Hey, I just got a Charvel Fusion Special and I'm wondering what pickups to put in. The woods for fretboard, neck and body are rosewood, maple and alder I believe. The pickup configuration is pretty bizzare-two slanted single coils touching at the bridge position and one normal in the neck position. I'm looking for thrash metal tone similar to Testament, Vio-lence, Nuclear Assault but I'm trying to stay away from a flat-over compressed sound.

Help on new purchase
I made the mistake of going to Guitar Center to purchase replacment pickups for my Carvin strat. I asked for a 59 in the neck and a JB in the bridge. One of the employees said he could do the install. He said he could use the coil splitters that were already on my guitar. My problems are this, the tech installed a bridge version of the 59 pickup in the neck and he could not get the coil splitters to work on either pickup. I was also curious if all pickups say on them as the 59 pickup does not have any text on it but he JB does. I want Guitar Center to replace the 59 in the neck with the right pickup and to fix the coil splitter. Any thoughts.
Thanks,

Help My Memory About 59N Magnets?
My 59N has the original A5 magnet in place....If I changed the A5 to A2 or A3,would it get rid of the woofiness in the lows,or would it make things worse?

Hamer Artist
Hi - I have a gorgeous Hamer Artist Archtop - one of the first years they made it. Plays like a dream, however the tones (while excellent) are not exactly what I'm looking for, and I was hoping you folks could make some recommendations. I use the bridge pickup almost 100% of the time.

Mini-Humbuckers vs. Humbuckers
Hey,
Other than the obvious fact that the Mini-Humbucker is smaller, what are the differences in sound? Closer to like a P-90? I have seen a Les Paul with a couple of Mini-Humbuckers in the Relient K...Be my escape video.

O.k. I went into the local guitar shop to look around during lunch, they had just unpacked an Ibanez 321 (I believe that's the model) fixed bridge mahagony body with bound rosewood fingerboard. Made in Indonesia ??

Music Gear: Utilitarian vs. Inspiration
A recent thread got me thinking (uh oh!).
It seems like some folks think of gear as tools (I used a hammer analogy in the other thread) to get a job done. As long as their rig sounds good enough, plays well enough, and is reliable, they're not going to nitpick the small stuff. There are a lot of professional musicians out there playing off-the-shelf guitars with stock non-vintage Marshall or Fender amps and non-true-bypass FX that can be found at your local Guitarget.

Something other than a Custom?
I'm looking for suggestions for pickups other than a custom for the bridge position. I've tried JBs and don't like them. They seem to boomy or bassy or something. Not enough definition. I actually love the custom but just wanted to see what other might reccomend. It's going in a mahogany body with maple top American BC Rich Mockingbird. Anything? Anyone?
