couple of Pickup questions/suggestions


Citrus

Question

Semi - hollow guitar tune-o-matic bridge, redwood top mahog back

Currently has Rios in it that are splitable.

Question 1

Does having the splitable option have any effect on the pickup when it is in humbucking mode?

Q-2

Does having a pull=up on the tone pots have an effect on the pot itself - main reason for asking, is the pot has a very fast taper, and really doesn't seem to do to much - real muddy when rolled all the way back, and then it brightens up, but not in a real gradual way

Q-3

Anyone have any reccomendations for pickups in a redwood topped guitar

Q-4

I love Hamers pots, would switching the pots make a big difference

I have never been into the whole pickup swapping thing - never tried it actually, so these may seem like nebie questions

I have Hauessel's in my semi-hollow Redwood Huber. I cannot imagine a better sounding pickup in that guitar.

1. I don't notice any impact on the pickup in full humbucker mode.

2. Check with Greg about the push-push pots that Nik is using. Really smooth and fully functional puts all the way through the range.

3. See above.

4. It depends on what is in there already. If the pot is a high quality pot it may or may not have an effect. No way to tell without more info.
