I've had the C-5/'59 set in my Epi LP for about 5 months and have realized it's just not exactly what I'm looking for. Each pickup has it's good qualities but lacks others that I want. I find the C-5 to have some harsh, spikey highs. The '59 is a little bassy for me. So basically I would like you all to recommend me some pups that will hopefully fill my needs. I play hard rock/metal but still require some good cleans.
In the bridge I'm looking for a thick pickup for high gain rhythm playing. Something that will stay tight and articulate. I rarely use the bridge position for cleans or solo's so that's not a major problem here.

Sh6
Does the sh6 sound like the sh4 if i replace the ceramic of the sh6 with alnico5 like in sh4? There is a 0.2k difference in the d,c resitance does it matter?

Dunc In SG
I'm putting the Distortion pup in the bridge position of my SG, with 2 vols and 2 tones. I have an extra 250K push/pull pot and thought it might be cool to split it. Can I do that with the Distortion pup or is it better to go with the 500K pot? And if it is possible, is there a wiring diagram for it on this site that I'm missing?

Question About Push/Pull Splitting
This will sound like a dumb question but here goes! I'm going to wire up my JB bridge, and a Jazz neck for coil split via push/pull pots. Should I use the volume, or tone knobs for the push/pull split? Or does it even matter?

New Cab: Bogner 2X12 !!!!!
These suckers are like impossible to find. The last time my local shop got one it was gone within 30 minutes!! So I called today and they got one late yesterday. I immediately went and bought it a few minutes ago. First impressions is that it is MUCH easier to move around compared to the Boogie Recto 2X12 I demo'd then returned to GC. I fits nicely in my trunk and while the Boogie took up my back seat (would not fit in the trunk). With the casters it is easy to move around- my back still hurts from hauling around the Boogie. As far as looks, the Bogner looks it would fit right right in with a country band and the Boogie looked pretty mean. Mine has the tan basket weave front. Anyway, can't wait to get home and fire her up with my VHT!!!!!!!!! !!!!! I am hoping this is the end all of 2X12 cabs and all evidence suggests that it is!!!

tripple fat strat
anyone else think this will sound cool, a fender strat cut to hold 3 humbuckers, with a tb-11 in the bridge, an emg 81 in the middle, and a alnico pro 2 in the neck with the split option, 3 volume pots, (one for each pup) and a 3 way selector (similar to the 3 humbucker sg) the emg will be wound in and out through the volume knob,the middle setting on the 3 way will be all 3 pups or whatever is turned up on the volume! the other two will be bridge and middle, and neck and middle, so the middle setting on the 3 way switch could have neck and bridge or all 3 or whatever! lol you think i should do it? i have been debating it for a while, i've got the strat and everything customised, just need the pups, maybe an active and two passives is not such a good idea? let me know what you think, cheers!

would you drop your amp down a flight of stairs?
I did...it was not on purpose, but I have to tell you guys...it was my 69 Twin Reverb, which BTW has been dropped once before I got it...so hard in fact it broke the cab which is why I got it so cheep, after I bought it I had to rebuild the whole thing, but on to tonight...long story short, I dropped it and it rolled all the way down a full flight of metal stairs!!! I picked it up, brought it in, put the tubes back and the played throught it...it's a little more beat up now, but it still works like a Champ (no pun intended!!!). I must say not only do Fender amps sound amazing but their pretty well built too!!!

Essential songbooks
I find my Bob Dylan, The Beatles, and Jimi Hendrix songbooks have proven themselves invaluable on a couple occasions. Any other song books you would deem essential?
