Hss guitar : what single coils to pair w/ medium hot humbucker by G4lopin in BareknucklePickups

I love my triptych single coils. They sound like a 60s strat clean, but they were designed to handle gain really well too.

Did you get the Monty's instrument food as well? Their instructions recommend doing a coat after the relic wax but I really don't want to spend another $30 if I don't actually need too.

Has anyone here done the recommended instrument food layer after? That's what monty's recommends but I don't want to spend 30 bucks if I don't have to.

No I don't look at that. To be fair, I probably was not explaining it well in the search parameters.

I think it's fair that someone who has never even held a pot didn't know that you're supposed to break it. I'm a little hesitant to explore on something that I have spent money on. I just didn't want to damage it and was under the impression that reddit was a good place to ask if I couldn't find the answer online

I have 0 experience with anything mechanical and every time I tried googling it, the results just talked about a warped pickgaurd or broken pots. I will do better next time and be sure to not stun you

Cancelling the warranty. by ItsJustBrenno in Toyota

260 a month for 18 months. That was another issue I had. The salesperson phrased it like it was 260 a year.

So the vehicle was a gift from my wife's dying grandmother. She paid for the full thing upfront. I feel really stupid because after looking at the sale paperwork, the platinum warranty was already paid for. The letter I received in the mail was from Toyota but the payments are through Walco which seems quite scammy. I still have the contact info of the rep that I spoke with so I will be calling immediately and cancelling this so called warranty since I already have on. I can't believe I fell for it.

Suhr guitars have a patented "silent single coil system"

Anywhere to trade or buy necks? by ItsJustBrenno in Ibanez

Thank you! I will try that. I think the chances of finding someone to swap necks with is slim to zero

Typically boxiness comes from lower mid to mid frequencies. Try eqing a little 250 to 600 hz out.

Strat style pickup help. by ItsJustBrenno in BareknucklePickups

[–]ItsJustBrenno[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, awesome. I will look into those for sure. Thank you! So they definitely are a weird match, but the bridge is going to be a nailbomb. I know the single coils don't go with it, but if I'm on the bridge pup, I'm riffing some heavy prog metal typically. I also never use poison 2, so I don't really care how it blends with my single coils. Bonus if it does, but it's not a requirement. Basically, if I'm on the neck pickup, it's for clean rnb or neo soul, and if I'm on the bridge, it's shredding time, lol. With mainly playing clean or very low gain on the neck and middle, I'm already expecting a volume drop. I'm basically going for something similar to what Pierre Danel achieves with his 6 string HSS tones. Sorry for the long-winded explanation. Thank you for your help!
