You"re right on the UK, and I see the logic. ðð½

I wish you guys hadn't talked about covered vs uncovered humbuckers...I have an LP with uncovered 57 humbuckers and I swear it doesn't sound as warm as my two guitars with covered 57's. Now I'm going to have to look into getting a little muddy LOL!

 

@Larryz - Dial your Volume knobs back somewhere between 8 & 9, it'll roll off a little high end. You want real mud, switch to your Neck PU, and dial the Tone knob back to somewhere between 5 and 7, with the Volume between 8 and 9.

Thanks Winston! I already do what you are describing except for dialing the tone back as far as 5 on the neck pup. I pulled out the LP last night to refresh my memory and found I like the little brighter uncovered pups and will not have my tech cover them. I run both volumes around 8 and crank them up for lead and back for rhythm. I also like working the volumes in the middle position to change the amount of treble or bass. I can also crank up the bridge and use the 3way for lead and rhythm going from neck to middle and back or full treble on the bridge. On the tones, I run them both at 7 or 8. I get just enough mud that way. I have 3 guitars with the same pups, pots, Gibson wiring, etc., so I'm used to getting what I need out of them. I discovered a scratchy pot on the tone knob of my bridge pup and will have a little work to do LOL! Thanks for getting back to me with some cool suggestions!
