Re: To Do Or Not To Do
I think perhaps Danny meant series wiring? I think the Baja has that option already. My Mustang’s had the wiring fiddled so it has series instead of the out of phase sound. It’s pretty cool — not something I’ve had before — but not quite the same as a grunty bridge pickup.

Re: To Do Or Not To Do
It’s not really…
It’s a standard Tele bridge construction with a hotter output. He describes it as “getting into p-90 territory” which is not really the same thing.
You should definitely try the Dirty Harry first.
I really wouldn’t do anything irreversible to the Korinacaster. I reckon you’ll regret it. That guitar has been your main squeeze for as long as I can remember.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: To Do Or Not To Do
Further to that sentiment but on a bit of a tangent... Teles and LPJs have never been a "high end" instrument" (as much as people might like to pretend they are) so it's not hard to buy or build one fairly cheaply. Am I right?Slowy wrote: ↑Sat Sep 11, 2021 10:18 amThanks Ben.bender wrote: ↑Sat Sep 11, 2021 10:15 amIt’s not really…

If the K'caster is already something of a great fit fit, why fuck with it? Just get another guitar that does that particular thing you want. It's the ultimate undoable action.

Right; so it's official then....I'm an idiot.

I'm no fool. The Korinacaster will not be touched, Upon your collective head be it.

It takes a lot of experimenting and prototypes to get a pickup right. That’s okay if there’s a good market for it, I’m happy to put the time in. But when you get to the more unusual ones ... I doubt you’ll want to pay for the 10 pickups or more it takes to get it right.
Right now I’m spending my time on a new FilterTron that I’m hoping is only a month or so away.
Sorry Dude.
