Members tarunark Posted August 28, 2007 Members Share Posted August 28, 2007 I know it sounds dumb but I only have a sss strat to measure. I was planning on doing something prs 513-esque with me being able to choose which coils to activate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators isaac42 Posted August 29, 2007 Moderators Share Posted August 29, 2007 That probably depends on which humbucker and which single coil you're talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guitzilla Posted August 29, 2007 Members Share Posted August 29, 2007 To do the multi single coil in a humbucker size route, you probalby need to use pickups like EMGs...like these... http://www.emginc.com/displayproducts.asp?section=Guitar&categoryid=7 a normal pickup wouldn't be able to fit because of the base plate.. like these... http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electronics,_pickups/Pickups:_Guitar,_electric/1/Golden_Age_Pickups.html hope that this helps.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Procreatur Posted August 31, 2007 Members Share Posted August 31, 2007 you would need reverse wound pickups to place at the bridge and the neck. you could mount the two single coils with the widest part of the base plates facing away from each other as well. getting the right pickups to reduce hum in the right positions would be a pain in the ass.

Members el_tonto Posted August 31, 2007 Members Share Posted August 31, 2007 being able to choose which coils to activate. Many after-market humbuckers have outputs for both coils individually available anyway, so you won't need two singles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thrill74 Posted August 31, 2007 Members Share Posted August 31, 2007 Do some cool 513 set up using a couple of custom Lace Dually sets!http://www.lacemusic.com/electric_pickups/dually_series/dually_specs.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Will Chen Posted August 31, 2007 Members Share Posted August 31, 2007 Rio Grande makes a pickup, forget the model, which is 2 full size single coils wired as a humbucker. I've got one which I had in the bridge of a tele style project and it sounds great split. If you're into metal tones it's probably not the best choice as the humbucker sound has a snappier response than most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
