Tonezone riffing

[duck2587]

Sweeps arent bad..just turn down the gain or get a better amp. Remember most of your tone comes from your amp and fingers together. pick ups are just a part of it.

[MrBurnyAM]

How does it handle lower tuning?

[back2thefutre]

is that a warmoth dude?

[matrags]

No tone just distortion as far as I can hear.

[DarthMorbius1977]

Gain knob... turn it about a quarter turn counter clockwise... You'll thank me later.

[iluv2laugh978]

Are you sure?

That would increase the gain. Might be a bit excessive.

[DarthMorbius1977]

COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to decrease

CLOCKWISE to increase...

[niteridr666]

i kno wat you mean

i do the same thing. my tone is awesome

[basscrazy230]

the tonezone is a great sounding pickup i have one in my charvel. its pretty versatile.

[panuelo87]

i sense something like metal zone pedal... mosquito attack

[Guitarwiz4400]

TOO DISTORTED

[rockbas2]

loco cambia tu pedal suena como el pico

[metalh3dd]

im trying to decide whether to put a tone zone or a mo' joe or a Fred in my japanese strat...help me out somebody

[jacksyn123]

I really like my tonezone in the bridge

it's great for whatever style you might wanna do

great pinch harmonic response and crunch for metal and distorted stuff

very articulate for speed picking runs, especially in the lower fret region

[GMSAnubis]

/5 i was looking for a demo of tonezone :p I want to put in on my jem. You put it in neck position?

[jacksyn123]

Bridge actually (in vid description ^__^)

I've heard it's good for both positions

I love my neck though, PAF pro

amazing for lead work

See my latest sweep video to get a better idea of its sound

[Imat00l]

I love that pickup! My search for full size humbuckers finally ended with the tone zone. Try wiring that pickup to a on/on/on DPDT switch for parallel/single coil/series switch then hook that switch to a push/pull 500k pot for a phase switch. You'll have to drill into that pick guard though

[jacksyn123]

ahh!

that sounds crazy haha

when I find myself running out of sounds I might do something like that

mm, and I have a hole that's taped up for another switch/pot

[malignus]

those sweeps aren't so bad, i own a tone zone too, great pickup! good for metal but for old school rock too!

[jacksyn123]

Thanks man!

I'm gonna get some sweeping videos up soon hopefully

I've improved greatly since this video (or so i'd like to believe ^__^)

[brandon5pennies]

do you think its better than d activators as far as clarity and cleans go?

[Rhaabjorn]

I have a d activator and tone zone. When doing power chords I find tone zone sounds huge, and more darker but not muddy. I like the d activator more though. For cleans I really dont like the tone zone on that, but I never tried it in parallel so maybe that could help, it also didnt work well for me when split with other pickups. The d activators sounded much better clean, especially when you roll the volume knob down.

[petrucci80nez]

hi rhaabjorn , wich pickup have more harmonics , i play a lot of pantera stuff, and I want to play de dime harmonics wich one its best for this ?

[Rhaabjorn]

d activator would be more better then the tone zone, or else a duncan dimebucker or bill lawrence l500xl
