  1. Wicked! Thanks for all the tips. Just gotta make this work now
  2. Well, Actually I didn't quite know what I meant, but it's clearer now, it's definitely parallel... Gotta read some electronics for dummies or somesuch guide though first I think By the way, can anybody tell me if there's like a chart that tells you what kind of capacitor gives what kind of sound or is that just something you figure out after installing the varitone?
  3. Wow, that is pretty cool! I thought the only thing I could do was put them in series, but one on each pickup or in parallel, now that is nice. So, the original Gibson one on my Blues Hawk affects bot pickups, so I'd have to get it rewired to separate them out and put one varitone on each pickup, right? My aim is to increase the number of tonal variations I can get out of the guitar though, so one on each pickup wasn't what I had in mind, but more like both on both pickups so I can add both effects on both pickups in any position of the selector. Now, if I have two varitones in series, I can put one on bypass and just get the effect of the original varitone. I think I need to have a chat with bigDguitars to find out exactly what to do, and also with a luthier to see if I could even pay for the mod...
  4. Hi, I recently found out that it is possible to buy hand-made varitones for not too much money via ebay and other websites. This got me to thinking about installing one on my Gibson Blues Hawk. Now, the Gibson Blues Hawk already has a varitone installed originally, so I was wondering if anybody could tell me (or hasard a guess) at what would happend if I installed a second one? Could I add the effects? Would it just ruin the sound? I don't want to install it and then find out it doesn't work, so any guesses you can give me are welcome.
