Call me Wierdo

I Was thinking about an Sum Passive trebble booster
Sum shit like

Mustang Controls :
Neck-Both-Bridge /////// Humb Split - Series - Paralell /////
Plate Controls :
Vol-Pushpull no1 (Off Phase) /// Tap-O-Matic-Pushpull no2 (sum passive Trebble Booster)

(PS. The Tap o matic is that , ) looks amazing , http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/2194/sum96tipqj6.jpg


don´t tell me it´s impossible
see an example , Roy Buchanan At monster Tribute to elmore

see the treble booster in action :

what a hell you talking ice ? is be far roy buchanan guitar was an sum trebble booster thing and custom pickups where i saw that ? Fender forum be far and i saw an some guy got the guitar in hands , did clone of pickups and got how it´s maded and selling was Nancy's Heart , http://www.buckcannon.com/ if is an lie i do no , i don´t hear in person to get ...

example of an wierdo mid booster , http://www.guitar-mod.com/rg_passive.html

i want do some shit like that , anyone got any ideia how i can do an treble booster over 6 pins of an pullpull ? Capacitors ? Resistors ? any thing like that ?


sincere ...

its impossible

or just use low output single coils for treble. We do.

um, the jaguar "strangle switch" is essentially a passive treble booster.

treble boost is the same as a bass cut, depending on how you look at it.

I've done this. It's crap, theres no taper to it, and why should there be? A coil is either grounded properly or not. You are better off with a switch

cut bass will be nice idea , i don´t knew how i gonna do that on an push pull but whatever :lol:


and about single coils , my jag gonna have an Seymour Duncan Lipstick SLSn , is low output far i knew was gigantic treble and jangle sound
wood of guitar was Ash neck is maple , both boost treble :lol:
but i was hungry and wanting more and more and them i thinking about the treble mod :lol:


i gonna check jaguar shematic

Definitely interesting, but ultimately a ripoff.
With the right capacitor and method you can get your tone knob working just like a wah. (in the Low-pass range, anyway)

paying 55 for basically 6 caps is nuts

actually was an switch , modded mustang switchs wiring

neck-both-bridge // Split - Series - Paralell
Phase-off at push pull , works when Both pickups are "on"

so the tapping thing don´t works :(

thats my point i dont gonna pay price of an duncan pickup on pot whit capacitors lol
thats why i tryng develop my self booster or bleeder o matic or something like :lol:




if i ........ put one .015 capacitor and one 750k resistor like that , http://www.projectguitar.com/tut/potm.htm
on the push pull , some risk i fry the pickups ? haahahhaha

Kudos. The little transformer, as cool as it is, is probably the best you can do for a high pass filter, but will ultimately not work as good as you'd probably like. Bass Cut is simple and works great.

If you are using a push/pull you can have the bass cut on or off, so yes you'd bypass the bass cut with no effect on your regular tone.

talking about slaught bass

i need investigate that , http://www.glguitars.com/schematics/S-5 ... iagram.pdf

thats was cool idea cut bass and improvise treble , need see if it´s works :lol:
if works i need transport the idea into the push pull for the bass cut over the roll and the trebble thing over the push pull replacing the tap-o-matic thing

Just get a pedal.

Yeah, an EQ pedal will do that, and a load of other tones.

So would the EQ on one of the three channels of the amp we'll never get to hear.

I think those designs are awesome but ulitimately flawed. The original Armstrong Orange Sqeezers came in that format and had to stop because you couldn't use em on strats because of their crazy output jack plates.
