    Ask and ye shall receive!!

    Listening to it played back it sounds out of tune, but please believe me that I tuned it just before. Considering the strings have only been on there for a few days, they are holding their tune rather well.
    Also, I screwed up when calling out the different settings on the hotstack. It should have been Parallel/split/series. I should read things before putting it out on the interwebs!

    Sounds great Daniel. Neck and middle have similar tones whilst the humbucker has that darker edge to it.

    Was only playing the video on low volume and wondered if live there was much discernible difference on the middle hot stack when switching between the settings? May have to watch it again later with headphones on so I can really crank things up.

    Very nice Daniel, my thoughts pretty much reflect what Waz said.

    I think Parallel and Split, there is negligible differences, certainly at low volumes, but in series, the volume is slightly stronger.
    BTW Waz, I'll lower the Humbucker pup as you suggested in the other thread. That certainly is noticeably louder than all of the others!

    I finally got this build into the hands of my mate Mick who is a top guitarist and superb pedal steel player. Loving some of these clean bluesy and country sounds!
