Saw you at the Johny Winters show at Bb Kings in NYC , great show lots of fun,
Also Andy Aledort was very impressive!
Any way trying to figure out what pickups to put in a guitar we are building, thanks for the tips in this video.

@MTLguitarist98 yes, the motherbuckers, minihumbuckers, EMG, lace sensor.

skip to 2:50

very helpful, thanks man!

@taurus1269 you could try Seymour Duncan. They make a variety of SC sized Humbuckers like the little '59 or Hot Rails.
-
@veryhighsamurai coil splitting and coil tapping are the same thing; what happens is that one coil of the humbucker is taken out of the circuit.
-
@store1992 depends on your amp. If you have a modelling amp like the line 6 spider or POD etc .. you won't hear much of a difference between guitars and or pickups. The problem with some modelling gear is that the amp emulation often does not respond dynamically enough.

@TheEternalLeader or you could by a gibson or epiphone nighthawk custom, it has a H S Mini HB setup and the coils of the humbuckers can be split. It goes from an SG type of sound to a Tele or Strat in the fraction of the second it takes you to pull the tone knob.
-
@MatKiller1197 that is because the coils of a humbucker are wired in series but have reverse polarity. It causes the stray signal to appear twice but due to the fact that the coils are wired in countephase the stray signals cancel each other out almost completely.
-
At 3:01 you said that single coil and humbucker pickups are the most popular... Are there other kinds of pickups?
go to 1:59 , the show is very entertaining bit.
