So those beasties are based on Trilogies then?

Andy!


The neck and middle are basically Trilogies as I understand it. The bridge is a 25k monster which apparently has nearly as much wire on there as a Warpig humbuucker. 15000 winds or thereabouts. I have it screwed down so far it looks like the worlds first low profile pickup :D

Basically Hayden's got a customised Sinner bridge and Trilogy neck pickup.
The bridge is insanity...........it takes ages to wind but worth it! 8)

The 'rents won't let me buy a bike...

And how the hell am I supposed to get my Fallen Angel about?  It's bad enough getting it down the stairs!

Hey all, thought I'd share a clip of my Custom wound single coils.

The pickups are mounted in a 90 Strat+ with a standard five way and a 'Tele' switch. The bridge pickup is over 22k and the neck and middle around 13.

Starts with clean on all five positions (2 and 4 on the swtich are in in...er...Parallel I think making it a humbucker of sorts) the last is of the bridge and neck pups together.

After this we have a distorted clip of the bridge and neck then some noodling over a potted backing track. hope you like....cause I love these things :)


Okay, it still wont let me upload to here so please follow the link and click on the demo link :)

Thanks everyone for checking it out. The Vai references are kind of funny for me cause I only own one of his albums, I guess what I have heard stuck fast though! :) All I can say is thank god I don't listen to the Maestro Alex Gregory too often  :twisted:

What a tone!! Impressive!

Tim: what pair of BKP humbuckers would sound like this Sinner Custom bridge and Trilogy neck? I ask because I have no room for the SC, but I have a HH alder guitar that would like to get the same tone ;-)

the closest would be the Warpig its DC is 22K so the custom sinner isn't far off! It also has alnico V magnets like the sinner.

It would be nice if Tim could confirm Warpig have the same tone, because there is no clip of it for now.
