Sinner feedback needed
« on: January 22, 2010, 05:52:56 PM »
I'd love to hear some feedback from you Sinner owners. Tim recommended  the Sinner in the bridge and Trilogys in the middle/neck. Anyone playing their Strat through that set up?

I have fitted that combo a number of times - excellant choice
Last customer had a liking for Richie Blackmore/Deep Purple /Yngwie etc and it worked a treat
Sinner in the bridge matches nicely with trilogies - gives a bit more OOMPH!

I'm curious too, what are the middle 2 and 4 positions like with the S/T/T set?

Does it really have Humbucker balls?

It will drive your amp hard - but it still sounds like a strat single coil (albeit a very meaty one)

Yep it does. Here's a clip I done with the Sinner.

I guess I could tweek it a bit with my amps eq and a pedal or two.  All and all it sounds like what I'm looking for.  Do you have Trilogys in the neck/ mid?

i do - they sound more classic strat than you would imagine, but with a good dose of compression. keeps up with the sinner in terms of output - good match. tim overwinds them a bit to go with the sinner.

the neck and middle of the slowhand set are meatier (IMO) - however they don't have the same level of compression  YMMV
