AH. I see what he means. DOH.

This is a swimming pool rout.



If yours has no pickguard, then it can't possibly be a swimming pool rout. You'll have to 'korek'. Or just get a stacked humbucker. That way if you decide to sell it, it won't be so difficult to sell.

Also, I guess the EMG-DG20 is out of the question . . . darn. I was also GAS-sing for that when I still had me strat.

oh.. that means i need to buy a stacked humbuck.. stacked humbuck can fit into single coil hole ar ? whats the diff between humbuck and stacked.. what are the PU choices that i have.. state the prices too if can.. hehe

Dude.

Just go to the Seymour Duncan or DiMarzio site.

All the info is there. There are even sound clips to hear the differences.

oh sorry dude..my bad. haha must have been in a hurry to check out any pickups recommended haha

lol at least i know what swimming pool route is hahaha

Thanks..hhm....googling for whatever was mentioned thanks for all inputs

hhhm after listening to da sound samples for SLSD-1 screamin'demon

prefer the SHR-1 still
of course depends on other stuff but SHR-1 sounds nice for me. ok lar..SHR-1

What kinda music you wanna play??

If Metal kinda thingy you can just straight away 'copy' Malmsteen setup with Dimarzio or if you want versatility, maybe can go for Dimarzio & Seymour Duncan combo....

well, no one ever said the screamin' demon was for metal
just the name suggests so.
its actually a medium output pickup.

Malmsteen setup is hardly suitable for metal rhythm. For leads it is ok but for rhythm, single coils just doesn't cut it. Not fat enough and the bass very flabby.

i play mostly rock and metal. nvm lar.....now I'm thinking whether should i get thru my friend from guitar store or another friend who is going from malmsteen's concert at SG
sigh....

do you think if I were to get the pickup from SG it will be cheaper?

thinking should be...but in reality, sometimes it just doesnt apply well....

Get the pickups from eBay America. I got my Dimarzios from one of the power sellers (not 2nd hand, mind you) and saved a whopping RM300++. If you get it from Singapore, I don't think you can save more than RM100 (if prices in Peninsular Plaza can be relied upon as a steady benchmark). Inclusive of belanja-ing your friend to makan & stuff for doing you the favor, it's not really worth it.

Trust me on this. Search for your pickups over the net and make price comparisons before you commit.

Cool....but always beware the hidden cost and sometimes bad deals...not to mention if something goes wrong with your pickup, gotta send back to the other half of the planet and it is not convenient in my book...but then again saving as much is better than to not save at all...

Damn...kinda sad actually...pity you because me too was dissapointed at Woh Fatss operating hours actually...couple of times went there and the shop is closed...darn'it...

ok thanks for the advise..I'm still looking around..work has been busy lately..,thanks guys

^ ever consider mighty mite pickups?
i heard they are high output but very cheap pu...

^and GFS pickups. www.guitarfetish.com
has anybody here tried them yet?

wah
ZW set damn nice haha


DiMarzio Fast Track 2 DP182 good? too bad no sound sample( of course subjective..but at least get to listen to how it sounds)

yeah man.. I spent rm500+++ for this lesson.. haizzz

I guess next time we need to make a call to Woh Fatt if any of us planning to go there...
