Hi there. Not sure if this is of value, but it might be intersting for some of you who love and play their Sterling HH or HS and sometimes miss the parallel bridge-humbucker sound of the single H model.
I found out that using a simple Enhancer effect pedal (e.g. the Enhancer in the Boss GT10-B) can change the sound of the bridge humber (Position 1, both coils wired in series) so that it comes close to the sound of the parallel wired humbucker.
In fact it is only (selectable) bass and treble frequencies that are boosted whilst the mids are cut. You can achieve similar results by just rolling down the mids of the onboard EQ while boosting the treble (not necessarily the bass) but I feel that the Enhancer pedal comes closer and can even be fine-tuned to get a sound that reminds me of the 2-Band Stingray.
Let me know your thoughts.
Cheers!
