Okay I just got the jist of it and that actually sounds cool as shit. So you get the standard humbucker sounds with a 500k pot, and then with the pot pulled you get all the buckers split + a 250k pot. That's legit awesome.

Yeah. I was skeptical at first. But after putting the terminator evo on my no.1 guitar, I was stoked on how much a difference it made sonically.

They have a few variations of the system but I went with the Ten because the extra options were exactly my objective for the intended guitar.

Given I'm trying to discover more passive options for pickups as well, seems like it would be a cool thing to explore. Need to give the Duncan Full Shred another try.

While I need more guitars like I need more holes in my head, and I'm prioritising an RGD hardtail (hoping for something new shows up in NAMM), 3 Ibbys came up for grabs...

^^^ Gah... That sparkle! But I can't afford a Suhr... was actually looking at some sub $300 Squire's on Reverb last night. Was thinking p/u swap and good to go.

What about the G&L Doheny. They’re like $599 new and I’ve seen them mint or on sale around $400

I'm thinking of either grabbing a G&L ASAT classic tele, or just doing another tele build. I might do a cabronita/p90 inspired build this time.

There’s the ASAT with their extended range P90-like pickups

Uggh. Be still my heart.

Dragonfly Sottile Custom 648 in Tans Dark Blue. Very similar to ESP's Indigo Purple

If I could just stop buying ESP's then I could actually get other things. But, who am I if I have something other than ESP's? I just don't know.

I don't know man, Dragonfly and Sugi have really blotchy versions of northern lights (or whatever people want to call it). ESP less so, but I've seen some flakey ones too.

I've been pleased with the products I've seen! But, I'll take your word for it!

2020: Everyone wants teles and JMs

I’m kind of split down the middle because I want an offset body shape but the tele pickup configuration, the recent prestige talmans seem like an easy pick

I had been wanting a shreddy guitar or baritone to complement my two Core PRS, but played my buddy's old, natural-finished SC-607B recently. Great feel + the 2nd stock price through ESP direct made me pull the trigger on one of the newer models.

Major GAS for one of these MIJ mahog Offset Teles that seem to have debuted last/this year as LTD models at a few stores. GC had a listing up for 2020 but it got taken down recently, strangely.
