Has anyone had much expirence with this? I was wondering if it was possible to get them to make me a humbucker with '59 humbucker traits but when split (series/parallel) It could sound veyr p-90 sounding. could that be done?

The best thing to do is call MJ in the custom shop. The number is 805-964-9610. She will be able to give you a better idea of what they can do.

It would have to be higher in output than a '59 to get a P-90 tone when split. She can probably come up with something, but be prepared to pay quite a bit for it. Custom windings are fairly expensive.

Re: Seymour Duncan Custom Shop

thnx alot guys. would u think it's posibble to double stack a humbucker so in split it still maintains a noiseless quality?

I called them once about making me a 7 string P90. They said sure, no problem - $180 US and it's yours.

As far as I know It seems difficult, but I am not MJ!!! :smack:

Stack single coils when split loose their noiseless quality. This it is because to achieve the humbucker effect you allways need two coils winded in opposite directions and with oposite magnetic fields going thru them.

I have never tried this pickup but as a suggestion I recomend you to check the StagMag (SH-3) humbucker. This is made with two vintage strat single coils so when split you get this single coil tone. I have always found the split and parallel tone of the humbuckers very similar and thought it cound be a good idea to wiring this StagMag in series/parallel because in parallel it is still humbucking.

Good luck!!
