my flatmate has a 96 jagstang in red (fiesta or whatever bullshit) and he really wants teh kurdtz from it. he says the single coil sounds like shit (so does the hum, but that's not where the gayunstraightness spawns from), and he wants to drop something else in it's place. HIS SUGGESTION WAS A FUCKING LIPSTICK TUBE. other than being really ugly, and not fitting properly (from my mild research) please give me other reasons why this is totally gay dude-loving, and uncalled for, and will ruin an already super gay queer guitar. unless you love it.
thanks for your help early.
p.s. ~ when i mentioned the size difference he said he'd just "wrap it in that foam tape stuff." so that let's you know what kind of douche i'm dealing with here. he will see everything posted, so be as honest as you are with me about my saying dude's guitar was homo straight looking, and owning an epi goth LP.

/90% of lipstick pups are low output.
therefor you are taking a medium output pup out and replacing it with something of a lesser value.
you want a better pickup,
put a fucking rails or lace in there.
you want "teh Kurtz" put a seymour duncan jeff beck in there or a super distortion.
Ahem. Well, in seriousness, the problem is really both pups. Personally I'd do a Duncan "made for Jag" single and pick any bucker of his choosing for the bridge. Both really need to be replaced.

I think two angled strat-retrofit lipsticks (mustang guard style) on a [sonic blue] jag-stang would look really awesome and surfy, probably helped by the white pearloid of the guard. The white pickups on jag-stangs has always bothered me aesthetically. Perhaps because they've altered the classic mustang black covers on a white guard scheme, and then put the pearloid on there as well, too cheapo looking. Maybe not CHEAPO, but like, a total minger wearing low-rise jeans going "ooo look at me" while spilling out the waistband like an overbaked french loaf. Tacky.
I'm thinking I'll be salvaging all stangy parts from my JS soon and doing a Warmoth extravaganza the likes of which I will never afford.
