Buckethead Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Hi, I was just wondering if It would be suitable for a guitar to have greatly varied DC between its pickups? E.G: A Standard Strat is fitted with this configuration... (Neck)6.5K Vintage Pickup (Mid)7.5K Slightly High Output Pickup (Bridge)13K Hot Rails or Equivalent Just an example to slow you what I mean.

Samba Pa Ti Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 it doesnt matter what the output is it will just sound different and unbalanced (not that it matters, a 5k mid and 15k bridge would be unbalanced but could be compensated with the distance from the strings). personally i prefer lower ratings (about 5k for each pickup) and i push any distortion/overdrive/warmth through the amp with either onboard effects or overdrive pedels, then i can have a nice clean tone with nothing added.
