Two humbuckers possibilities for an Aristides H/07

[AAC]

Hi,

I am new on this forum. I will order an Aristides H/07 in the coming months and for a guitar of this price, which I will use mostly in studio, I would like to have many more options than the two humbuckers with the five positions.

I don’t know much about pickups but recently I started to study the possible configurations of two humbuckers and find some videos on YouTube that show that it is possible to have about forty possibilities as in this video.

This ONE Guitar has EVERY WIRING HACK POSSIBLE! (well...almost...)

Before ordering my Aristides I will experiment with a Jackson with two Seymour Duncan humbuckers where I would like to have at least thirty possibilities, to test the one I prefer and then configure my Aristides with fifteen or twenty possibilities.

I have a couple of questions that I haven’t found the answer to on the Internet.
1. Does option number 9 (check the attachment) produce too much output or a muddy sound?
2. About the hum. I don’t think I’m going to want split coil alone that contain hum like (3-4-7-8). Are the possibilities with one humbucker with a split coil like configuration (21 to 32) have some hum?
3. What about possibilities 33 to 40?
4. I did nothing included the out of phase position, it's not something I like personally but what other possibilities would be interesting?

Thanks

Sorry for the quality of the attachment but I did not succeed to upload my original pdf correctly.

I have an Ibanez with a three position switch. But both of the pickups are mounted in Triple Shots.
I lack a phase switch between both pickups, and a series/parallel between both pickups.
Hmmmmm.

Thanks, you made me discover a very interesting option.

 

[beaubrummels]

Phase is useful if you can control the volume of each pickup individually. Series by itself is mud-city, but IMO becomes useful when used with out of phase.

 

[eclecticsynergy]

Over the years I've had a few guitars with complex versatile wiring and many tonal possibilities.
What I found was that I never used most of their capability.
For me it's worked better to have a handful of good useful tones.

That said, a pair of Triple Shots combined with a pair of push-pulls for phase and maybe a warm/sweet cap sounds like fun.

 

[Mincer]

Triple Shots are really the most elegant way to get the most options. But the problem with many 'do it all' schemes is that it takes several steps to get from one sound to another. Might be OK for a studio guitar, but live, it is much harder to use.
