I recently picked up a Black Hawk set along with a Cobra middle for an H-S-H setup. I’ve heard quite a few players mention that the Black Hawk’s parallel tones are surprisingly good, which got me wondering about something:
When a humbucker set is in an H-S-H configuration (rather than H-H), does the humbucker parallel mode still have tonal merit(or in parallel mode working with middle pickup) , given that the traditional 2 and 4 positions already exist?
