TL;DR: yay NGD and how do you like the sound of series/parallel of D-activators?
Yay! So I finally pulled the trigger on a DK24. This is my first MIM guitar.
In several occasions, I was between the DK24 and other guitars, I ended up opting for other guitars. But I always thought the DK24 could be good for me. It turns out it is good!
It did need some fret edge treatment, but that was expected. Fortunately, it didn't need any fretboard edge treatment... this would be a major drawback for me bc this is a finished fb.
One thing is, while the bridge pu SD Full Shred is really articulate and well balanced, it's not as hot as a JB or a Dimarzio Tone Zone.
I have a pair of D-activators that I was planning to put on this guitar, but this one has a bunch of wiring that does all kinds of tricks (inner coils, outer coils and series/parallel switch).
I like the series/parallel sound of the current setup... will D-activator sound good in parallel? Anyone knows?
this is after the fretwork was done
