PG Blues
« on: September 02, 2012, 08:14:22 PM »
First, very good pickups!! I love my Rebel Yell Set, but for my ES 335 Copy-  it is tonal heaven.
My Question, what kind of resistor are you using for neck: 22mf or lower? Did you use the BKP Schematics? And, what option did I have with a push pull pot?
Thanks!

Hi Jens,

I think BKP recommends .022 capacitors for bridge tone, and .047 for neck on Les Pauls (someone will correct me if I'm wrong).

The PG Blues comes with 2 conductor wiring, so I don't think you have any options on a push-pull pot. If you wanted that, you could buy a set of unpotted Stormy Mondays with 4 conductor wiring.

Here´s the correction mate ;)
.022 for the bridge but .015 for the neck is what BKP says.
BKPs in use: 10th set / RY set / Holy Diver b, Emerald n / Crawler bridge, Slowhand mid MQ neck/ Manhattan n
On the sidelines: Stockholm b / Suppermassive n, Mule n, AM set, IT mid

That makes more sense! Thanks. I thought it was weird to lose more treble on the neck pickup.
