  • Hi Frank,

    Just dropping a line to request 7 and 8 string versions of the Fluence Classic pickups. Or maybe a new fangled 3 voiced version of the Classic humbucker for 7s and 8s.
    Hey Frank, Dimarzio question:
    I have a D sonic 7 pup with its fiber(plastic) base plate which is broken on one 'wing' where the mounting screw goes. I made a replacement out of hard plastic but I'm afraid to take off the old one? It has only 4 screws to hold the baseplate. How should I do this? Do I need copper foil or something? Thanks man! Neven

    It looks like this:

    Frank,
    Thanks for all your help in the BMP-1 thread. I'm sure I speak for all of us in there by saying thanks for your info/help.
    Hi Frank,
    I know that you a huge fan of Bartolini pups. I am looking for a versatile rock combo. For example, like in Nuno Bettencourt Washburn N4 (Bill Lawrence L-500L bridge + SD '59 neck) What do you say about PBF-77D/PBF-51 or PBF-77D/PBF-55 sets in alder body/maple neck superstrat? What SD pups similar to these Bartolinis?
    Hello, I have been told you may know where I can find seymour duncan JB 7's for the neck position. Please do tell sir. =)
    Saw your video for Twin Tube Mayhem and I order one right after watching it :)
    Awesome gadget. I love it. Been using it at jams and shows. Never fails!
    Also love my Blackouts & JB/59 combo. Any recommendations for Duncans in Basswood?
    The Blackouts are pretty well balanced. So far we're recommending them in any wood, and they'll let the wood tone come through. Being that they're an active pickup, and we can bend and shape the tonality, there aren't any harsh frequencies in the Blackouts that would be compounded by an overly bright or overly dark guitar. If you find the bridge Blackout to be too bright (but I don't think you will) then the common practice is to simply switch the bridge and neck pickups around. The neck pickup in the bridge is warmer and sweeter, and then the bridge pickup in the neck is a little clearer. But, I will say that there are people who switch the EMG 81 and 85 around, using the 85 in the bridge and 81 in the neck who when they tried the Blackouts left them standard. So definitely put them in standard first.
    Hey!

    I am newbie on 7string.org, and i have one question for you, since i noticed that you know the matter! :D

    I am about to put SD Blackouts in my Washburn WG587 that is made of alder. I wander what do you think what sound they will have in alder, is there a possibility to be too bright or something?

    Do you have any advice?

    Thank you!
