Suoer D + Hum From Hell
« on: July 02, 2016, 01:13:12 PM »
Opinions needed.

Super D in the bridge and a Humbucker From Hell in the neck of a Les Paul Standard.

Are the two, too far apart in power and dynamics to be a tag team?

I think Paul Gilbert used that combo in racer,his neck tone was soooo huge & fluid

I think volume wise you could adjust the heights of each pickup to match. However, the bridge will have a definite different feel and overall higher gain/drive than the neck pickup. That really depends if you like it or not

Which Racer X period/albums are you refering to?

Hey jazz how you doing??? Still shredding I hope.I remember seeing that in an old(early 2000's) dimarzio catalog.Has to be hfh or super 2,cause at that time Paul was also using TONE ZONE and or air classic but I maybe wrong.Seems the hfh would be hot but "clean" giving it an almost single coil tone in the neck...then again I maybe wrong
