psw Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 I'm not sure what you mean here. Are we talking the commercial units or the DIY sustainer that I developed within the monster thread... If you make a DIY driver/pickup...you can do what you like with the pickup. Are you thinking of coil tap as in using only one coil of a humbucker...you might have to make it a bit more clear...also would get more varied responses on the actual thread, no need to try and read it...just tag along... pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffster Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Sorry about the confusion. What I meant was, could I coil tap a commercial sustainer, such as a Fernandez FSK 101. And I was wondering if I could wire it so that a humbucker could become a single coil if I chose to lift up on the tone pot. I am not looking to install one. I'm just curious.

riffster Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 My bad. a sustainer pickup (commercial one) is esentially a single coil pickup and cannot be coil tapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
