Been thinking of swapping the pups on the Godin for a while. They sound good, but I already largely have that tone in another guitar.
Currently it has 2 HBs low/medium output. Wired as:
pos 1 - neck HB
pos 2 - neck coil split
pos 3 - neck and bridge HB
pos 4 - bridge coil split
pos 5 - bridge HB
I can blend in a piezo to any on these. Largely I am in position 1, 3, or 5.
2 and 4 are really usable, but if I am going for those tones, I can bring my strat,
Was originally thinking of TV Jones Classic/Classic+s. You can split a Classic+, but Tom noted that a Classic split is not that great. And there are no Classic+ neck pups.
So off to a new tangent for a different sound.
Thinking a TV Jones Classic+ in the bridge, and a Novack WR - HB sized pup in the neck.
Just heard back from Curtis and yes the WR can be split.
My thoughts are to wire:
pos 1 - WR
pos 2 - WR split
pos 3 - half WR half Classic +
pos 4 Classic+ split
pos 5 Classic +
The typical HB, SC and P90 tones I already have handled for the most part with:
Gibby LP with Timbuckers
Strat with Fralin Blues SCs
Doozy with a P90ish in the neck and a HB in the bridge (and an awesome middle position setup)
soon to be creation - with 2 SD P-Rails (so HB series, HB Parallel, SC and P90 in each) and a piezo to boot
soon to be creation - Tele bridge wound way hot with a coil tap to normal - it may get a neck pup
What say you? part Gretsch / part WR Fender sounds, all in a semi-hollow body with a piezo to boot?
