D.I.Y. autodidact
Hi,
it's 3 weeks now since I got my Agile Intrepid 828. I couldn't let my hands of the wiring becaus I want to see (and hear) what I can get out of the stock pickups. After a few days of trying and testing, I did my last soldering today.
Using parts for only a few cents I got some great sounds out of the stock cepheus pickups. This may be interesting for some folks here who don't want to by always new expensive pickups to get some minor changes in sound.
Here is what I did:
1 :: changing strings & tuned to EADGCFAD
2 :: trying some new pickup combination with split & coil filters
3 :: setting 4 positions for a rotary switch
4 :: build in a buffer circuit
5 :: edit the buffered pickups for pleasing sounds
I will write some detailed reports including sound samples during the next few days. Those changes are plainest with the clean and crunchy tones, therefore most of the soundsamples are recorded in clean settings.
stay tuned ...
