Somethings outta place in the last pic  :icon_scratch:

 

[rapfohl09]

Man, what a beautiful collection.

From each picture my favorites are:

The blue flamed, the fireburst quilt, the purpleheart top, and nothing really strikes me in the last one  :laughing7:

Where are the crimson guitars?

ooh... nah, not my thing. I have tried it, though. I always play in E so there's no need to go low.

The non-maple topped lesters!

I really am intrigued by the one on the far right.

Do tell of the pickup config. I like the idea of a P-90-ish middle pickup.  What's the story behind this guitar?

 

[Orpheo]

the one on the right here's got the same config by the way.

these 2 are the best of the best imho. they are the can-all do-all guitars in terms of what I could think off, what nature could make, and what warmoth would offer for me.

it's a pearly gates/custom hybrid in the bridge and a jazz/59 hybrid in the neck, with for each pickup a volumepot. there's  a master coiltap and a master tone, and a pushpull to engage the middle pickup (phat cat) with a volumepot of it's own. very usable.

 

[TonyFlyingSquirrel]

Sounds really cool.

So, you can use the Phat Cat in conjunction with either the neck/bridge/both selectively?

Are you able to use the Phat Cat alone without either of the others? 

Is it hum cancelling when used with either of the other pickups when those are split?

I'd be real curious to hear some clips, see some youtubage.

phat cat with bridge, bridge+neck, neck? yes.

phat cat 100% alone? no. but that tone sucks major monkeyb@lls; a phat cat in the middle doesn't work that well. but with the neck and/or bridgevolume rolled down it is

a: much better
b: hum cancelling!

and it is humcancelling with the humbuckers split.

no youtube. You have to hear it (in real) life to hear the nuances and details.

incredible collection is incredible  :guitarplayer2:

I honestly hate middle pick-ups especially when companies like Ibanez just kind of randomly throw them on their guitars. But triple pick-up Les Pauls just make me feel warm and tingly all over.

Thanks for the input.  In what way is it un-appealling on its own?  Too bassy? Too trebly?  Too noisy?

 

[Orpheo]

well, it doesn't have the bite of a bridgepickup nor the smoothness of a neckpickup. it's just, literally, in-between, but a bad way.

 

[TonyFlyingSquirrel]

I could see that being true.

Thanks for the input.
