    What pick ups would you put in a Gibson Explorer ?

    I have some of the Vitamin T caps by MojoTone in the .015 value that sound pretty damn great. If you end up wanting to try em out, PM me. I also have them in the .0047 value for the Eldred mod or whatever but don't really use that mod personally.

    Nice! Hey, I am really, really loving the set of Blues heritage pickups I have from Planet Tone. I play drop tuned, heavy stuff, and my LP is just absolutely ripping with them. I see there is a bridge pickup on Reverb right now for $60. May be worth giving a shot.

    Yep, I go 50s wiring atw. I don't really enjoy split or tapped tones for the most part either so I have done away with that as well. The simpler, the better for the most part. The reason I ask is that I found I really enjoy neck humbucking pickups with a .015 value and I have found I dig...

    Another thought - have you messed with the wiring config or the pots/caps to see if you can shape the current set to closer match what you are seeking? Just a thought.

    Do it! You can get the button in any color. The Tesi legit feels great, like a real arcade button.

    I have a set of bare knuckle Silos in a guitar. Definitely very HD sounding and great sounding pickups, but I feel the urge to swap them out. For $500, I should not feel that urge lol I have only heard a couple of Bare knuckle sets that seem to sound good to me, the rest have a certain EQd...

    NPUD! Planet Tone Blues Heritage set for my Les Paul

    Just get a mini toggle switch, you could do the same thing by flipping it back and forth or leaving it on/off if you want it to not be momentary like that.

    I do guitars and some pedal stuff. Yeah, yours is even smaller diameter! 😂 What it probably is that I bought a roll previously that was quite a thick diameter and got used to it. I'm sure once I fully adjust, this diameter will be fine.

    Pardon the dust, I've been working on this guitar quite a bit of late.

    I also use the Tesi switches. Super nice and easy as can be to connect. It just needs to hit ground and hot, as mentioned above.

    .031" It is really nice to work with. I don't mind feeding it in. It is just a touch too flimsy for my handling though so a bit thicker for sure next time.

    I went with the diameter solder everyone recommends and I wish it were just a hair thicker. I'll remember that next order!
