Pickup Issues

Well I Need Help Fast!!!!!

Well The Thing Is.....I'm Falling In Love With My Y2D's Pickups And I'm Not Using My Blue Morse Anymore Witch I'M Actually Very Upset About, Cause I Just Cant Get It To Sound Like My Y2D, Any Options?\

The Pickups Seem To Have More Of A Punch On The Y2D The My Blue Morse Is More Soft, Should I Tweak The Amps Settings Up A Little More, Tell Me What You Think!

ok let me get this right...



Ok This One First!

I Like This: N & B For The Y2d

For The Blue Morse Original Its A Little More Confusing In A Way For Me...

"Adds Pickup 1 To What You Selected On The Lever" So I Switch That And Use The Two Way Switch, Do I Leave The 3 Way Switch Center Position? no its down position on the three way switch i see.

Gosh Every Time I Think I'm Done There's Something Else To Add!

Ok Let Me Cut To What I'm Trying To Say, Not Sure If The Pickups Are The Same, But How Would I Get The Pickups Combination Like From The Y2D "N & B" On My Original Morse?

On My Blue Morse 4 And 1?

 

[GuitaRasmus]

Solder out the two toggle switches and the singlecoil closest to the neck, and replace the 3 way with a 5 way lever switch - but why have 2 identical guitars?

And yes, as far as I know the pickups are exactly the same.

 

[guitarman23]

well the y2d is a floyd for some other songs i use, but i seem to get a better sound out of the y2d for some reason.


any chance anyone knows how steve's wiring is in this? I Know From Listening From One Of The Videos, Little Confusing But If Someone Can Help Me Out That Would Be Great.

2-way ON (down) & lever CENTER = 4&1

I think the punch is also mainly attributed to the maple top on the Y2D... Both are very different guitars wood-wise, and I think you can't get them to sound alike so simply...

+1. That's the ticket.

The Floyd is going to change the sound somewhat, so there will be a tonal different between the guitars.

But the Y2Ds pickups are a tad hotter. So you could try raising the pickups on your Morse, that might get you closer to the sound you're looking for. (Though Steve leaves them low.)
