Injector & at1 combo: WOW
« on: November 23, 2019, 07:35:37 AM »
Got this combo on my humbucker - single strat.(middle pup disconnected) and great combo!

Injector works good with 500k pots and it's pretty balanced set when u switch back and forth.

I dont comment about inbetween position cause i dont use it.

At1 as i wrote before its my goto bridge humbucker for strats . Injector retains very stratty sound that keeps definition under gain. Finally i found out my goto set ;D

I'm more drown to:

Norton bridge.
Fast Track 1 neck.
Some straty mid, like Virtual Vintage 54 Pro.

Norton is the most versatile bridge pickup ever.
FT1 likes to scream sometimes. :D
and Virtual Vintage for Straty in between. :D

My good pal had Norton bridge, Fast Track 1 neck , HS strat. HS, not HSS.
Man, that guitar was just sick.
For my taste, I would add something in middle on it.
But for his, it was amazing guitar. :D

And yeah, I've seen lot of people get Injector neck with AT-1s nowadays.
But for me, AT-1 is just TOO dark. :/ Good pickup, but DARK.

I got what u mean... My strat is very snappy and bright so the At1 beefs up my axe in a good way

Norton is brighter and in other guitars might fit better.

Btw i love both pickups.

I dont have middle pup case both i dont like inbetween positions and its in the way i use to pick the strings.

I would be super cool with duo of Injector Necks, but not sure of AT-1 bridge. :/
But I have a thing for Injector neck. :D
But AT-1, not for me personaly. :/

But still, I've seen a lot of people who were cool with that combo, and loved AT-1 on bridge.
Just not for me personally.

If you use 500k pots and look for a strat pickup with more output that keeps the sounds that the stratocaster must have I would say is perfect ... at least for my taste

I would love a pickup which is a baby from PAF Pro and AT-1. :D
If there was a pickup which has AT-1 rock and roll character, with tiny bit of PAF Pro brightness, I would buy it instantly no brainer. :D

AT-1 and Injector neck is a great combo, so is Norton and Injector neck. Enjoy.

Probably the moe joe might do the job. Did you try it?

I did have PAF Pro on bridge, too bright for me. Not sure if Mo Joe would be better.
On the other hand, AT-1 was really way too dark. -.-

But to give you non off topic anymore.
3x Injector neck is also good way to go. :D

I don't know from who is this recording, but I had this for a while on PC from someone.
3x Injector neck Strat.

Moe Joe imho is a touch less bright than the Paf Pro it might work.

That is decidedly non-traditionally traditional (or traditionally non-traditional :)). In the olden days you would have had three (more or less) identical pickups in all positions.

Music Man Luke 3 HSS has Injector based singles with Transition bridge, ... Cool option for Steve Lukather.
I've read somewhere on thegearpage, that Luke 3 singles are based on Injectors.

Also, something came to my mind. :D
Do you think DiMarzio will release Lukes Injectors or they will stay exclusively for Music Man Luke 3 HSS?
And do you think that they are answer to Seymour Duncans in Ibanez TQM1 guitar?
