irish_punk13 ok i decided too put pickup rings around my pickups and when i took off the pickgaurd i noticed that there is enough space in there too install another humbucker.so my question is whats a good ''bucker too go in the middle position on my jag.oh and i need a sound somewhere between soundgarden and nirvana and i play through a 1980s peavey. i beleive the model name is tnt 100 i dont know thats what it says on the front of the amp.well thanx in advance.
funtoosh you already have two humbuckers in there, so why not put a hot single coil/p90 (e.g. the SD phat cat) in between?and welcome to the forum ,-}

irish_punk13 funtoosh said: we're far more cool, of course.well im hoping that by adding in another humbucker ill be able to get rid of the acoustic overtones it creates cause i feel it makes the sound less heavy
jacksonjackass ❗Acoustic overtones as you've put it is caused by the swimming pool route. It makes the pickguard act like a soundboard on an acoustic guitar 😉The only thing you can do is glue a piece of wood it to stop it from vibrating

Robbmonster I wasn't happy with my Jagmaster, so I am putting a Squier 51 neck pickup (single coil) in the middle, and swapping out the bridge pickup for one from a Tele Deluxe.Drop a PAF copy in there, leave it wide open, and voila, tonal variation.
irish_punk13 mcconnachiea said: You'd get even more tonal options with a single therewell i think im gonna do a coil tap so i think ill get more tone options doing it this way.i can get the tone options from the three humbuckers and than i can switch to a tone simmilar to a strat
curtc Remember that there's magnetics between pickups and it can influence the sound of your pickups. 😵

JaguarOW curtc said: Remember that there's magnetics between pickups and it can influence the sound of your pickups. 😵i think hes talking about the more pickups you put in, the more pull from the magnets and so the less sustain?
irish_punk13 curtc said: Remember that there's magnetics between pickups and it can influence the sound of your pickups. 😵well i dont care much about sustain cause the only time i ever play solos and stuff where sustain matters im using my distortion pedal.and also i cant seem to get much sustain anyways so its not that big of a deal.
