anotherfreak Posted February 6, 2014 Author Posted February 6, 2014 Oh, it's "humbucker" sized, that makes sense. It's not a Motherbucker
burningyen Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 A nice addition if you find yourself wishing you had more frets.
gorch Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 If not a motherbucker I'd sid it's a daughterbucker. How can you wire them?
veatch Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Novembucker? Heh.... There's still room for another single coil at the bridge...ETA: or better: a Roland Hex pickup...
JohnnyB Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Heh.... There's still room for another single coil at the bridge...ETA: or better: a Roland Hex pickup... To get all the potential sounds out of it there should be on/off toggle switches for each of the nine coils.
velorush Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Saw that this morning (looking at single coil pickups on their site). Interesting and the specs were pretty nice: Output Rating (Bass/Middle/Treble) Humbucking: 5/6/6 Single-coil: 5/5/6 DC Resistance Humbucking: 10.5k ohms Single-coil: 6.0k ohms Inductance Humbucking: 7.1 henries Single-coil: 2.5 henries If not a motherbucker I'd sid it's a daughterbucker. How can you wire them? Six conductor wiring, so Any Color You Like!
velorush Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Hey, found this on the Anderton's site (describing the Modern Player guitar in the first photo): Only question this raises for me is, in Position 2, are all three coils in parallel or series (the writeup only says "activates all three coils" so I'm guessing parallel)? Parallel would yield output lower than Position 1.
gorch Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Where is the middle pickup in that chart. I think it means a different setup.
veatch Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Heh.... There's still room for another single coil at the bridge...ETA: or better: a Roland Hex pickup... To get all the potential sounds out of it there should be on/off toggle switches for each of the nine coils. And another nine mini switches for phase...
crunchee Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I wonder what the magnetic pull would be like on the strings, if you did have three of those pickups. Three of 'em makes it look like it'd be handy for grating cheese or shredding cabbage.
Hackubus Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 I'm such a sucker for 3 humbuckers, that the blue monstrosity above even appeals to me.
velorush Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Where is the middle pickup in that chart. I think it means a different setup. THIS is the Fender Modern Player Jaguar (referenced in the diagram): THIS is the Modern Player Jaguar after a bit of Photoshop: If you are using a PC, use CTRL+ half a dozen times to blow up the image and you'll see the strings aren't continuous across the neck and middle positions.
hamerhead Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Maybe they're building a really small Strat.
anotherfreak Posted February 7, 2014 Author Posted February 7, 2014 When I first saw it, my first thought was MOTHERBUCKER, I did see the wiring chart, and was thinking of the possibilities, THEN I saw the actual size, and was EVEN MORE excited there's a lot of options in a small package. If it sounds worth the dime?
tbonesullivan Posted February 8, 2014 Posted February 8, 2014 dang... that would be more complicated than my EBMM steve morse, and that took me a week to finally remember how to work it.
