    I love ALL pickups. I love all the sounds I can get out of my tele, it just works like a charm on certain songs. I'm still getting used to my strat, but loving it. I love doing subtle surf-ish tremolo dives, always makes my friend laugh because I can nail that sound. And of course, to be funny, I sometimes throw it in at the end of every song we jam to. Ah..but where were we? Oh yes. Pickups. I only have really played hums or single coils. Love the sound Ed gets from his p-90's though. Ok, now I'm just blabbering.

    I'm the opposite... I prefer darker, thicker guitar sounds. Phat humbuckers, big P-90's, thick Strat sounds...

    And on my acoustic, I don't care for the sound of new strings. I like 'em about 2 months old or older... dark and warm and full. Lots of mid, not so much treble or transients. And spruce is too bright for me, I much prefer cedar or mahogany or koa tops.

    My lead tones I like as thick and nasty as possible... but thick in overdrive not fuzz... Think Neil Young Live Rust tone... but with more of a brit flavor.

    Or Brian May lead tone... creamy and thick.

    Les Paul, PAF Neck, TubeScreamer, Fender Deluxe Reverb.

    I prefer

    P-90 neck pup, two OD808 (not TS-9) set to clean boost, Vox AC-15 type amp (TopHat Club Deluxe was a good one), through two 12 inch brit speakers... g12H30s work well.

    That would be Neil Young - Live Rust with a Brit flavor...

    I went for the original :)

    The neck pup on the 335 I once had did a great job with the AC-15 reissue I had at the time... through two V30s... it was glorious tone...

    Good deal...

    I was thinking you had maybe transferred the amp into a head cabinet... which would be SOOOOO cool.
