    Damn, the puns are starting early this year!!
    Here's the Video Demo. My mate Trev did the honours again. I have another short video uploading to YouTube now, so I'll post that when it's finished.
    This video is mostly of the Hotstack in the middle played in Parallel, later he combines it with the Humbucker at the Bridge. I'll do my own video with my limited skills showing off each switch selection and Hotstack version.

    Here's Video #2
    This is just the neck Pup


    I had another 1:30+ video of the Bridge Humbucker, but for some reason it recorded upside down. When I tried to change it over, it only kept 15secs of it, and of course, I deleted the original without checking out how long the corrected video went for!

    Let there be rock!

    Sounds good. Keen to hear each pup clean and then dirty without so much delay and chorus so we can get a better idea of what sounds it produces.

    Yep, I'll be doing this over the next couple of days. Stay tuned!
    Trev really loved how hot the humbucker was, but he had no real complaints about the sound at all.

    Sounds like those pickups have enough output for decent rock and metal tones, I'm pretty interested in hearing what the guitar sounds like with a dry, clean sound with no effects too.

    A couple of possible upgrades that I could suggest is maybe upgrade the bridge to a SuperVee Bladerunner, and upgrade the tuners to a set of lockers, like some Sperzels for example.

    Here's a link to the SuperVee website:
