the duncan p rails! Vrad came over last night and was good enough to deal with the complex wiring...but the results were well worthit... I'm really impressed by the humbucker mode..based on reviews and the clips online (which there aren't very many of..and frankly most of them stink...except for the yamaha pacifica rep vid and the video on the actual duncan site) I wasn't expecting much from the bucker..but it rips..clear, beefy, not spikey or harsh, percussive as hell the p 90 sounds killer as well..like a cross between a single and a bucker..just enough twang the single coil is pretty good too..good for rolling off the volume for some slightly dirty funk/blues stuff... all in all, I haven't smiled this much after putting in a new pickup in a long time...I'm not sure the pick guard with the Injector is ever going to be in this guitar again..hehe..maybe I'll put that in another cheapo beater.... here's a pic:

I've never got a chance to try one in the bridge but I had one in the neck of a tele and loved everything except single mode. Very cool pickup congrats

I'm glad I didn't have to wire that up I had my sights set on a Reeves Gabrel model but for the price, I couldn't pass this one up. It just kept calling to me and it looks like it wants to RAWK! Haha we'll see. When it comes in we'll have to arrange a rape date. Oh, if motorcop could only hear me now lol
