And my Kramer is about to become a two pickup guitar instead, so I'll snag the two old APS-1's neck and middle out of it, and now I just got hold of an APS-2 bridge single, but the last time I tried one...hmm it was along time ago and the guitar subjected to the test was not a fave of mine, anyone who has something to say about them??
I gather that it will sound very close to one of my old setups with APS-1's all over the line, that I rather liked, guess it will loose alittle of that airy topend now that it is a flat staggered one.
Hehe well I guess my HW-1 strat will get a pickup replacement after all
Eventhough I said I did not really want to..lol

It's great at the bridge. I have something very similar to it in my own strat. It's part of a set that came out of an Ernie Ball Albert Lee guitar and is basically an APS-2 with a steel bar on the underside. I'm sure it adds some lows, but it still balances out very well with the APS-2's in the neck and mid.

I've got an APS2 in the bridge of my strat too, I really like the focus that the is has and the smooth A2 sound. I've got it as close to the strings as possible and it sounds better than any other strat single I've heard.

It's only wound to about 7k, not much more than a standard APS-2, and it has flat, smaller than normal poles. it still sounds great and has enough beef and punch to cop a good classic rock tone and even some thick quot;shreddyquot; leads when pushing enough gain from your amp.

If you think your APS-2 is too skinny, put a steel plate under it (I used silicone gasket maker to attach a plate onto my Fender CS 62 bridge unit). it should beef it up a bit and give you more growl than normal.

Ah I have little troubles with singlecoils as it is, but the idea sound funny, so I'll give it a try, maybe use some brass instead

CC?
It is singlecoils Mr Gers, that we are talking about here

Heh wuss

Uuuh does it make coffee too?
