Just wondering if anyone is using high gains and scatterwounds on the same Rick.
Like one of each (330 or 360) or 2 of one type one of another (370 or 340)

Kevin: I have had scatterwound toasters and a single high gain on my 350. At one point I had a toaster, a high gain and a humbucker on it. I currently have a single high gain in the neck position and two hot toasters at the middle and bridge.

Hey thanks for the reply.
I thought someone might have toyed with the idea and found it quite useful.

That 350 sounds like a laboratory experiment!

I tried HB1s and the original hi gains(2005) that came on my 330FG in various combinations, but wasn't happy with any of them. I then put 2 toasters on her and really liked the sound. RIC has since come out with a new hi-gain with adjustable pole pieces, so I just recently slapped them in for comparison. I'm still tinkering around with them, but the neck is very sweet, and may end up getting a toaster cover put on it to match the toaster I may be putting back in the bridge position. I'm still on the fence though.
