Hot Rod Humbucker Set
Hey guys. I just got a set of the HR Humbuckers installed. They seem much brighter than my stock pickups and there's really not that much dynamic difference. I am wondering if there installed correctly? Is there anything I can do to drop off some of the treble highs.? I have a maple neck so I have to believe that has something to do with it. Thanks

Use 300 or 250K pots.
Re: Hot Rod Humbucker Set
yeah, you'll probably want to go with 250K-300L pots; until you've got that organised you should be able to work around it via the tone control/s and amp EQ.
treble on 4, mid on 7 and bass on 2 (for example, obviously) might look weird, but you've got to trust your ears

It was refreshing to see Australians abroad, sober. I almost didn't recognise them.

When this forum talks about getting wood, we're usually thinking of flamed maple.

How close are they to the strings? That can make a big difference.

This. Lowering them, even a little, might be all you need to do.Originally Posted by kjrocks

Re: Hot Rod Humbucker Set
thanks for all the advice as soon as I get a chance to change out the pots I will let you know how I make out.

I think JB's sound much better, fuller and warmer, with A2 magnets.
