ok i still havent gotten my new set up yet (DDn split/Dimebucker) but i noticed that they both use ceramic magnets and im wondering, should i still make different settings on my amp for when i use each individual pickup or will it sound fine either way?.. like the same distorted sound for each pickup, and the same clean sound for each pickup.

Vent....WD parts don't fit!!
My WD pickup rings are just a tad bigger/wider than the stock Gibson pickup rings. Now my store has to order them from Gibson and they said they don't know how long it will take, knowing Gibson. Just frustrating is all and had to vent. I was changing them to cream from black on my tobacco burst LP, so now I'll have to leave the black one's on for now.

My humbucker has hum when put to a mini switch. Can you help?
I got my humbucker wired to a mnin switch for series/split/parallel. I get all three just fine the problem is. I get hum in some positions of the guitar, I mean straight up, on my knee, up side down, etc. Its really wierd. When I have it on me, just like everyone has it on. I get hum, but when I have it pointing straight up, the neck. No hum at all. I've changed the angle on the guitar and I get hum on some and none on others. I really don't know whats the problem so I opend it up and checked and double checked. I shielded everything that had to do with the humbucker with shrinking tubing and it reduced the hum just a little. But I still get it. I don't know if its that its too close to the pot or to the switch. I do have it grounded and everything around it its grounded to. But I still get that stupid hum. When I play it in clean I get some but its nothing, when I have it in dirty its like I just want to throw the guitar at the amp. Its like this. The humbucker to the on/on/on for the breaking part. Then to the on/on for the positioning. From there to the vol pot and to the 5 way switch. Can anyone help me.

A variation of an owerwound C5
As many i like basses on the C5 but think that it could have more mids with being overwound between 15 to 16 k .
The only thing is i afraid that the already big basses of the C5 could be mushy and the resonnace peak could fall to low and the pickup would then loose good definition for clarity and fast pick attack .

Genuine Floyd Rose
I have a genuine Floyd Rose I bought through Carvin about 5 years ago. I have never installed it and I have all the original mounting posts and bushings with a variety of lock nuts. I was looking for a Strat replacement neck in return.
what color is it? and how much would you like to sell it straight out for?

Pickup booster mini?
Hi, I've been interested in the seymour duncan pickup booster pedal. It's exactly what I want to do to my sound. While shopping around, I noticed someone on ebay selling a selling a seymour duncan pickup booster but in extremely small form, made for installing into the guitar. This would be perfect for me, but I've never heard of this and have searched around on and didn't see it. Is this a real seymour duncan pickup booster in mini form or a fake? Is it as good as the regular pedal? Why does it have a jack included with it? Thanks for the help, this is the auction:

Need some info.
Alright, I have a washburn x50Bamp;R with mohogany body and it is string through body with a push pull coil splitter. what i am looking for is a pickup with alot of chunk and harmonics. I have read a ton of reviews but am really confused. I've think I have narrowed to the JB, Distortion, or Custom. and know I want a 59 in the neck. What pickup would sound good for what i want it for which is metal pretty much exclusively but I would like some versatility. I love lots of low/mid chunk and pinch harmonics just to let you know.

help with tele project
over the next few months i am going to build a tele with a body and neck from warmoth. I have only had one tele before it had a maple fretboard and have played a few with rose wood. so far I have just about got everything picked out except for the woods to use. I am thinking ash for the body. maple neck with an ebony fretboard just to be alittle different. I'm either putting some duncan antiq's pickups or fender texas specials in it. and was wondering if this would be a good combination or not. Any info or suggestions will help out alot.

need strategies for dealing with extension cabs
my brother wants to buy a new fender twin amp that has two 8-ohm speakers in it, wired in parallel, for a total load of 4 ohms ... he expects that he will want to use an extension cabinet with it ... the amp has an external speaker output that is wired in parallel with the main speaker output ... the manual indicates that the amp wants to see a total of 4 ohms and states that the only way to use both outputs at the same time is to use two external cabinets, each at 8 ohms ... this seems to say that you wont be using the two speakers in the amp at all, which seems like a tremendous waste ...

I need some Strat pups: I have hummys
I have a black invader bridge, a trem spaced zebra (the screw bobbin in cream, slug is black) custom custom, a zebra jb, standard spaced. I may also still ahve a standard black 59 neck, but I may have sold it... I need some good. I would like some Alnico II pro single coils, preferable an entire set with a RW/RP middle pup. But if you have any SD strat pickups, tell me, I'll consider it. I also could use a pickguard.

1970's Epiphone Coronet/Olympic/Crestwood
Whatever this thing is, I just got it yesterday. Made In Japan, all maple.. the body.. neck.. and fretboard. Lovely little guitar! It's a natural relic.. with rusted/faded gold hardware.. missing finish chips.. ect.. Superbly comfortable.. and the humbuckers sound decent, surprisingly! Very clean and articulate tone.. probably from all the maple. The neck is a little wobbly.. I'll have to work not to yank back on it.. as it gives a tremolo effect.. but the original covered cheap-o tuners are very reliable so far.. and that with massive bending of strings and pulling on the neck occasionally.

where does single-coil tone come from?
Is the clarity, touch sensitivity, and other single coil characteristics SOLELY a function of the lower output of the pickup or do the extra magnets in buckers also have a tonal effect (other than increasing the output)?

Is there really a good reason to slant a pickup?
Like in Strats and Teles?
