    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    Raaaunchy upper-mid oriented rock vibes for sure. 500k pots, the proper caps, and no cover is the way to go, though they are fun on a tele build with lower value pots (still no cover, and adjusted polepieces). I also heard people love an AlNiCo 8 in the 498T!

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    Funny, I had an Ibanez RG652MPB. Was an absolute monster of a guitar. I just could not resonate with it for whatever reason which is werid, because until this day, that is probably my favorite Ibanez neck carve that I have felt. Really killer beauty that just didn't connect.

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    The Legacy set looks interesting - the reviews show a lot of love for them for sure. I thought they would have a bit too much snap/chirp for me, but they sound really good in the demo. Let us know how they are if/when you install them. I have a set of illuminators in my 7 string. They...

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    I would trust your tone zone/crunch lab experiences over mine, it's been years since I have had that set. Very nice list here man.

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    Man that helix with added compression is not so hot in the first video but the pickups are still trying to shine through.... Lol In an LP, I'd say these are a no brainer. $75 before the 25% discount. If it isn't up on their site banner, hmu and I have a code good til the 4th.

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    I honestly don't think many could argue against the neck pickup in any regard whatsoever. I feel the same about the bridge, but could understand someone wanting something really high octane or something like that. Here is a solid neck pickup demo. Yeah, it sounds that vocal in person as well:

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    It's funny because they do not seem like they have a super high output, so I did not expect them to handle what I have been throwing at them, which is intense metal riffs and screaming harmonics. That being said, they DO have good output. I guess the resistance measurements of pickups can be a...

    Rig Talk Pickup Selector

    Dude, these Blues Heritage Humbuckers are honestly the best things I've heard in my LP... Or almost any neck and bridge for that matter. Really killing it. They have a 25% off sale and I think I am going to snag one for a tele project. I had the LiquiFire in my old JP and did not like it. It...

    Fender Stratocaster (SSS) Wiring Help / Troubleshooting

    A blender or no load is not going to work in a volume position for you, only tone unless you are wanting to blend pickups, which you are not. I would guess you missed a jumper wire, which is why the tone does not also work on middle pickup. The extra grounding going to the body is normal on a...

    Pickup goofin - Single coil w Humbucker - 498T Likes lower value pots?

    Hey all, Have a Tele I am swapping picups and trying different wiring configurations in. I previously had this guitar running this no name hot ceramic neck pickup with a Gibson 498T uncovered. Vol/Vol setup with no tone. Extremely 'in your face'. A bit much overall. I had the neck pickup wired...

    I'll be hitting up the store soon. I'll see if they have tanner shades available.

    NPD! Griffin Analog Treble Booster

    Hello all! Got a chance to rip on the Treble Booster. This pedal definitely has its own flavor and voice that it adds to your guitar, not just boosted upper frequencies or something like that. The 3 mode toggle switch is really cool and offers very different modes to play with. Each mode...

    Vox AC10 DIY or not?

    I would highly recommend that you do NOT get your amp off of marketplace, unless you want random issues/repairs to work on. Honestly, after having a buddy go amp shopping lately and having issues with several units, Guitar Center has really paid off with their pretty much no questions asked...

    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.

    What pick ups would you put in a Gibson Explorer ?

    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.

    What pick ups would you put in a Gibson Explorer ?

    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...

    What pick ups would you put in a Gibson Explorer ?

    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.
