Maybe if he drops half the price...

Hello. I'm thinking about replacing stock single coil Slammer pickup in neck position of my USA Centaura with a rail humbucker. I like Slammer in the bridge though. What will be a good option to pair them?

So it is basically a low-pass filter?

Hello. I have a stock USA Centaura with Slammer pickups made in 1990. I'd like to know, what does the tiny switch supposed to do? It is definitely not bridge humbucker coil split. The change in sound is very subtle and not in all selector positions. Attaching a picture

I don't know, if there are any workshops in USA, which do that. But basically they remove soft metal (i believe it is zinc alloy) from downside of base plate, where there are intonation holes and put in a patch from hard metal (stainless steel probably). Not all metal is removed, they leave like 1 mm of old metal on top of the base plate.

I believe, Gotoh 1996t has different studs, so it should not be used as a replacement for Schaller bridge. Best is to put in new Schaller. Also there is an option to fix stripped base plate holes, like in the attached picture.
