck and Hot Rails neck and combining them?

It would be a precision job for sure, the covers don't come off without some serious work. It would be easier to get it done at the Custom Shop.

Definitely not something I would do at home.

Re: Rails Hybrid?

You could put a hot rails and a cool rails side by side and split them, putting the split coils in series.

I see even more potential if you do something like a Cruiser Bridge and a Hot Rails Neck. A Cruiser/Satch Track could be even crazier since both are already hybrids themselves.

Re: Rails Hybrid?

you might be able to do it with one of the older ones, without the cover. I don't know if I'd be brave enough not to ruin 2 pickups trying to get covers off of the modern ones. The question becomes, what are you trying to do with this?

I know the OP is talking strat sized. Still, I thought immediately of the Fuglybucker.

There entire rail humbucker lineup are all hybrids?

Re: Rails Hybrid?

With the exception of the Pro Track and Super Distortion S, yes.

...at least these are the only ones that are not listed as having the 4,501,185 patent.
