Triple ceramic mags vs single large and regular ceramic mags?

Re: Triple ceramic mags vs single large and regular ceramic mags?

Dark matter is correct, you have to desolder and reroute the leads to put the triple mags in a custom or something else unless it was originally a single wire pickup, the sides are usually open on those.

Right now I have my 500T with the spacer mags pulled. It's kinda nasal in the mids, but I'm not done messing with it yet.

Kinda, I wouldn't call it loose, more less stiff. it's also brighter.

Honestly, I didn't really like the triple mag DD or invader that much, I like them both with one big ceramic or an A8 better.

I am guessing it takes the lows down a hair also?

A little, but the main thing is that it's not so stiff and you gain some dynamics. It's kinda like going from a formica drum pad to an actual drum.

Stuff it... I'm gonna get my mate, Charles Cilia (Cilia Guitars) to put in the extra mags, and I will also by a new regulare DD to keep stored, plus get this custom shop DD hybrid from MJ, so I will make a you tube clip comaring them all and send it to you. BTW, I didnt like the diablo that much....:eek2:

BTW... I know I had a bad experiance with the Painkiller in the past... I never played the thing CRANKED directly into my TSL Marshall, do you reckon its worth buying another? Maybe I can ask Tim to wind one not 15Kohm, but 16Kohm like a DD.... opinion???
 
Re: Triple ceramic mags vs single large and regular ceramic mags?

what did you not like about the pain killer?

Originally it was that it has this hollow low mids, like a very stringy effect, gretchish... but a couple of youtube clips make the thing the very sound I'm kind of looking for. It also doesn't slam the front end of the Marshall like the SH6 DD does... so.... bit lost
 
Re: Triple ceramic mags vs single large and regular ceramic mags?

I don't know the Painkiller man, I thought it was pretty much a DD with the triple mags/Dirty Fingers thing. I def wouldn't think it would be hollow or gretsch-ish, unless maybe it was wired parallel.

I know the PK is one of the more popular Bareknuckles, I hate to tell you, but I think you might have had it wired wrong. They use a different color code from Duncan or DMZ, red is hot, black is ground, and white/green go together.

You could be right, it wasn'T new, bought it on ebay, so maybe i should get one direct from bkp
