Single Coil In A Humbucker Slot
This is not a humbucker or a P90, it's a Single Coil In A Humbucker Slot, to be more precise, this is a strat pickup in a humbucker slot. If you'd like to fit a stratocaster pickup in a humbucker slot then you'll need a 52mm humbucker baseplate, a 52mm humbucker-sized p90 cover and some humbucker mounitng screws.
If you're finding your humbucker neck pikcup too dark and want the strat chime from a humbucker then this is probably the way to go.

This Telly with stock pups are much better...
I have the same Telecaster version, I quite like it although my favourite Telecaster is my Squier 1984 Japanese, bought it new and it was set up just as I like them, the intonation was close to perfect although I have compensated saddles on it now, no high frets, the action was perfect, not too high not too low, I have recently changed to a Tusq nut as the original one got a crack in it. I bought better string trees years ago as the butterfly ones are horrible, I still have the original ones and have been thinking of spraying the bottom of them with PTFE and re-installing them as the ones I have on at the moment look odd on an old Tele. I have never changed the pickups as they sound awsome, I would put it up against any Fender USA Telecaster, IMO it is the perfect Telecaster.
I have 11 Classic Vibe (China and Indonesia) and i love this one...the pup on brigde is great for 90s Brent Mason and the neck pup is for ALL... No plans to "upgrade"...the sounds come from hands and EQ...
Wow. I like it very much. Is it a tele-pickup? I am considering to put an active single coil in the nech. In my LesPaul with 24,75 scale-length 😉
22 frets? I's a P neck with 20 frets!
Are these wired in series or just parallel?
Why didn't you just adjust the adjustable neck???
Got both irx and ird. Amazing products !
I just bought the same two packs,, I think they advertise they’ll last two years,,we’ll see if they last longer maybe less corrosion or some coating applied?but I’ll put them on and let you know if that’s true
Subbed to help the channel get bigger!
honestly I like yours better, that finish looks amazing!
Have the 40th anniversary telecaster in mocha... Awesome guitar especially for the little coin
This is awesome work.
Sry gshhhhh sry 😂😂
Yeah well goaties look worse
I kept hearing a squeaky mouse in between chords
What a total waste of a guitar. 👎
"Aight, everyone get your coq out" 😂😂😂 Just a bit a banter
Chappers is more of a robot than a man by now
You couldn't get a good sound out of the Helix? 😂, yes it takes some learning curve, but with dual cabs now and the latest updates, poly fxs I tried the cheapest ampero and temu "multi fx processor" freaking junk! Always go back to Helix it sounds the same weather I'm in my studio or in stage running FOH and 1/4 out to powered ffr and runs midi to my other pedals, I'll stick to what I know sounds good, and is supported by line 6 and the vast resources of Yamaha their not done with Helix yet I m not either,!
To get your humbuckers to sit level with the strings, stick the foam they use behind bass picikups in there. It's a thick, soft squishy foam, similar to what's used around doors and windows to weather seal them.
Thts what I used. For some reason, this guitar just would not have it. Changing the pickups so will see what’s going on soon
If you want the stain to get deeper into the flame, thin down the dye with thinners. Then build up the colour. I have to say I simply use danish oil as it allow me to alter design after and simply reapply.
Great video. I’m buying on this week.
My Squier Affinity Telecaster string thru has a DiMarzio Chopper bridge pickup. Earnie balls .09 gauge, Original Fender tuner pegs. Thinking of changing the pots to 500K, and maybe swap the bridge to a Fender original one, and maybe if i go full crazy ill buy a rosewood original Fender telecaster neck! In other words, the only thing Squier about the guitar when i'm done with it is the body lol
It's an amazing little thing - you can get to stompbox mode by holding down the left footswitch. Hold down right gives you tap tempo. What I really like - it has global controls for IR on and off on each of the stereo outs independantly. In my rig the one side goes DI out with an IR and the other feeds a power amp to a real cab.
Can't believe we have two guitars dudes, playing guitar on a guitar themed yt channel and they play three guitars which aren't in tune...... Bloody hell
Tone riders Ac 4 set are absolutely brilliant in my Les Paul and alnico 8 bridge in my ESP DEFINITELY recommend checking them out, saved me some coin and couldn’t be happier, I’m looking now for the right set for my strat, do your research and choose the right one though, which is true of any pickup
I hear the difference. Fat 50’s sound slightly stronger, brighter but also smoother. They sound just like a Strat should sound clean
Wish you would have done this with an 8 so I could 3d print one lil
I did this to a Fender Mustang bass so our big band can fit on smaller stages.
Squire guitar's are okay they are fine for biginners or intermediate players to have something good to learn on. I would suggest changing the tuners and the pick ups but that's my opinion...
Love mine, paid £719 for it
Great mods! I’m going to go for the TR vintage plus and the obsidian with 4way splitter. Can you share where you bought the pickguard and the model, please? I’m trying to replace mine for a simple black one but I need one that fits perfectly 🤷♂️
As visual creatures we quickly get used to nonsense alike, thus mentioning it while ranting about the looks coming off as unappealing is a non sequitur, right?
Just did the mod, thx, peace of cake!
Love it ..i was this guy...now im a total convert
Do you have a link to the brass plates you used at the bottom of the legs? My dad left me a bourbon barrel and I’m going to make one of these.
REALLY helpful video mate, I'm about to buy these pickups. Thank you so much for putting this together! :)
JT350 don't have the roasted neck, the JT300 range do for some reason...I have the JT300 Tele and they are excellent for the money..
How microphonic is it with all that air?
It’s not. The Strat pickup is wax potted
Glitches when engaging effects on and off external swich is useless as it cant select presets only turn fx on and off which results in glitches for a second after pressing the switch as the system has to load like a slow pc. Not suitable for live use. I use one for Band rehearsals and i absolutely hate it. Tone wise its OK not great but has no dynamic range so gets lost in mix when band starts to dig in. Plus the unit I received has a loose screen that rattles.
You're full of shit. Difference is very subtle, at best. Easily sorted with amp tone controls.
There’s an external set of extra switches you can get for more stompy options
Thanks from Germany ❤️🇩🇪
Great side by side bravo
I actually preferred the DI better. A bit more on the raw open end sound which would be heard more in the mix IMO. Would you still recommend one of these? I used to use the Boss GT8 for years and years, then moved to the Avid 11 rack. Now looking for something new but not too expensive. Thanks for any input.... Cheers Jake
Love the Invader and actually like the fact that it has presence and mighty low end that connects with the bass. Really dominates and roars in Metal mixes and probably a reason why it remains Karl Sander’s pick up of choice in Nile.
Going off your review and the epiphone comparison I'm going to order one next week, many thanks
It’s actually pronounced hot tone apparently accordingly to a video I saw of someone working one of their stalls at a show. I’ve got one and it’s a decent little orange box
