Well, they're in


Wiring - CTS 500K pots, two of which are push-push, one to put
the two pups out of phase and one as a kill switch.


The Warpig, well I don't have to tell you anything about thins pickup
that hasn't been said in this forum before,
The PIG90 was a mistery for me, when I think P90, Leslie West comes to mind
this thing is it with tons more, very powerfull P90, lots of bass,
nothing you'd expect from a single coil pickup.
if you're into P90s, this thing would amaze you.

The PIG90 is massive, huge, when I usually try palm muted power chord rhythm playing with
the neck pickup, it doesn't sound right,  with the pig90, the bass that comes
out of the amp is HUGE, it hits you hard, and that suprised the hell out of
me, didn't expect that. and the treble is there, it doesn't turn the riff into mush.

I'll do some recording over the weekend and post it here.
